Mouth washing after inhalation of corticosteroids is effective for prevention of local adverse effects. We determined the amounts of drug residues remaining on the oropharyngeal mucosa following inhalation of budesonide (BUD) via a Turbuhaler (BUD-TH) (100 microg). Further, we studied the effects of mouth washing on the removal of drug residues by quantification of BUD in expectorated wash solu...

BACKGROUND One of the best ways to prevent malaria is the use of insecticide-treated bed nets. Manufacturers pursue easier, safer and more efficient nets. Hence, many studies on the efficacy and wash resistance using World Health Organization standards have been reported. The commonly used detergent is "Savon de Marseille", because it closely resembles actually used soaps. At the 54(th) Collabo...

Retting of flax was the first biotechnological application in textile processing. More than 2000 years ago, micro-organisms grown on flax were used to achieve partial decortication in the extraction of linen fibres from flax stems. Amylases were the only enzymes applied in textile processing until the 1980’s. These enzymes are still used to remove starch-based sizes from fabrics after weaving. ...

OBJECTIVES The primary goal of this study was to assess the effect of postoperative hair-washing on incision infection and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in craniotomy patients. The objectives of this study were to 1) determine the effect of postoperative hair-washing on incision infection and HRQOL, 2) provide evidence to support postoperative patient hygienic care, and 3) develop neur...

Remediation of heavy-metal-contaminated sediment is often hampered by the availability of heavy metals to the added chemical agents because the heavy metals are often shielded by the sediment matrix. Effective heavy-metal extraction technique becomes an important factor in enhancing the treatment efficiency. A novel extraction/washing technique utilizing chelating agent and elevated pressure in...
