UNLABELLED The aim of this study was to make a conclusion about aplicability of two differnet gonadothropins in COS (rFSH versus HP-hMG). The primary conclusion for the success as a result of COS are the mean number of retrived oocytes, mature oocytes, fertilization rate, mean number of quality embrios, and criopreverzed embrios. The secondary conclusions were clinical pregnancy rate and delive...

Basal cell carcinomas (BCC) of the skin are the most common of human cancers. The noncanonical NF-κB pathway is dependent on IKKα. However, the role of IKKα in BCC has not been elucidated. We show here that IKKα is expressed in the nucleus in BCC and non-malignant diseases. Nuclear IKKα could directly bind to the promoters of inflammation factors and LGR5, a stem cell marker, in turn, upregulat...

this study examines the controlled release behavior of both water-soluble (acetaminophen, caffeine, theophylline and salicylic acid) and water insoluble (indomethacin) drugs derived from caesalpinia pulcherrima seed gum isolated from caesalpinia pulcherrima kernel powder. it further investigates the effect of incorporating diluents such as microcrystalline cellulose and lactose on caffeine rele...

microparticles offer various significant advantages as drug delivery systems, including: (i) an effective protection of the encapsulated active agent against (e.g. enzymatic) degradation, (ii) the possibility to accurately control the release rate of the incorporated drug over periods of hours to months, (iii) an easy administration (compared to alternative parenteral controlled release dosage ...

the objective of present research was to design, evaluate and compare drug release from two different dosage forms in pulsatile drug delivery system (dds) for metoprolol tartarate (mt) as tablet and capsule. pulsatile systems are gaining a lot of interest as they deliver the drug at the right site of action at the right time and in the right amount, thus providing spatial and temporal delivery ...

extended release formulation of alfuzosin, an a-antagonist used for prostatic hypertrophy, is available in market. it is convenient for older patients to take only one tablet a day. marketed alfuzosin formulation is three layered geomatrix tablet that requires special facilities, high cost, more time and complex operation than normal direct compression formulation. therefore, a less complicated...

abstract mineral weathering is a major source of most essential nutrients including potassium. it is well known that potassium plays an important role in improving the quality of agricultural products and micaceous minerals, as the major source of potassium, are abundant in iranian soils. no information is available on the role of micaceous minerals in supplying k to barley as the second major ...

abstract heated micaceous minerals under different commercial brand names (including vermiculite) are used as culture medium in greenhouses. heating minerals affects the release of elements, such as potassium, by changing their structure. the present study, investigates the ability of alfalfa, as one of the most important fodder around the world, to take up the non-exchangeable and structural p...

the effect of different kinds of surfactants in various concentrations incorporated in an inert matrix, on the release of procainamide hydrochloride, as a cationic model compound, was investigated in this study. sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium stearate as anionic surfactants, cetyl pyridinium chloride and cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide as cationic and span 60 and tween 80 as non-ionic surfact...

it is possible to alter the permeability of ethyl cellulose membrane with certain materials such as surfactants. in this study the effect of surfactant concentration and different hlb values on the release rate of atenolol from ethyl cellulose-coated tablets was evaluated. the results showed that when the concentration of surfactant increased, the rate of drug release also increased. the kineti...
