The comparative in vitro skin permeability of diclofenac sodium through excised mouse skin from different common pharmaceutical vehicles like castor oil, olive oil, arachis oil, liquid paraffin, white soft paraffin melt, 3% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) aqueous gel and isopropyl myristate (IPM), excluding other excipients was evaluated. Significantly (p < 0.05) higher flux of diclofenac ...

The endophytic fungus Berkleasmium sp. Dzf12, isolated from Dioscorea zingiberensis, was found to produce palmarumycins C12 and C13 which possess a great variety of biological activities. Seven biocompatible water-immiscible organic solvents including n-dodecane, n-hexadecane, 1-hexadecene, liquid paraffin, dibutyl phthalate, butyl oleate and oleic acid were evaluated to improve palmarumycins C...

The hepatoprotective activity of a fraction of the leaf extract of A.indica against carbon tetrachloride : liquid paraffin (1:1) induced liver damage in rats at doses of 100 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg was evaluated. A significant dose dependent hepatoprotective activity was evidenced by lowering of the elevated levels of glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT), glutamate pyruvate transaminase (GPT),...

Dynamic viscosity of novel generated Copper Oxide (CuO)/Liquid Paraffin nanofluids is obtained experimentally for various temperatures and concentrations. To optimize the empirical process cost-efficiency, Feed-Forward Neural Networks (FFNNs) were modeled compared with Recursive Least Squares (RLS) Fuzzy model. prepare CuO/ liquid paraffin nanofluids, CuO nanoparticles are dispersed within para...

cu2o nanoparticles were synthesized by thermal treatment in liquid paraffin without any inert gas protection using nano structures of schiff base copper (ii) complex (1) as precursor. liquid paraffin was used as solvent and reductant. span 80 was applied to control the morphology of cuprous oxide nanoparticles. the nano structure of the complex was characterized by x-ray diffraction measurement...

Background. Sclerotherapy of esophageal varices is still the most popular endoscopic method of treatment, espe− cially in children. Sclerosants, chemicals with strong tissue irritant properties, may be injected into the lumen of a dilated vessel or submucosally along the variceal column. Objectives. The aim of this study was to compare the usefulness and efficiency of two sclerosants – sodium m...
