purpose: to report two cases of secondary epithelial iris cyst (seic) with pus-like precepitates in the cyst. patients and findings: two young men with history of penetrating trauma to the eye and primary repair developed secondary epithelial iris cyst several years later. slit-lamp biomicroscopy revealed a large cyst originating from the site of the laceration. the cyst was filled with pus-lik...

INTRODUCTION The combination of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and chlorhexidine (CHX) results in the formation of a precipitate. In a previous study, we demonstrated the formation of 4-chloraniline (PCA) in the precipitate in an amount directly related to the concentration of NaOCl used. AIMS AND METHODS The aim of the present study was to use a diazotization technique to confirm the presence o...

purpose: to characterize keratic precipitate (kp) morphology in different forms of uveitis. methods: one hundred and twenty nine eyes of 93 patients with different forms of uveitis underwent confocal scan and the morphology of kps were determined. differences in kp morphologies among different uveitic groups were evaluated.  results: age ranged from 14 to 67 years (mean: 32.5±11.2) and 58 cases...

BACKGROUND Precipitous labor is defined as expulsion of the fetus within less than 3 hours of commencement of regular contractions. We retrospectively examined our cases of precipitous labor to identify the clinical significance and perinatal outcomes following precipitous labor in singleton vertex deliveries. METHODS A retrospective population-based study was conducted comparing women with s...

B. megatherium phage, like staphylococcus phage, is inactivated by repeated high speed centrifugation (Northrop, 1938; Hotchin, 1954). This method of purification has the additional disadvantage that large volumes of material cannot be handled. B. megatkerium phage is precipitated from peptone solution by 0.4 saturated ammonium sulfate. The precipitate is filtered off, washed, and dissolved in ...

We report the synthesis of nanoapatite crystals via a hydrothermal reaction of hydroxyapatite precipitates. The impact of the reaction conditions on the properties of the crystals obtained were evaluated. The hydrothermal reaction that takes place markedly affected the crystallinity, morphology, and size of the nanoapatite crystals formed. High crystallinity and large crystal size were obtained...

In a study of the acidand base-binding capacity of fibrin and fibrinogen, it became evident that the latter is changed by long standing in the presence of a small amount of acid, even when the solution is kept in the refrigerator. The change is shown by the greater tendency of the protein to precipitate. Unless the protein has been previously dialyzed against sodium chloride solution, it forms ...
