The efficacy of nitrofurazone-coated urinary catheter in inhibitory activity of catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) was evaluated. The incidence rate and onset of CAUTI after catheterisation of standard silicone urinary catheters and nitrofurazone-coated catheters was compared. There was no statistical significance between the two groups in the incidence rate of CAUTI. However, ...

Nitrofurazone (NF), part of a large and clinically useful class of antibacterial nitroaro-matic agents, was tested for its effects on reproduction and fertility in Swiss CD-1 mice using the RACB protocol. Data from a 2-week dose-range-finding study (Task 1) were used to set exposure concentrations for the Task 2 continuous cohabitation study at 100, 375, and 750 ppm in feed. Measures of food co...

BACKGROUND Kombucha, a fermented tea (KT) is claimed to possess many beneficial properties. The aim of this study was to evaluate clinical and histopathological alterations of Kombucha tea and Nitrofurazone on cutaneous full-thickness wounds healing in rat. METHODS In present study 24 Wister -albino rats weighing 150-200 g were selected and divided to two treatment groups as Nitrofurazone oin...

The main objective of the research was to deposit thin films silver on a graphite carbon paste in phosphate buffer medium using an electrochemical method. To construct nitrofurazone detection sensor that is highly sensitive. Different manufacturing parameters, such as electrodeposition potential, pH effect, potential scan rate and number cycles, were examined this section. parameters optimized ...

In environmental studies, some biological responses, known as biomarkers, have been used as a powerful bioassay tool for more than four decades. Disparity between enzyme activity and mRNA abundance leads to correlation equivocality, which makes the application of biomarkers for environmental risk assessment more complicated. This study investigates this disparity in the case of catalase when us...

nitrofurazone is one of the antibacterial nitrofuran agents used topically for skin infections. the drug is effective on the majority of infectious microorganisms. because of the importance of this drug in clinic, in this study various methods of synthesis of nitrofurazone were examined and the most appropriate method, applicable to pharmaceutical industry was chosen and optimized from the poin...

introduction: the purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of topical application of honey on the burn of full-thickness skin in rats. materials and methods: 40 adult female rats were divided into two groups and each group was subdivided into control and two experimental subgroups. the experiments were carried out under nitrofurazone anaesthesia. a third degree burn was carried out in t...

  Objective(s): The aim of this study was to insert nitrofurazone in a chitosan membrane to be used as a wound dressing.   Materials and Methods: Several blend films using chitosan (Cs) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), containing nitrofurazone were prepared by means of casting/solvent evaporating technique. Different characteristics such as mechanical properties, water vapor transmission rate...
