Cephalexin for Oral Suspension, USP, is a pink colored powder forming pink colored suspension on constitution. After mixing, each 5 mL of cephalexin for oral suspension, will contain cephalexin USP equivalent to 125 mg (360 μmol) or 250 mg (720 μmol) of anhydrous cephalexin. The suspension also contains the following inactive ingredients: colloidal silicon dioxide, FD&C Red No. 40, sodium benzo...

Macrorhabdosis is a debilitating syndrome in budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus) due to theascomycetous yeast Macrorhabdus ornithogaster. In the present study, occurrences of acutemacrorhabdosis resulting in severe mortality in budgerigar fledglings and the effect of differenttreatment regimens for the control of the disease were investigated. The budgerigar (Melopsittacusundulates) flock con...

There is a need to develop dosage forms suitable for children improve drug treatment. Extemporaneous compounding of drugs one way meet these needs. However, excipients generally considered as safe in adults may not be appropriate intended children. The aim was optimize the composition two pediatric liquid preparations by substituting paraben microbiological preservative and ethanol solubilizer,...

Tomato leafminer, Tuta absoluta Meyrick (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) is one of the most destructive pests of tomato in many parts of the world including Iran. The toxicity of emamectin benzoate alone and combined with acetamiprid, eforia (thiamethoxam + lambda-cyhalotrin) and hexaflumuron was evaluated against 2nd instar larvae of Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) under 25 ± 1 °C, the relative humidity of ...

Pumiliotoxin B (PTX-B), an alkaloid that has cardiotonic and myotonic activity, increases sodium influx in guinea pig cerebral cortical synaptoneurosomes. In the presence of scorpion venom (Leiurus) or purified alpha-scorpion toxin, the PTX-B-induced sodium influx is enhanced severalfold. PTX-B alone has no effect on sodium flux in N18 neuroblastoma cells but, in the presence of alpha-scorpion ...

A simple and rapid method for spore rec-assay by utilizing dry sheet medium culture (Compactdry TC, CTC) for determining numbers of bacteria, instead of the spore agar plate, was developed. One mL of spore suspension (2 x 10(6)/mL) of Bacillus subtilis strain M45 Rec- or H17 Rec+ was inoculated in the center of the CTC plate. In the case of metabolic activation, 1 mL of mixed solution (spore su...

Bacterial profile modification is an important enhanced oil recovery technique used to direct injected water into a reservoir's low permeability zone containing trapped crude oil. During water flooding, the use of bacteria to plug the high permeability water zone and divert flow into the oil-bearing low-permeability zone will have a significant economic impact. However, during the field impleme...
