neonatal unit; 18 of these infants had been born outside the hospital. While the overall survival rate was 47%, out of 17 normally formed infants born at 23-25 weeks' gestation only 2 (12%) survived. Both are so far neurodevelopmentally normal but one has severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia necessitating frequent admissions to hospital. The survival rate of 12% is in keeping with that of Professo...

It was reported that nanoparticles with polysorbate 80 (Tween 80, T-80) coating represented tools used for delivering drugs to brain. Nevertheless, disputations were once aroused for some complications. Aimed to have a better understanding of the specific role of T-80 coating on nanoparticles and simplify the problem, the direct observation of brain targeting combined with in vivo experiments w...

Contamination of folic acid assay medium with oleate led to a lag phase when Lactobacillus casei cultures were grown on folic acid but not when whole serum provided the folate source. This led to high assay values when using 20-hour incubation periods but satisfactory results were obtained after 48 hours' incubation. The addition of Tween 80 to the medium eliminated the lag phase and the assay ...
