2.1.1 Aqueous extracts preparation The dried form of plant was mixed with sterile distilled water in a ration of 1:20 (100 g in 1 L solvent), and was stirred and heated for about 4 hours. After cooling, the extract was filtered by using Whatman No.1 filter paper. The filtrate was collected and frozen in ice cube container. The frozen ice cube was freeze-dried (i.e. lyophilisation) to obtain con...

The objective was to evaluate the technological processing (protection strategies and storage conditions) influence on viability, probiotic properties adsorbent aflatoxin B1 capacity of S. boulardii RC009. Also, yeast biological safety evaluated. Lyophilisation (DL) encapsulation ​+ ​lyophilisation (EL) were conducted. Yeast protected with maltodextrin (M) or WPC stored at 4 ​°C reduced 1 2 log...

Poorly water-soluble and photosensitive pesticide compounds are difficult to formulate as solvent-free nanoformulations with high efficacy. A avermectin solid nanodispersion with a mean particle size of 188 nm was developed by microprecipitation and lyophilisation techniques. The suspensibility and wetting time of the solid nanodispersion in water were 99.8% and 13 s, respectively, superior to ...

Pseudotype viruses (PVs) are chimeric, replication-deficient virions that mimic wild-type virus entry mechanisms and can be safely employed in neutralisation assays, bypassing the need for high biosafety requirements and performing comparably to established serological assays. However, PV supernatant necessitates -80°C long-term storage and cold-chain maintenance during transport, which limits ...

Experimental infections and lethal dose 50% (LD 50) evaluation were conducted in rainbow trout fingerlings, using a virulent strain of Flavobacterium psychrophilum processed and stored or maintained in different ways; lyophilisation, freezing at -80 degrees C, maintenance in enriched Anacker and Ordal (EAO) medium at 4 degrees C, revival and subsequent in vivo passages in fish. Experiments were...

PURPOSE Hydrophobic drugs are facing a major challenge in dissolution rate enhancement and solubility in aqueous solutions; therefore, a variety of methods have been used to improve dissolution rate and/or solubility of bendroflumethiazide as a model hydrophobic drug. METHODS In this study, two main methods (physical mixing and lyophilisation) were used with gluconolactone, hydroxyl propyl γ-...
