چکیده

A case is presented in which pancytopenia was associated with marrow mastocytosis and abnormal erythroid precursors. At post-mortem tuberculosis of the serous cavities was found. The possible significance of these findings is discussed. Acknowledgments We wish to express our thanks and appreciation to Dr J. H. Wright under whose care the patient was investigated. The help and co-operation of Professor A. S. Douglas is also acknowledged, and we are very much indebted to Professor J. V. Dacie and Professor H. W. Fullerton for kindly reviewing the blood and marrow films.

Promoting probiotics survival by microencapsualtion with Hylon starch and genipin cross-linked coatings in simulated gastro-intestinal condition and heat treatment

Microencapsulation with hydrocolloids as a modern technique has been used to prolong the survival of probiotics during exposure to harsh conditions. In this study, alginate-Hylon starch microcapsules with genipin cross-linked chitosan and poly-L-lysine coatings were developed to encapsulate four strains of probiotic bacteria, including Lactobacillus casei (ATCC 39392), Bifidobacterium bifidum (...
