In the Tropics more small drops and less large drops were found in oceanic precipitation than in continental precipitation at the given reflectivity. Similarly, more small drops and less large drops were found in remnants of a tropical cyclone than in frontal precipitation in mid-latitude site at the same reflectivity. The presence of small drops was higher in deep convective regime than in str...

purpose: to compare the efficacy of treatment with fortified cefazolin-gentamicin versus fortified vancomycin-ceftazidime eye drops for treatment of bacterial corneal ulcers. methods: a double-blind clinical trial was performed on 89 patients with bacterial corneal ulcers who were referred to feiz hospital, isfahan, iran from 2004 to 2005. patients were randomly assigned to two groups: one grou...

tears have antimicrobial, nourishing, mechanical, and optical properties and contain components such as growth factors, fibronectin and vitamins to support proliferation, migration and differentiation of corneal and conjunctival epithelial cells. lack of these epitheliotrophic factors, as in dry eye, can result in severe ocular surface disorders such as persistent epithelial defects. recently, ...

The purpose of the studies was to choose additives for eye drops containing cefazolin and the assessment of the influence of used additives and the storage temperature on the physicochemical properties and the stability of the eye drops. The drops were 1% sterile solutions of cefazolin in citrate buffer of pH 6.15-6.20. The drops were preserved with 0.002% thiomersal or 0.001% phenylmercuric bo...

The aim of the studies was to determine with HPLC method the stability of ceftazidime in buffered 1% and 5% eye drops of proposed formulary composition, which were stored for 30 days at the temperature of 4 degrees C and 20 degrees C and protected from light. The 1% and 5% eye drops were prepared under aseptic conditions by dissolving Biotum (ceftazidimum), dry injection formulation, in citrate...
