Mucosa-adhesive gels can be used as a useful mean of delivering drugs to or via mucosal membranes, and in particular buccal mucosa. Carbomers are among the best mucosa-adhesive materials known. The aim of this study was to compare the results obtained from the mucosa-adhesive strength of aqueous gels containing Carbomers, either alone or in combination, to the data obtained from assessing the d...

background: the aim of this study was to evaluate the protein spots of excre-tory - secretory products of fasciola hepatica using two dimension electrophoresis method in the presence and absence of triclabendazole drug which can be consid-ered to detect the target protein of the drug. methods: f. hepatica parasites were collected from infected cattle livers, divided in two groups and cultivated...

background: in this study, two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-de) method was applied to determine and compare the protein spots expressed in the two field isolates of leishmania major and recovered from the patients who were clinically sensitive and resistant to glucantime® treatment. methods: leishmania parasites were isolated from the cutaneous lesions of two cl infected patients in shira...

Tumor-associated protein variants were detected by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) in soluble proteins from chemically induced rat hepatomas and transformed rat liver cell lines. Among them, a series of 8 protein variants was found localized at similar sites in 2-DE gels (33-35 kDa, with different pI values). We characterized four of them. In situ peptide mapping with limited proteol...

Potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTV) was radioactively labeled during its synthesis in PSTV-infected tomato plants whose roots had been placed in nutrient solution containing [32P]orthophosphate. The 32P was incorporated into PSTV when the radioactive label was introduced into infected plants ‘2 weeks after inoculation, when systemic symptoms of PSTV started to appear. Synthesis of 32P-labeled PS...
