As a result of immunological and nucleic-acid screening of plasma donations for transfusion-transmissible viruses, and the incorporation of viral reduction processes during plasma fractionation, coagulation-factor concentrates (CFC) are now judged safe in terms of many known infectious agents, including hepatitis B and C viruses, HIV, and human T-cell lymphotropic virus. However, emerging patho...

An in vitro study was conducted to know the veridical properties of silver nanoparticles synthesized from   locally available white button mushrooms (Agaricus bisporus). The characterized colloidal silver nanoparticles exhibited as an excellent virucidal property on viral strain Bacteriophage. The viral inactivation process was increased with increasing the concentration of colloidal s...

Improvements in donor screening and testing and viral inactivation of plasma derivatives together have resulted in substantial declines in transfusion-transmitted infections over the last two decades. Most recently, nucleic acid testing techniques have been developed to screen blood and plasma donations for evidence of very recent viral infections that could be missed by conventional serologic ...

introduction: current study examined the possible role of the central nucleus of amygdala (cea) transient inactivation on the metabolic and hormonal disturbances induced by acute electro foot shock stress in female rats. considering the differences between female and male in responses to stress, this study attempts to reveal possible mechanisms underlying these differences. methods: uni- or bil...

abstract human blood and blood products is the source of a wide range of medicinal products used for the treatment and prevention of a variety of injuries and disease. despite stringent routine measures and filters employed, residual pathogen infectivity remains an important challenge in the field of blood transfusion. in this article various measures and technologies that can be applied in ord...

Background and Aims: Despite the screening of blood donors, blood transfusion represents an ideal port of entry for blood-borne infection. Blood-borne pathogen transmission has been a concern since the earliest days of transfusion. The blood product of platelet (PLT) concentrates is still faced with the risk of bacterial and viral contaminations. Pathogen inactivation technologies offer a proac...
