This two species have special important in pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Current study was carried out to investigation of different pre-treatments for enhancement of seed emergence potential, rate of emergence and v...

Hyaline cells are non-sensory epithelial cells of the vibrating part of the basilar membrane of chicks; they receive an extensive efferent innervation. Although these anatomical features suggest roles in auditory transduction, very little is known about the function of these cells. One possible way to understand function is by lesion experiments. We used synapsin-specific antibodies to study ch...

PURPOSE To investigate the prevalence of scleral hyaline plaque among older adults in the city of Niterói in southeastern Brazil. A second goal was to assess the correlation between scleral hyaline plaque and several age-related diseases, including eye diseases and systemic diseases. METHODS The study sample comprised 667 participants who were followed for 15 months. The study had a prospecti...

Representative portions of lung from 17 newborn infants with hyaline membrane disease were studied. The consistent findings in the hyaline membranes of Schiff's positivity requiring periodic acid pretreatment, their autofluorescence between 350 and 400 nm, and the granular ultrastructure of the membrane matrix provided morphologic evidence for lipid peroxidation's having occurred in association...

We present a case of pulmonary hyalinizing granuloma (PHG). On light microscopy, the pulmonary nodular lesions consisted of extracellular, eosinophilic hyaline lamellae. Histochemical stains of the hyaline lamellae for amyloid were focally positive and the diagnosis of amyloidosis was seriously considered; however, on electron microscopic examination, the hyaline lamellae consisted of electrond...

Forty-one methanol extracts of 28 indigenous medicinal plant species were tested for their insecticidal bioactivity against cotton whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae), adults and second nymphal instars under controlled conditions. This study is within a bioprospection context, in the form of utilizing local plant species as an alternative in sustainable agriculture dev...

INTRODUCTION Juvenile hyaline fibromatosis and infantile systemic hyalinosis are variants of the same autosomal recessive syndrome; hyaline fibromatosis syndrome, characterized by papulonodular skin lesions, gingival hypertrophy, flexion contractures of joints, osteolytic bone lesions and stunted growth. Infantile systemic hyalinosis is distinguished from juvenile hyaline fibromatosis by its mo...
