It belie...

7or-(4'-Amino)phenylthio-l,4-androstadiene-3,17-dione(7a-APTADD), a potent enzyme-activated irreversible inhibitor, was examined in two different human cell culture lines, MCF-7 human mammary carcinoma cells and JAr choriocarcinoma cells. Both the MCF-7 and JAr cell culture systems exhibit aromatase activity, and 7a-APTADD was evaluated for its aromatase-inhibitory activity, for its ability to ...

this study evaluates the effectiveness of adsorption process by granular activated carbon (gac) compared with a novel formulation of coagulation - flocculation process for dye removal from textile wastewater. in this regard, acidic, reactive, disperse and direct red dye are used to prepare the synthetic dye. dominant wave length for each dye is determined by spectrophotometeric method. using ga...

BACKGROUND Topical erythromycin/benzoyl peroxide (EBP), marketed for acne treatment, must be compounded by a pharmacist and requires subsequent refrigeration, warranting the development of alternate formulations. OBJECTIVE This trial compared the efficacy and tolerability of a single-use EBP combination package (EBP Pak) with those of its matching vehicle control (VC Pak) and the original, re...

The gymnotiform fish Eigenmannia generates weakly electric signals for electrolocation and communication. The signals are produced by electric organ discharges (EODs) that are driven by a medullary pacemaker nucleus. To avoid jamming by neighboring conspecifics with similar frequencies, a fish raises its own EOD frequency if the neighbor's frequency is lower, and it lowers its EOD frequency if ...

The Wise Anaerobic Work Station permitted the growth of type cultures of a range of fastidious obligate anaerobes. In the isolation of anaerobic bacteria from clinical specimens the performance equalled that of a standard anaerobic jar incubated for 48 hours, and gave results superior to those obtained when incubation of jar cultures was interrupted at 24 hours. The Wise Anaerobic Work Station ...
