2-5A[ppp(A2'p)nA] and related materials accumulate to greater than micromolar concentrations in vaccinia virus-infected HeLa cells and in interferon-treated, vaccinia-infected HeLa, CV1, and L929 cells even when virus replication is not inhibited. A variably complex mixture of authentic 2-5A (n = 2 to 4), nonphosphorylated cores [(A2'p)nA; n = 2 to 5], and additional compounds of unknown struct...

This study aims at determining the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration with Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 and cytotoxicity to L929 cells (ATCC CCL-1) of the waste generated by doxycycline degradation by the Fenton process. This process has shown promise in this treatment thanks mainly to the fact that the waste did not show any relevant inhibitory effect on the test organism and no cytotoxicity to L...

The effect of bleomycin on DNA strand breakage and its repair in cultured mouse fibroblast strain L-P3 (a substrain of L929) was studied. Treatment of L-P3 cells with bleomycin caused single-strand breaks of DNA as revealed by alkaline sucrose gradient centrifugation. The singlestrand breaks of DNA were rejoined within 3 hr when the treated cells were incubated at 37°in a medium free of the an...

This paper reports microfluidic chip based wet spinning of biodegradable polymers with simple mechanism, and study of cell orientation dependence with fiber size. Biodegradable polymer PLGA fiber was produced by microfluidic chip based spinning device. By controlling feed rate of core polymer and sheath coagulating solutions, we got various PLGA fiber diameter from 10 to 242 μm. L929 mouse fibr...

Introduction: In this study, we explore in detail cell-specific targeting efficacy of nano-photo-thermal therapy (NPTT) method and the resulting responses that are induced by variable laser intensities and exposure times in cancer cells to induce selective apoptosis. We delineate the synthesis of a high-yielding synthetic F-AuNPs by tailoring the surface of gold nanoparticles ...
