Solid lipid nanoparticles of atovaquone (ATQ-SLN) were prepared by high shearhomogenization method using tripalmitin, trilaurin, and Compritol 888 ATO as the lipidmatrices and Phospholipon 90H, Tween 80, and poloxamer 188 as the surfactants. Optimizationof the formulations was conducted using 6 sets of 24 full-factorial design based on fourindependent variables that were the number of homogeniz...

Proton nuclear magnetic resonance (PMR) spectra at 270 MHz of aqueous dispersions of nonsonicated egg lecithin, dipalmitoyl lecithin, egg lecithin-cholesterol (1 : 1 ) and dipalmitoyl lecithin-cholesterol (1 : 1), together with PMR spectra of mitochondrial membranes and their extracted lipids, have been obtained. Carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (CMR) spectra at 25.2 MHz of egg lecithin, eg...

Lecithin has been found to interfere with the combining reaction of Cl. welchii alpha toxin (lecithinase) and its antitoxin. If the lecithinase is first brought into contact with lecithin, and the antitoxin is then added, the antitoxin fails to stop the enzymatic reaction, but gradually decelerates it. If the lecithinase is brought into contact with both lecithin and antitoxin at the same insta...

Forty crossbred (Large White × Landrace × Duroc) female pigs (16.4 kg ± 0.94 kg) were used to investigate the effect of dietary lecithin supplementation on growth performance and pork quality. Pigs were randomly allocated to a commercial diet containing either 0, 3, 15 or 75 g lecithin/kg of feed during the grower and finisher growth phase. Pork from pigs consuming the diets containing 15 g and...

The objective of the present study was to assess the growth and the recovery of Salmonella (S.) Enteritidis SE86 in different diluents, culture media and using different plating methods after the exposure to 200 mg/kg sodium dichloroisocyanurate (NaDCC). Before and after NaDCC exposure, SE86 was cultured at 30 °C and 7 °C in the following diluents: Peptone water (P), Saline solution (SaS), Pept...

The activity of egg lecithin in preventing the antifungal action of the two imidazole antimycotics, clotrimazole and miconazole, was confirmed. However, addition of this phospholipid could not relieve an existing imidazole inhibition. Compared with egg lecithin, reduced egg lecithin showed no such protective effect. The addition of egg lecithin to an aqueous suspension of the imidazole drugs ch...
