Shedding light on skin cancer.
-The in vitro chemosensitivity of primary monolayer cultures of human ovarian tumours to a wide range of chemotherapeutic agents has been determined using 3H-leucine incorporation as an index of cytotoxicity. Of 67 specimens received, 35 have been successfully cultured and tested for chemosensitivity. Drugs tested included alkylating agents, antibiotics, antimitotics, antimetabolites and proges...
متن کاملEffect of Systemic Antioxidant Allopurinol Therapy on Skin Flap Survival
BACKGROUND It has been reported that systemic administration of allopurinol improves cell survival. This study was aimed to evaluate effects of allopurinol on skin flaps in dogs. METHODS Twenty dogs underwent one skin flap surgery with a 2-week interval. The first procedure was performed according to the standard protocols. The second phase was started by a 1-week pretreatment with all...
متن کاملHerbivory on freshwater macrophytes
Lodge, D.M., 1991. Herbivory on freshwater macrophytes. Aquat. Bot., 41: 195-224. Conventional wisdom holds that live macrophytes are rarely consumed and are functionally unimportant in aquatic food webs. With a review of the literature, I first demonstrate that macrophyte biomass, productivity, and species composition is often influenced by a variety of vertebrate and invertebrate grazers. Man...
متن کاملExceptional Epiphyte Diversity on a Single Tree
An exhaustive survey of vascular epiphytes on a single mature canopy tree in a Costa Rican tropical premontane wet forest revealed an extraordinary level of epiphyte diversity. A total of 126 morphospecies representing at least 52 genera and 21 plant families were found growing epiphytically on the phorophyte (host tree), accounting for more than 1% of the entire vascular flora of Costa Rica. T...
متن کاملSurvival of bacillus licheniformis on human skin.
The colonization and survival of Bacillus species, members of the cutaneous microbial community of humans, were investigated by applying spores of Bacillus licheniformis to the forearms of volunteers. Four strains were tested, including the bacitracin producer ATCC 10716 and its bacitracin-negative mutant. Germination occurred within 24 h. Significant differences in survival population and dura...
