The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of troxerutin (TXN) on Nickel (Ni) toxicity by using rats and in vitro model. Ni toxicity induced in male albino wistar rats (20 mg/kg body weight (b.w) was administered orally for 20 days). TXN was administered orally (100 mg/kg (b.w) for 20 days with administration of Ni. The toxic effect of Ni and the action of TXN was measure by determ...

objective: to study the accuracy of spiral tomography in the determination of implant angulation. materials and methods: eighteen gutta-percha filled points on dry mandibles were selected for implant placement. a translucent acrylic template was fabricated for each mandible. after preparing tomographic images (2 mm slice thickness, cranex tome), the ideal axis of the implant was traced. the ang...

objective: reinforcement with fiber is an effective method for considerable improvement in flexural properties of indirect composite resin restorations. the aim of this in-vitro study was to compare the transverse strength of composite resin bars reinforced with preimpregnated and non-impregnated fibers. materials and methods: thirty six bar type composite resin specimens (3×2×25 mm) were const...

abstract background autologus platelet gel is easy to prepare and is relatively low cost. the aim of this study was to prepare and evaluate in vitro efficacy of autologus platelet gel. materials and methods in this experimental study, platelet concentrate and platelet poor plasma were prepared with aphaeresis method. thrombin was prepared by mixing the plasma with calcium. thrombin activity lev...

The objective of this study was to estimate the protein degradability parameters of 6 common ruminant feedstuff using the nylon bags (in situ) and the innovative in vitro method-the DaisyII incubator. Significant differences were observed between the in situ and in vitro methods in estimation of the rapidly soluble (a) fraction (Pin vitro method were highly correlated with the estimated values ...

Introduction: Cutaneous Leishmaniasis (CL) is a parasitic disease caused by Leishmania species. Currently accessible treatments remain insufficient, and there is pressure to develop suitable and effectual options. In this study, we used different concentrations of podophyllin in vitro on leishmania parasites and then on leishmaniasis lesions in mice and compared their efficacy. Method: We used ...
