bone matrix gelatin (bmg) has been used for bone induction intramuscularly and subcutaneously by many investigators since 1965. more recently, some of the researchers have used bmg particles for bone repair and reported various results. in present study for evaluation of bone induction and new bone formation in parital defects, bmg particles were used in five groups of rats. the bmg was prepare...

Mesenchymal stem cells are pluripotent progenitors that could be found in human bone marrow. Mesenchymal stem cells are capable of renewing themselves without differentiation in long-term culture. These cells also have low immunogenicity and can suppress alloreactive T cell responses. In the current study, mesenchymal stem cells isolated and propagated previously from the bone marrow of a megal...

An effective ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with the quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC/Q-TOF/MS) method was developed for analysing the chemical constituents in rat plasma and urine after the oral administration of Rubia cordifolia L. extract. Under the optimized conditions, nine of 11 prototypes in rat plasma and four prototypes in urine were identified ...

The binding properties on alizarin to human serum albumin (HSA) have been studied for the first time using fluorescence spectroscopy in combination with UV-visible absorbance spectroscopy. The results showed that alizarin strongly quenched the intrinsic fluorescence of HSA through a static quenching procedure, and non-radiation energy transfer occurred within the molecules. The number of bindin...

Abstract Purpose: Skeletal staining is a way to study the effect of many chemical or herbal substances on development of bones and cartilages in order to record the level of probable deformity.This article aimed to present a modified protocol to make all skeletal studies on laboratory animals possible. Materials and Methods: The important notes about skeletal staining were fixing by ethan...
