Five groups of ten male Wistar rats each were used for the purpose of this experiment. All subjects suffered from sterile acute inflammation in the peritoneal cavity. A sterile beef heart infusion broth reinforced with proteose-peptone was injected to cause the inflammation. The following substances
A group of male Wistar rats (strain AF/HAN) received carrageenin in a tragacanth suspension and saline solution by subplantar injection into the right and left hind paws, respectively. Another group was treated similarly with Mycobacterium butyricum in Freund's adjuvant given in the right hind paw
A number of anti-inflammatory substances and cyclophosphamide were tested for their anti-inflammatory activity on a modified carrageenin-tragacanth-induced oedema of the rat paw. The oral application of the substances occurred before or simultaneously with the induction of the inflammation
Belonging to the classes of: Rofams, Rokopols and Rokanols were used to form the gels soap base. The model gels extensibility was investigated by extensometric method, while their viscosity parameters were determined with cone-plate digital rheometer. Regardless of the applied gel vehicle, model
In an effort to increase the oral bioavailability of Amphotericin B (AmB), a pH-sensitive drug carrier composed of Tragacanth (Trag) and acrylic acid (AAc) was prepared using γ-irradiation. The swelling behavior of (Trag/AAc) hydrogels was characterized as a function of pH and ionic strength of the
BACKGROUND
Ziziphus jujuba belongs to family Rhamnaceae widely distributed in subtropical and tropical countries. It is used traditionally for several pharmacological purposes including anti-inflammation, antidiarrhoeal and antibacterial, as well as tonic and sometimes as hypnotic
Newly, fabrication of scaffolds along with the therapeutic agent of tetracycline hydrochloride for application in wound healing and anti-inflammatory effect could interest consideration. In this work, we developed a novel drug delivery mat composed of gum tragacanth (GT), zein, poly lactic acid
Twenty-two female rabbits with fallopian tube obstruction as the model, were made by 25% Phenol-Tragacanth Mucilage in the laboratory study. Eight rabbits were treated by taking Tong Jing Bao and giving transcervical intrauterine injecting of Angelicae complex injection. Seven were treated with the

METHODS
We randomly
We investigated in a rabbit model, the eye distribution of topically instilled benzalkonium_(BAK) chloride a commonly used preservative in eye drops using mass spectrometry imaging. Three groups of three New Zealand rabbits each were used: a control one without instillation, one receiving 0.01%BAK
