the measurement of anti-streptokinase antibodies can distinguish the patients who may benefit from streptokinase and those who should be treated with some other thrombolytic regimen. neutralising titration test is a commonly used classical assay for measuring anti-streptokinase antibodies and in this assay the ability of anti-streptokinase antibodies in patients' sera in preventing the lytic ef...

a new method was used to prepare abs/pa6 blends by in situ polymerization and compatibilization method. in this process, ε-caprolactam monomer was polymerized in presence of abs via activated anionic polymerization to produce pa6. the main ingredients of the reaction mixture included: monomer ()ε-caprolactam), catalyst na-caprolactamate), microactivator hdi)( and macro-activator sma)(. then, in...

tenecteplase is a variant of tissue plasminogen activator (t-pa) which has better pharmacokinetic properties and more selective thrombolytic activity. in the present study, we describe a rapid method to introduce three sets of mutation into defined positions in t-pa cdna by a site-directed mutagenesis based on a megaprimer pcr approach to produce tenecteplase coding sequence where amino acids a...

standard protocols should be established for treating eligible stroke patients with tissue plasminogen activator (tpa) (recommendation class i, level of evidence b). the iranian standard protocol of intravenous thrombolysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (ivttpa) is the best possible and easy to use method for performing intravenous thrombolysis in iran. this protocol overcomes p...

it has been shown that geopolymerization can transform a wide range of waste aluminosilicate materials into building materials with excellent chemical and physical properties such as fire and acid resistance. in this research work, geopolymerization of construction waste materials with different alkali-activators based on combinations of na2sio3 and naoh has been investigated. a number of syste...

objective(s): echis carinatus is one of the venomous snakes in iran. the venom of iranian echis carinatus is a rich source of protein with various factors affecting the plasma protein and blood coagulation factor. some of these proteins exhibit types of enzymatic activities. however, other items are proteins with no enzymatic activity.   materials and methods: in order to study the mechanism an...

:the aim of this work is to investigate the influence of sodium oxide on properties of fresh and hardened paste of alkali-activated blast furnace slag from isfahan steel plant. the silica modulus (sio2/na2o) of activator was adjusted at 0.6 and a number of mixes were designed in such a way to contain different levels of sodium oxide including 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6% by weight of dry slag. the mos...

background: in patients with acute ischemic cerebral infarction, thrombolytic therapy using intravenous tissue plasminogen activator (iv?tpa) necessitates precise documentation of symptoms’ onset. the aim of this study was to identify major barriers related to the iv?tpa injection in such patients. materials and methods: between 2014 and 2015, patients with definitive diagnosis of acute cerebra...

purpose: to compare the effect of tissue plasminogen activator (tpa) and aspirin in patients with central retinal vein occlusion. methods: a prospective interventional study was conducted on patients with central retinal vein occlusion of less than 28 days' duration. patients in the tpa group received 100 μg intravitreal tissue plasminogen activator and the patients who declined intravitre...
