SUMMARY In this research, which was done for two years, we investigated various liquid and solid media without feeder ceells, for the ability to support growth of P. carinii. Data obtained from counting the organisms nuclei showed that, addition of Cyclo­heximide, penicillin, & streptomycin to neopeptone­N-Acetyle Glucoseamine (N.P.G. medium) can provides growth requirements of organism in its...

Background: This study quantified the effect of four popular culture media in a biodiesel production study on the qualitative and quantitative lipid content, dry biomass, and lipid productivity of Nannochloropsis oculata. Methods: Culture of microalgae was done separately in Walne, F/2, Sato, and TMRL media. In the logarithmic and stationary growth phases, biomass production and lipid accumulat...

Background: Extensive full-thickness burns require replacement of both epidermis and dermis. In designing skin replacements, the goal has been to re-create this model and make a product which has both essential components. Methods: In the present study, we developed procedures for establishing confluent, stratified layers of cultured human keratinocytes on the surface of modified collagen-chito...

Whole-cell pertussis vaccine (wP) has been imperative and highly effective in preventing childhood deaths due to pertussis. Pertussis toxin is one of the virulence factors of Bordetella pertussis in all available pertussis vaccines. wP production in Razi Vaccine and Serum Research Institute is according to bioreactor culture of B. pertussis strains in B2 medium. The aim ...
