An in vitro comparison of commonly used topical glucocorticoid preparations.

BACKGROUND Glucocorticoids (GC) are potent inhibitors of peripheral blood eosinophil, basophil, and airway epithelial cell function. OBJECTIVES We compared in vitro the inhibitory activity of synthetic GC used for topical treatment in asthma and rhinitis on basophil histamine release (HR), eosinophil viability, and expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) in the human bronchia...

Evaluating the efficacy of commonly used topical anesthetics.

PURPOSE This study compared the efficacy of commonly used topical anesthetics using an objective measuring scale. METHODS The following were tested: 5% EMLA cream, 10% cocaine, 10% lidocaine, 10% benzocaine, 1% dyclonine, and a placebo. A special instrument was designed to serve the purpose of pressure application on the gingiva to obtain a threshold discomfort level in grams before and after...

Deposition of carbon nanotubes in commonly used sample filter media

There is no single standard technique or methodology to characterize the size, structure, number, and chemical composition of airborne carbon nanotubes.  Existing analytical instruments and analytical techniques for evaluating nanoparticle concentrations cannot simultaneously provide morphology, state of agglomeration, surface area, mass, size distribution and chemical composition data critical...
