SYNOPSIS The statement made in some standard textbooksthatBenedict'squalitativetestgivesa green, yellow, or orange-red precipitate with pure solutions of glucose of varying strength has been shown to be incorrect. Pure solutions ofglucose give only a bright red precipitate at all concentrations. These changes in the colour of the suspensions are observed with urinary glucose only. The differenc...

Although a large proportion of anterior uveitis is noninfectious, viruses are regarded as an important cause infectious uveitis. Herpes common causes hypertensive PCR analysis aqueous sample collected at the slit lamp under aseptic conditions for viral DNA commonly used technique to confirm diagnosis during acute phase. Anterior may be shortened by prompt use therapeutic doses antiviral therapy...

Sodium saccharin, ascorbate and other sodium salts fed at high doses to rats produce urinary bladder urothelial cytotoxicity with consequent regenerative hyperplasia. For sodium salts that have been tested, tumor activity is enhanced when administered either alone or after a brief exposure to a known genotoxic bladder carcinogen. These sodium salts alter urinary composition of rats resulting in...

PURPOSE Indocyanine green (ICG) dye precipitates when mixed with certain ophthalmic irrigation solutions. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether this precipitation reduces ICG staining of the anterior lens capsule. METHODS ICG was diluted with each of the following solutions: BSS Plus, physiological saline, or Opeguard Neo. The products were then examined for green precipitate by...

Soy peroxidase enzyme obtained from isoelectic precipitation procedures was added to all-purpose flour (APF) to assess its effects on the rheological properties and consumer acceptability of yeast bread. A pH 4.8 isoelectrically precipitated fraction from soybeans was used because it produced the most precipitate and had about the same peroxidase activity as the other fractions. Gluten strength...

Precipitate size and number density are two key factors for tailoring the mechanical behavior of nanoscale precipitate-hardened alloys. However, during thermal aging, the precipitate size and number density change, leading to either poor strength or high strength but significantly reduced ductility. Here we demonstrate, by producing nanoscale co-precipitates in composition-optimized multicompon...
