A number of ways have been investigated for administration of antibacterial agents in dealing of plaque-initiated periodontal disease. These include prolonged release intrapocket devices which are inserted at diseased sites. Intrapocket drug delivery system was designed which contain Doxycycline Hyclate an antibacterial agent. The formulations were so developed with an aim to reduce the dose of...

AgNPs-Tragacanth conjugate gel as an eco friendly and low cost membrane was applied for the effective electromembrane extraction (EME) of Tenofovir disproxil fumarate, an important acidic and high polar (log p=1.25) antiviral drug, followed by HPLC-UV determination. The effect of various parameters on the extraction efficiency including the presence of AgNPs, tragacanth gum concentration, gel t...

Mature oilfields usually encounter the problem of high watercut. It is practical to use chemical methods for water-shutoff in production wells, however conventional water-shutoff agents have problems of long gelation time, low gel strength, and poor stability under low temperature and high salinity conditions. In this work a novel polymer gel for low temperature and high salinity reservoirs was...

Background The i-gel™ (i-gel) and Laryngeal Mask Airway Supreme™ (LMA Supreme) have been safely used in children. We compared the airway performance of the i-gel and LMA Supreme in infants undergoing general anesthesia. Methods Sixty infants with American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I or II were randomly assigned to place either the i-gel or the LMA Supreme. The size 1 or 1.5...

background and aims. previous data have demonstrated that berberine, a barberry plant alkaloid, possesses various therapeutic properties. this study histologically evaluated the clinical efficacy of a berberine-derived topical gel on periodontal inflammation in patients requiring surgery. materials and methods. this randomized clinical trial was performed on 14 patient (11 females, 3 males) pre...

Neutron radiography (NR) can investigate the diffusion mechanisms of moisture transport within the silica gel material. Dynamic neutron radiography (DNR) possesses the possibility to investigate the moisture profile inside the silica gel filter. The technique explained the relationship between moisture movement and time. This study investigated the diffusion mechanisms (absorption and infiltrat...

Artemisinin extracted from Artemisia annua L. is the best medicine with the highest efficiency, the most effective and the lowest toxicity in treating ague nowadays. At present, most studies focus on artemisinin and its derivatives, while the study and report about the other active components are rare. This paper purposed to further discover new indication of Artemisia annua L. connecting with ...

A data warehouse for the integrated storage and visualisation of genome and experimental transcriptome and proteome data of human-pathogenic fungi was established. It provides tools for uploading images and corresponding data from microarray experiments, two-dimensional (2D) gel experiments and mass spectrometry (MS) analyses. All data are cross-linked. A user can find out, on which gels in the...
