Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is the most common parasitic disease transmitted by vectors in Iran. CL is endemic in many urban and rural parts of Iran and usually caused by two species of Leishmania as L. major and L. tropica transmitted to humans from parasite reservoirs by the bite of female sandflies. We report a case of ocular leishmaniasis with eyelid involvement presentation. The patient w...

Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) has been recognized as a major public health problem in several countries. It is highly endemic in the north and east Mediterranean regions in the Syrian Arab Republic with more than 75.9% of all CL cases recorded from these regions. Pentavalent antimonials have been considered as standard treatment for leishmaniasis. Use of pentavalent antimonials to treat leishman...

A flow cytometric technique was developed for detection of amastigotes of the protozoan Leishmania infantum in human nonadherent monocyte-derived macrophages. The cells were fixed and permeabilized with paraformaldehyde-ethanol, and intracellular amastigotes were labeled with Leishmania lipophosphoglycan-specific monoclonal antibody. Results showed that flow cytometry provided accurate quantifi...

Chemically synthesized cero-antimonate and titanium cero-antimonate prepared by sol-gel technique was conducted for the synthesis of a novel ion exchanger. The prepared materials has been characterized by X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, Fourier transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Thermogravemetric analyses. The structures and empirical formula's was identified and found to CeSb4O...
