In this study, extraction conditions physico-chemical properties water-soluble polysaccharides (OMP) from mucilage were investigated. The cactus cladodes used study collected Binh Thuan province, Vietnam. optimum water with conventional heating included at temper...

Strains. The strains examined are all maintained in the Pasteur Culture Collection (PCC) and havenow been deposited in the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC). They are identified here by both PCC and ATCC strain numbers. Full strain histories, media employed for cultivation and the explanation of generic terminology are given by Rippka et al. (1979). An additional strain (Oscillatoria agar...

Numerous methods, enzymatic and chemical, have been reported for the determination of small amounts of citric acid in biological fluids. Of the chemical methods the majority involve the conversion of the citric acid to pentabromoacetone, which may be estimated by various gravimetric, titrimetric, or calorimetric procedures. The more recent modifications (l-3) of the met.hod have simplified it a...

INTRODUCTION Maxillary bone losses often require additional regenerative procedures: as a supplement to the procedures of tissue regeneration, a platelet concentrate called PRF (Platelet Rich Fibrin) was tested for the first time in France by Dr. Choukroun. Aim of the present study is to investigate, clinically and histologically, the potential use of PRF, associated with deproteinized bovine b...

Abstract The limited options for bone repair have led to an extensive research of the field and development alloplastic xenogeneic grafts. purpose this study was evaluate with two substitutes: deproteinized bovine (DBB) biphasic calcium phosphate ceramic (BCP) in critical-size defect. A total 8-mm defects were made parietal bones rabbits (n=12). animals divided into three experimental groups: s...
