introduction: to recognize the myelinated nerve fibers of the external capsule in human brain. materials and methods: 10 adult and normal brains (20 hemispheres) from both sexes were studied using 15 mm serial sections in all three cardinal planes after fixation and processing. these sections were stained by klüver - barrera and heidenhain - woelcke methods. results: some fibers from different ...

purpose: to evaluate the diagnostic signs, intraoperative complications and postoperative outcomes in children with congenital cataract and pre-existing posterior capsule defect (ppcd). methods: this interventional case series was conducted on 14 eyes of 7 patients who underwent lensectomy-anterior vitrectomy for congenital cataract with ppcd. all children had bilateral cataract. preoperative d...

capsules from a range of pathogenic bacteria are the key determinants of virulency. the capsule hasbeen implicated in virulence of pasteurella multocida. in this study a type-specific polymerase chain reaction(pcr) assay was used for capsular typing of 39 avian p. multocida isolates from iran. the pcr amplified afragment of 1044 bp from all of tested isolates. it was found that all avian p. mul...

purpose: to evaluate the effect of limited dissection of tenon sheath on the outcome of horizontal strabismus surgery. methods: patients with horizontal strabismus, aged between six and 50 years, were enrolled in this non-randomized study. patients with pattern and vertical strabismus or a history of strabismus surgery were excluded. the strabismus surgeries consisted of bimedial recession (bmr...

introduction: to recognize the myelinated nerve fibers of the external and extreme capsules in human brain. materials and methods: 10 adult and normal brains (20 hemispheres) from both sexes were studied using 15 mm serial secions in all three cardinal planes after fixation and processing. these sections were stained by klüver – barrera and heidenhin – woelcke methods. results: some fibers from...

background: klebseilla pneumoniae causes urinary tract infections, nosocomial pneumonia and intra-abdominal infections. capsular antigens are considered to be the ultimate virulence determinants. among 77 capsular serotypes of k. pneumoniae, serotypes k1 and k2 are the most virulent ones in humans. objectives: we designed a pcr method for detection of capsular serotypes k1 and k2 of k. pneumoni...

Phalaenopsis is an important genus of orchids that is grown for economical production of cut flower and potted plants. The objective of this study is the evaluation of correlation between morphological and physiological traits of self and cross-pollination of 5 varieties of Phalaenopsis orchid. Some morphological traits were measured: Capsule length (CL), capsule volume (CV), weight of seeds in...

conclusions the results of the current study demonstrated that type iii is the predominant type in hamedan, followed by types v, type ii, type ia, ib and iv, respectively. use of the molecular serotyping (ms) method such as pcr assay as an alternative to conventional serotyping (cs) method leads to accurate, sensitive, specific, and fast typing of gbs isolates. results among the 62 gbs isolates...

opium poppy (papaver somniferum l.) has two major products: alkaloids in the capsules and the seeds.  the seed contains oil, protein, carbohydrate, moisture and mineral matters. the seed oil is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, particularly linoleic and oleic acid. remaining meals after oil extraction are the important source for animal diets. the united nations recognize turkey and india as tra...

we report a 64-year-old diabetic woman who developed neovascularization of the posterior capsule 2 years after cataract surgery and intraocular lens implantation. the patient was treated with single injection of 1.25 mg of intravitreal bevacizumab (avastin) via pars plana. after one week, complete regression of the posterior capsule neovascularization was achieved allowing us to perform nd: yag...
