in this study, five carp pituitary glands were collected and dispersed enzymatically and mechanically.then, the cells were cultivated as monolayer in mem (minimum essential medium eagle). the culture mediawere collected after 72 h and frozen at -20°c. carp ovarian follicles also were separated mechanically andincubated in bss (basic salt solution) cortland medium in 24-well microplates for 48 h...

AIMS The study was designed to evaluate the relative bioavailability of diclofenac in plasma, subcutaneous adipose and skeletal muscle tissue after repeated topical administration using MIKA Diclofenac Spray Gel (4%), a novel formulation, and after oral dosing using VOLTAREN 50 mg enteric coated tablets. METHODS Diclofenac (48 mg) was administered topically three times daily for 3 days onto a...

OBJECTIVES The authors evaluated the pharmacokinetics and tolerability of indinavir/lopinavir/ritonavir in a protease inhibitor only combination. METHODS Plasma drug levels of patients taking indinavir/lopinavir/ritonavir 800/400/100mg twice daily (n = 24, group 1) were compared to patients taking either lopinavir/ritonavir 400/100mg (n = 35, group2) or indinavir/ritonavir 800/100mg (n = 33, ...

the purpose of this study was to determine the effects of different concentrations of vitamin e (vit. e) in the quality of preserved stallion semen at 5ᵒc for a period of 48 h. semen was collected and most (≥90%) seminal plasma removed by centrifugation at 600 × g. pooled samples divided in four equal parts and diluted with extenders that was supplemented with different concentrations of vit. e...

introduction: the purpose of this ex vivo study was to assess the effect of two root-end filling materials against candida (c) albicans . materials and methods: proroot mta and cem cement were compared immediately and 24 h after mixing, in two different concentrations (50 and 100 mg/ml). a total of 50 culture wells were used and divided into experimental (n=10) and control groups (n=5). those w...

Posaconazole (SCH 56592) was tested against 25 strains of Coccidioides immitis to determine their in vitro susceptibilities. The geometric mean 48-h MIC of posaconazole (POSA) was 0.5 microg/ml, the MIC range was 0.25 to 1 microg/ml, and the MIC at which 50% of the isolates tested are inhibited (MIC50) and the MIC90 were 0.5 and 1 microg/ml, respectively. The geometric mean 48-h MIC of itracona...

The enterococcal bacteriocin (enterocin) AS-48 is a broad-spectrum cyclic peptide. Enterocin AS-48 was tested against Bacillus coagulans in three vegetable canned foods: tomato paste (pH 4.64), syrup from canned peaches (pH 3.97), and juice from canned pineapple (pH 3.65). When vegetative cells of B. coagulans CECT (Spanish Type Culture Collection) 12 were inoculated in tomato paste supplemente...

The objective of this study was to compare, by two experimental methods, the antimicrobial efficacy of different root canal filling pastes used in pediatric dentistry. The tested materials were: Guedes-Pinto paste (GPP), zinc oxide-eugenol paste (OZEP), calcium hydroxide paste (CHP), chloramphenicol + tetracycline + zinc oxide and eugenol paste (CTZP) and Vitapex. Fiven microbial strains (S. au...

We have investigated the effects of glucocorticoid treatment on lipid lateral diffusion and cholesterokphospholipid ratios in the plasma mem branes of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-responsive murine B-cell leuke mia (BCL,). Exposure to LPS for 24 h at concentrations of 50 ¿tg/ml, 100 Mg/ml, and 250 Mg/ml caused a 42% reduction in the lateral diffusion of the lipid probe 3,3'-dioctadecylindocarb...

We have investigated the effects of glucocorticoid treatment on lipid lateral diffusion and cholesterol:phospholipid ratios in the plasma membranes of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-responsive murine B-cell leukemia (BCL1). Exposure to LPS for 24 h at concentrations of 50 micrograms/ml, 100 micrograms/ml, and 250 micrograms/ml caused a 42% reduction in the lateral diffusion of the lipid probe 3,3...
