Papain allows the effective removal of necrotic tissue in wounds by a type of enzymatic debridement. The objective of this work was to emphasize the effectiveness of the association of papain with urea in necrotic lesions. The case of a 56‐year‐old patient is reported with an ulcerated lesion in the internal malleolar region of the left lower limb. The necrotic tissue was made enzymatic...

In the present paper five wild Pleurotus species namely P. floridanus Singer, P. pulmonarius (Fr.) Quél., P. sapidus Quél., P. cystidiosus O.K.Mill. and P. sajor-caju (Fr.) Sing., collected from different localities of North West India have been studied for the qualitative estimation of cellulose and lignin degradation enzymes through colorimetric assays. On the basis of the results obtained, t...

Panovská Z., Váchová A., Pokorný J. (2012): Effect of thickening agents on perceived viscosity and acidity of model beverages. Czech J. Food Sci., 30: 442–445. The effect of thickening agents – methyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, and xanthan gum – solutions on the sensory viscosity was investigated in the concentration range of 0–0.8%. The perceived viscosi...

Purpose To determine the effect of injection volume and formulation of a microneedle injection into the suprachoroidal space (SCS) on SCS thickness and closure kinetics. Methods Microneedle injections containing 25 to 150 μL Hanks' balanced salt solution (HBSS) were performed in the rabbit SCS ex vivo. Distribution of SCS thickness was measured by ultrasonography and three-dimensional (3D) cr...
