For centuries, Damask rose has been one of the most popular species of the rose family. Damask rose can be propagated using vegetative methods such as micropropagation. In this research, the use of temporary immersion system was reported for the first time for Damask rose micropropagation. For this reason, a traditional temporary immersion system was designed to facilitate its micropropagation....

Pieces of tissue were dissected from early chick and quail embryos (Stages XIII and XIV of Eyal-Giladi & Kochav, 1976; and stages 3-5 of Hamburger & Hamilton, 1951). These tissues were taken from three different regions of the early embryos, and from eight different regions of the older ones, and were derived mainly from the lower layer. Epiblast tissues were also used. The experiments were des...

A 28-year-old female presented with a palpable mass lesion on the superonasal aspect of her right globe and she had a progressive diplopia. She had a scleral encircling surgery with a Miragel explant (MIRA, Waltham, Mass, USA) for the tractional retinal detachment associated with pars planitis 9 years previously. On examination, she revealed restricted eye movements of her right eye. The magnet...

BACKGROUND Scleral buckling is still a common procedure to repair rhematogenous retinal detachment, and acute or chronic infection of the scleral explant is rare. We report an intractable case of acute scleral explant infection by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. CASE A 36-year-old man suffered from acute scleral explant infection by P. aeruginosa forty-eight hours after scleral buckling for rhegmatog...

Human periodontal ligament from resorbing deciduous teeth demonstrated collagenolytic activity when incubated on collagen gels. This activity was directly proportional to the size of the explant and length of time of incubation. No activity was observed in ligaments obtained from completely formed premolar teeth.

Human pe~odont~l ligamen~ from rapidly resorbing pzqmary teeth which also exhibited periapical radiolucency on radiograph demonstrated co]]agenolytic activity when incubated on collagen gels. This activity was direc~ly proportional ~o the size of the explant and length of time of incubation.

Garlic ( Allium sativum L) is one of genus sp which propagated vegetatively. In vegetative propagation, virus the major diseases. However, it has been approved that OYDV Onion Yellow Dwarf Virus ) can be eliminated through unconventional propagation techniques. The aim this research was to evaluate effect explant, variety and heat treatment on growth development explants dealing with eliminatio...

Testing cardiac gene and cell therapies in vitro requires a tissue substrate that survives for several days in culture while maintaining its physiological properties. The purpose of this study was to test whether culture of intact cardiac tissue of neonatal rat ventricles (organ explant culture) may be used as a model to study gene and cell therapy. We compared (immuno) histology and electrophy...

An efficient procedure for in vitro shoot production of the medicinal plant sundew (Drosera rotundifolia L.) was developed. Of three cytokinins tested, zeatin (ZEA) at a concentration of 2 μM resulted in the formation of large numbers of adventitious shoots on leaf explants. A larger size of the small shoots was achieved by combining a 2-weeks preculture with ZEA (step 1: shoot induction) with ...
