background: this study was performed to induce conversion of rh strain tachyzoites of toxoplasma gondii to bradyzoites by ph changing of the cul­ture medium. methods: hela cell monolayers were infected at a 1:1 tachyzoite to cell ratio. four hours after infection, the culture medium was removed and re­placed with culture medium and 5% fcs, adjusted to ph 8 with naoh. the culture was maintained ...

purpose: to report the clinical, histopathologic, microbiologic and confocal microscopic features of candida keratitis after deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (dalk). patients and findings: the first patient presented with asymptomatic white to cream-colored interface deposits two months after dalk. confocal scan disclosed clusters of hyper-reflective fine granular deposits in the interface w...

In this critical review, we aim at providing a holistic representation of crystal-like structure formation mediated by hydrodynamic interactions in microfluidic devices.
