chubak extract because of its high saponin content, is a unique agent in production stable foam meantime has high pharmaceutical properties. the purpose of current research is to gain these advantages of chubak extract in sponge cake production. for this purpose 25, 50 and 75% of egg white in sponge cake was substituted with this extract and the effects of such substitution on physicochemical a...

white sponge nevus (wsn) is a rare hereditary dyskeratotic hyperplasia of mucous membranes. it is an autosomal dominant disorder with variable penetrance. we report a case of wsn in a healthy 21-year-old male with no history of familial involvement. a white smooth plaque with no erythema or other structural abnormalities was observed, which confirmed the diagnosis of wsn histopathologically.

White sponge nevus (WSN) is a rare oral mucosal lesion first described by Cannon in 1935, characterized as benign leukokeratotic lesion of early onset with periods of remission and exacerbation. It is usually asymptomatic, although pruritus, burning, and pain have been reported following irritating stimuli.WSN is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait with wide variability of expression and h...

We report on a novel sponge disease, hereafter termed 'sponge white patch' (SWP), affecting the Caribbean sponge species Amphimedon compressa. SWP is characterized by distinctive white patches of variable size that are found irregularly on the branches of diseased sponges. Nearly 20% of the population of A. compressa at Dry Rocks Reef, Florida, USA, showed symptoms of SWP at the time of investi...

Polyurethane sheet is a pure white, soft, and flexible synthetic sponge with a mechanical strength and abrasion resistance equivalent or even superior to other sponge materials. Our study indicates that the blood absorption power of the polyurethane sheet is equivalent to that of the cotton gauze even after repeated use, and it has the potential to decrease the total amount of sponge usage. Fur...
