OBJECTIVES Harmonic Scalpel (HS) and Maxium (MAX) are surgical shears that enable simultaneous vessel sealing and tissue coagulation. This study compares the outcome of Total Thyroidectomy (TT) using Conventional Suture Ligation (CSL) technique versus (vs) two sutureless techniques; H S and MAX techniques in terms of safety, operative time, blood drainage volume, hospital stay and surgical comp...

introduction. students’ satisfaction reflects the effectiveness of all aspects of education. achieving clinical skill is a key process about medical education. for this reason it is necessary to build up a place similar to the hospital called clinical skill lab (csl). the aim of this study was to evaluate the medical students’ satisfaction from clinical skill lab of tabriz for finding education...

Combination of lactam antibiotic with lactamase inhibitor has been proven to overcome resistance caused by lactamase production. An evaluation to the MIC of some lactam antibiotics to b-lactamase producing isolates will be reported. A.anitratus, E.coli, K.pneumoniae, Proteus sp, Pseudomonas sp, S.aureus, S.epidermidis, S.pneumoniae, S.viridans, and hemolytic Streptococcus, were challe...

Advantages of pelleted feeds in terms of storage, transportation and lower costs compared to natural fresh feed justified the replacement of artificial feeds instead of natural ones partially on maturation performances. This study comprised nine treatments (with three replications) including control treatment: polychaete worm (Perinereis nuntia), Squid and calf liver (natural feed); T1: pellet ...

in this study, the effect of carbon and nitrogen sources, on production of yeast biomass was determined as well as the efficacy of various formulations of candida membranifaciens to decrease blue mold on apple. the media containing sugar cane molasses as carbon sources caused more yeast growth than the media supplemented with permeate powder. yeast extract as nitrogen source produced higher bio...
