challenges to improve the stability and efficacy of an intravesical bcg product
Authors
abstract
the aim of this investigation was to improve the storage stability and survival rate of intravesical bcg product, manufactured with an attenuated strain of mycobacterium bovis (pasteur strain 1173p2 of bcg) in the presence of sodium glutamate. formulations with various concentrations of trehalose (a known protectant) were developed as liquid and lyophilized forms. formulations were evaluated by different methods, including optical density measurement, safety assessment, skin reaction test, moisture content determination, viability assay, bacterial and fungal contaminations and the results were compared with those obtained for sodium glutamate-containing formulations. the stability tests were also carried out in various storage durations and different temperatures. to develop the lyophilization protocol, glass transition temperatures in the presence of both stabilizers were determined using differential scanning calorimetry. in general, results showed that trehalose could considerably increase the stability of the product against freezing and drying processes, increase the survival rate even in the liquid formulations, as well as the production of an acceptable cake. however, further studies are required to optimize the product characteristics.

رابطه ی میانِ هنر و شرایطِ اجتماعیِ زایش آن همواره در طولِ تاریخ دغدغه ی ذهنی و دل مشغولیِ اساسیِ منتقدان و نیز هنرمندان بوده است. از آنجا که هنر در قفس آهنیِ زندگیِ اجتماعی محبوس است، گسترش وابستگیِ آن با نهاد ها و اصولِ اجتماعی پیرامون، صرفِ نظر از هم سو بودن و یا غیرِ هم سو بودنِ آن نهاد ها، امری اجتناب ناپذیر به نظر می رسد. با این وجود پدیدار گشتنِ چنین مباحثِ حائز اهمییتی در میان منتقدین، با ظهورِ مکتب ما...
a comparison of teachers and supervisors, with respect to teacher efficacy and reflection
supervisors play an undeniable role in training teachers, before starting their professional experience by preparing them, at the initial years of their teaching by checking their work within the proper framework, and later on during their teaching by assessing their progress. but surprisingly, exploring their attributes, professional demands, and qualifications has remained a neglected theme i...
