Different Storage Medium for Avulsed Teeth: A Literature Review
Avulsion is complete displacement of tooth from its alveolar socket. Immediate replantation is the best choice at the site of accident. When replantation is not possible, it should be kept in a storage medium. The storage media keeps periodontal cells with less damage to be able to regenerate and attach and prevents root resorption. The medium selected as a storage medium should be easily avail...
متن کاملFORMAzol as an RNA storage medium: a cautionary note when performing RT-PCR.
The labile nature of RNA demands careful procedures for its extraction, purification, and storage. Generally, RNA is solubilized in aqueous buffers or organic solvents, or precipitated with alcohol and then kept at -20 degrees C or colder. A commercially available product for RNA storage is FORMAzol(R) (Molecular Research Center). We began using FORMAzol because the Application Notes from the P...
متن کاملReverse-Wipe Data on a Storage Medium
This experimental study suggests an alternative method of data deletion which can be considered secure up to an acceptable level for most purposes while maintaining anti-forensics characteristics. It is a quick and “dirty” solution to remove data from a storage medium while achieving to confuse the investigator about the contents of the i.e. the hard disk. More specifically, working upon the fi...
متن کاملEfficiency of a transport medium for the recovery of aerobic and anaerobic bacteria from applicator swabs.
The survival of four aerobic and four anaerobic pathogens was evaluated quantitatively on cotton swabs and calcium alginate swabs stored in dry tubes as compared with swabs stored in Amies Transport Medium without charcoal. Survival of the pathogens was markedly improved when stored in Amies Transport Medium, although there was considerable loss of viability after a few hours of storage.
متن کاملComparison of nasopharyngeal nylon flocked swabs with universal transport medium and rayon-bud swabs with a sponge reservoir of viral transport medium in the diagnosis of paediatric influenza.
This study compared a kit containing a nasopharyngeal nylon flocked swab and a tube with a liquid universal transport medium (UTM) with a kit containing a plastic-shafted rayon-budded swab with a sponge reservoir of viral transport medium for the molecular detection of influenza viruses in children. Respiratory samples were collected from 314 children aged <5 years with influenza-like illness (...
