Abstract:
... Rabbits receiving antiseptic solutions to drink grew slightly, but not significantly, faster than the controls. The antiseptic solutions tended to thin the walls of the stomach, small intestine and caecum, but only a few of the results were significant. ...

Abstract:
... Despite increasing use of constructed wetlands for treatment of metal-enriched acid coal mine drainage (AMD), the biotic and abiotic mechanisms of metal retention in such wetlands are poorly understood. The present study was conducted to evaluate the processes responsible for Fe and Mn retention in peat and the effects of microbial activity, pH, temperature, and metal concentration in AMD on these ...
... V3703 (Stomadhex®*) is a tablet with bioadhesive properties enabling it to remain in place for several hours after it has been placed on the oral mucosa. It continuously releases chlorhexidine and niacinamide. In a study conducted in 15 dogs, the tablets were well tolerated by the animals. The product significantly reduced (p < 0.05): dental plaque; quantitative periodontopathogen and total anaero ...

Abstract:
... The pathogenesis of wound infections is largely dependent on adherence mechanisms and toxins. Studies of Staphylococcus intermedins indicate that pyoderma isolates can bind to extracellular matrix proteins exposed in wounds but interpretation of adherence studies is complicated as some organisms possess multiple mechanisms. Studies of blocking and promotion of adherence by antibiotics also show va ...

Abstract:
... A number of proprietary disinfectant products (18) used in the food industry were tested for their bactericidal efficacy against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli O157:H7 at 20 and 10 degrees C according to the BS EN 1276 (1997) quantitative suspension test for the evaluation of bactericidal activity of chemical disinfectants and antiseptics used in food, industrial, domestic and institu ...
wounds and injuries; ointments; antiseptics; solutions; topical application; mice
Abstract:
... Impaired wound healing is an important problem; retardation of healing may be induced by endogenous and/or exogenous factors and treatments capable of ameliorating these effects are needed. The effects of solutions containing light ichthyol or povidone iodine, of ointments containing zinc oxide (ZO) and/or cod liver oil (CLO), and of a polyurethane‐hydrogel foam wound dressing were examined on hea ...
... Three treatments were tested on blacklip pearl oysters, Pinctada margaritifera, during the bead insertion process as part of research to improve the efficiency of round pearl culture. The oysters (100 to 150 mm shell height) were maintained on a commercial farm at Manihiki atoll, Cook Islands. The three treatments were (1) immersion of the oysters in 2 ml/l propylene phenoxetol for 15 min to relax ...
... The potential cytotoxic effects of the compounds 8-quinolinol, chloramine-T and natamycin have been studied in isolated pig hepatocytes. The relative cytotoxicity of these compounds was evaluated on the basis of the leakage of cytosolic lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), 3-(4,5 dimethyl)thiazol-2-yl,-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) reduction by mitochondrial dehydrogenases, uptake of neutral red ...
... The clinical and microbiological effects of zinc ascorbate gel applied orally in cats were evaluated during a 42-day study period. Cats were divided randomly into two equal groups, with the treatment group (18 cats) receiving zinc ascorbate gel and the control group (18 cats) receiving a placebo (0.9 % sterile saline). Clinical parameters evaluated biweekly included halitosis, plaque, calculus, an ...
... Eryngium foetidum is a perennial herb native to tropical America whose leaves are used as food seasoning. The aerial parts of this plant were hydrodistilled and the essential oil was collected in a Clevenger-type trap. The oil was analyzed by GC and GC/MS. The main constituents were 2,4,5-trimethyl-benzaldehyde (27.7%), (E)-2-dodecenal (27.5%), carotol (8.8%), 3-dodecenal (5.2%) and gamma-terpinen ...

Nematology , 2005, Vol. 7(2), 309-312 Short communication A method to prove secretion of proteins by the plant-parasitic nematode Heterodera schachtii using Dynabeads Bartel V ANHOLME and Godelieve G HEYSEN ∗ Proteins secreted by parasites play an important role during the interaction with their host. In the case of plant- parasitic nematodes, cell wall degrading enzymes are se- creted which facil ...
