abstract: peganum harmala l. (zygophylaceae) has been used in a variety of practical applications in medical science. our objective in the current study was to determine the effects of the seed extract on herpes simplex virus type 1 (hsv-1) replication in vero cells. different concentrations (100, 500, 571, 667, 800 and 1000 µg/ml) of the extract were examined. experiments were carried out usin...

introduction: in this study we examined the effect of different concentration of cycloheximide on the enhancement of vero cell sensitivity to vero cytotoxin (vt) of escherichia coli. materials and method: cycloheximide at different concentrations (0.5-16mg/ml) were added to vero cells, for different peroids of time: 1 day before, immediately after, or 1 and 2 days after the adddition of vt. res...

Background This study was undertaken to investigate the efficiency of two different embryo somatic cell co-culture conditions tissue culture medium 199 (TCM199)–vero cells and Menezo B2 (B2)-vero cells for the in vitro developmental quantity and quality of bovine embryos. MaterialsAndMethods Bovine oocytes were allowed to mature and subsequently undergo fertilization in vitro. Their presumptive...

Background: Morphological changes of the cells infected with rubella virus cannot be observed easily. Estimation of the size of the cultured cells can be a valuable parameter in this condition. This study was conducted to find answers to the following questions:How much time after infection with rubella virus, the volume and surface area of the Vero cells and their nuclei get started to change?...

Introduction: Inactivated influenza vaccines are traditionally produced in chicken embryonated eggs but its limitations in producing the required doses in pandemic outbreaks quickly enough has made searching for alternative modes of production necessary. The use of cell culture-based vaccine production is one way of overcoming the limitations of the egg-based method and securing a more rapid re...

introduction and aims: omeprazole is a gastric parietal cells proton pump inhibitor that is also active against h. pylori in vitro. this study was designed to examine the neutralization of h. pylori cytotoxicity on vero cells by omeprazole micronized in strains isolated from gastritis, ulcer, cancer and barrett's ulcer, to determine whether omeprazole can inhibit vacuolation of the vero cells i...
