OBJECTIVE Staphylococcus aureus dominates the skin microbiota in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD), with bacterial loads correlating with disease severity. The aim of this exploratory study was to investigate the effect of a cosmetic lotion containing heat-treated Lactobacillus johnsonii NCC 533 (HT La1) on S. aureus colonization in AD patients. METHODS This open-label, multicenter study w...

Berbagai alternatif telah dilakukan untuk menghambat populasi nyamuk Aedes aegypti penyebab penyakit demam berdarah, diantaranya penggunaan lotion antinyamuk yang mengandung DEET. Untuk mengurangi resiko dan dampak negatif dari DEET, maka salah satu upaya pemanfaatan minyak atsiri kenanga (Cananga odorata) sebagai repellent atau alami. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui rendemen bunga kenanga,...

1. A small hypodermic syringe is used, the needle of which is sterilized by boiling for 2?3 mins. in a test tube. The syringe is washed out with 1 in *20 carbolic lotion by means of drawing up some of the lotion into the syringe 3?4 times. A small spoon is also placed in the 1 in 20 carbolic lotion and is used to receive the quinine lotion when it is poured out from the bottle previous to chang...

Exposure to synthetic glucocorticoids in utero markedly improves survival after preterm birth, but repeated exposures impair fetal and postnatal growth and are associated with evidence of insulin resistance in later life. The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis is an important regulator of growth and metabolism before and after birth. We have therefore investigated the effects of repeated mat...

A fast, specific, accurate and precise reverse phase high performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the simultaneous determination of butenafine hydrochloride and betamethasone in cream formulation. The determination was carried out on licrocart licrosphere RP-select B (250x4.6 mm, 5 mu) column in isocratic mode, the mobile phase consisting of 50 mM ammonium acetate buffer and...

BACKGROUND Infants who are born at 34 to 36 weeks of gestation (late preterm) are at greater risk for adverse respiratory and other outcomes than those born at 37 weeks of gestation or later. It is not known whether betamethasone administered to women at risk for late preterm delivery decreases the risks of neonatal morbidities. METHODS We conducted a multicenter, randomized trial involving w...

RATIONALE Chorioamnionitis and antenatal glucocorticoids are common exposures for preterm infants and can affect the fetal brain, contributing to cognitive and motor deficits in preterm infants. The effects of antenatal glucocorticoids on the brain in the setting of chorioamnionitis are unknown. We hypothesized that antenatal glucocorticoids would modulate inflammation in the brain and prevent ...

Two experiments were conducted to investigate the differences in susceptibility to foot pad dermatitis (FPD) of two medium-heavy lines of turkeys, and whether FPD is painful, by detailed analysis of behaviour in birds with and without analgesic treatment (betamethasone). Turkeys housed on dry litter in the first experiment generally had more frequent bouts of different behaviours that were of s...

Ovicidal activity and killing times were evaluated for six pediculicides, using viable eggs and recently fed head lice from infested children. Lice were continuously exposed to the products until death, and elapsed time was recorded. Eggs were immersed for ten minutes, rinsed, and dried. Four synergized pyrethrin products (RID, R&C Shampoo, A-200 Pyrinate Shampoo, A-200 Pyrinate Liquid) killed ...
