251 Acetic acid iontophoresis has been considered an effective treatment modality for the relief of heel pain1 and has become a standard approach to the treatment of calcific bursitis and tendinitis of the shoulder.2 Iontophoresis introduces ionizable substances into the body for therapeutic purposes by means of a direct current (Table 1).1 In this case, the acetate radical is introduced under ...

BACKGROUND/AIMS In recent years, one of technical attempts to improve biocompatibility and tolerability of the hemodialysis procedure is the substitution of acetate in dialysis solution with citrate. The aim of our study was to compare two dialysis solutions: traditional bicarbonate dialysis solution containing acetate (3 mmol/L) (solution A); and (solution C) commercially produced citrate-enri...

In UCT and Bardenpho systems, by starting with 100 per cent municipal waste water as influent, incrementally decreasing the waste-water fraction and increasing the acetate fraction, an enhanced culture of polyphosphate (polyP) organisms was developed. Aerobic cultures, using the API procedure, indicated greater than 90 per cent of the microorganisms as Acinetobacter spp. As the acetate fraction...

background : identifying the sources of variation in qtc measurements is important for preventing arrhythmias during and after hemodialysis. the present study was designed to determine the correlation between the type of hemodialysis buffer and the changes in qtc interval in patients on chronic hemodialysis.   methods: fifty-nine patients on chronic hemodialysis who referred in winter 2007 to h...

The calcium/calmodulin-regulated Ca-ATPase of the plasma membrane is implicated in Paramecium chemosensory transduction. Calmodulin antisense oligonucleotides electroporated into Paramecium disrupt chemosensory responses to sodium acetate but not to ammonium chloride.

Here, we present the whole-genome sequence of an environmental Gram-negative Alishewanella aestuarii strain (HH-ZS), isolated from the hyperalkaline contaminated soil of a historical lime kiln in Buxton, United Kingdom.
