in medicine, patent blue violet (pbv) is utilized for staining lymphatic vessels in sentinel lymph node (sln) surgery. moreover, pbv (also called e131 ) is used as food additive. we report on a 51-year-old non-atopic female with early breast cancer, who was scheduled for sln excision and experienced an intra-operative anaphylactic reaction. in diagnostics the skin prick test (spt) was positive ...

statement of problem: early diagnoses of oral malignancies and pre-malignancies have direct effect in the outcome of these lesions. therefore the techniques for early diagnosis have been considered as useful method in practice. purpose: the aim of this study was to evaluate the reliability of oratest and generic toluidine blue (gtb) in the detection of oral malignancy and premalignancy. materia...

A series of oxoperoxovanadium(V) complexes (ligands: H3nta ) nitrilotriacetic acid, H3heida ) N-(2hydroxyethyl)iminodiacetic acid, H2ada ) N-(2-amidomethyl)iminodiacetic acid, Hbpg ) N,N-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)glycine, and tpa ) N,N,N-tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine) were characterized as functional models for the vanadium haloperoxidase enzymes. The crystal structures of K[VO(O2)Hheida], K[VO(O2)ada],...

Current strategies for the control of schistosomiasis are based primarily on chemotherapy but successful vaccination against infection has been also demonstrated in several host parasitic models. The present study was designed to assess the effect of vaccination with schistosomulae atte nuated by different doses of γ-radiation in mice challenged with S. mansoni cercariae regarding hepatic histo...

This paper describes the fabrication of microfluidic cloth-based analytical devices (μCADs) using a simple wax patterning method on cotton cloth for performing colorimetric bioassays. Commercial cotton cloth fabric is proposed as a new inexpensive, lightweight, and flexible platform for fabricating two- (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) microfluidic systems. We demonstrated that the wicking prope...

Polymorphism. Single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) was detected within PCR amplification products of the bovine Oxytocin (OXT) gene. Source and Description of Primers. Primers were derived from the published genomic sequence (Ruppert et al., 1984) based on primer positions given by Neibergs et al. (1991) and Dietz et al. (1992). Primer Sequences. The forward primer was 5′GCCATTAGCCGAC...

blue nevi are uncommon, asymptomatic lesions of the uterine cervix. these lesions are not often detected clinically or on colposcopy. careful histopathological examination is required. the nevus cells are said to originate from the immature melanoblasts of the neural crest. these lesions need to be differentiated from malignant melanoma and melanosis of the cervix. we present here a case report...

BACKGROUND Drug-Induced Liver Injury (DILI) changes, occur post exposure to natural or chemical compounds including apoptosis. AIM To assess the H1N1 vaccine-caused DILI by histochemical and immunohistochemical methods. METHODS This 2014's experimental study was conducted on 70 albino rats. They were given ArepanrixTM H1N1 vaccine and were divided into 7 groups; 10 mice each, as control (no...
