BACKGROUND The first objective of this study was to investigate the public perceptions of private water and alternative sources with respect to safety, quality, testing and treatment in Newfoundland and Labrador (NL), Canada. The second objective was to provide public health practitioners with recommendations for improving knowledge translation (KT) efforts in NL, based on assessments of respon...

Human natural (KTAb), murine monoclonal (KTMAb), and single-chain recombinant (KTScFv) candidacidal antibodies representing the internal image of a killer toxin from the yeast Pichia anomala (KT), characterized by a wide spectrum of antibiotic activity, exerted a lethal effect against a KT-sensitive multidrug-resistant isolate of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. KTMAb and KTScFv were produced by the...

In general, a 2-yr disease-free duration is recommended before kidney transplantation (KT) in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients who also have acute leukemia. However, the optimal disease-free interval has not been specified for all subtypes of acute leukemia. Among these subtypes, acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) shows a favorable prognosis and low relapse rate compared to other types o...

Within a dynamic health research environment with trends toward increasing accountability, governments and funding agencies have placed increased emphasis on knowledge translation (KT) as a way to optimize the impact of research investments on health outcomes, research products and health service delivery. As a result, there is an increasing need for familiarity with the principles of KT framew...

In this study, we have developed a label-free immunosensor with the variation of resonance frequency (Δf) of a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) as readout signal for ultrasensitive detection of Ketamine (KT). An optimized strategy for immobilization of KT antibody on the surface of the QCM chip was implemented via the self-assembly modification of 3-mercaptopropionic acid, and then activated w...

Ketorolac tromethamine (KT) containing microemulsion-based gels (MBGs) have been formulated, based on the previous phase diagram studies, using a pharmaceutically acceptable surfactant (soybean lecithin; Epikuron 200) and oil (isopropyl myristate; IPM) and the effect of formulation variables on the release profile of the drug from MBGs through intact guinea pig skin and various artificial membr...

Müasir radiologiyanın ayrılmaz hisəsi olan Pozitron Emissiya Tomoqrafiyası (PET) dövrümüzün geniş yayılmış xəstəliklərindən xərçəng xəstəliyinin aşkar olunmasında istifadə olunan görüntüləmə texnologiyasıdır. Bu texnologiyanın tətbiqi ilə şişlər sıfırıncı mərhələdə öyrənilir, bu da həmin xəstəliyə gec olmadan müdaxilə etməyə imkan verir. pozitronun (β+) elektronla (e-) qarşılaşması nəticəsində ...
