The gastric cytoprotective properties of natural honey (monofloral and polyfloral specimens) and of a glucose-fructose-sucrose-maltose mixture (GFSM) was evaluated in the rat using absolute ethanol, indomethacin and acidified acetylsalicylic acid (ASA-HCl) as necrotising agents. Prior gastric
BACKGROUND
Previous research suggested that splanchnic hypoperfusion occurs after resuscitation with certain acellular hemoglobin solutions. We examined the influence of maltose content and oxygen affinity on resuscitation with various hemoglobin polyoxyethylene conjugate solutions after
The cytoprotective properties of various natural honey specimens and of a glucose-fructose-sucrose-maltose mixture (GFSM) against gastric ethanol-induced lesions have been evaluated in rats. GFSM mixture and honey (2.5 g kg-1) were given orally 30 min before administration of 100% ethanol (5 ml
BACKGROUND
We have previously shown that natural honey is able to protect the rat stomach against acute ethanol- and indomethacin-induced lesions. The present investigations were undertaken to examine the role of intraluminal osmolality in this protective effect.

Mannitol,
The attempt to synthesize a lipid A-like component (the active portion of lipopolysaccharides, but lacking its endotoxic activity) resulted in the production of fatty acyl sugars of which maltose tetrapalmitate was seen to yield the most promising results. It shows no endotoxic activity and elicits
BACKGROUND
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) frequently results in several complications, including cerebral vasospasm, associated with high mortality. Although cerebral vasospasm is a major cause of brain damages after SAH, other factors such as inflammatory responses and oxidative stress also
Ninety culled dairy cows were used in this study and were paired by weight and conformation similarity. Forty-five cows were arterially infused immediately after bleeding with 10% volume by weight of a solution composed of dextrose (.23%), glycerin (.21%), a phosphate blend (.14%) and maltose (.1%).
We previously developed the two-layer cold storage method (TLM), which allows sufficient oxygen delivery to the canine pancreas during preservation, and successfully achieved 96-h preservation. In this study, we applied a modified TLM (cavitary TLM) to small bowel preservation in a canine
This report describes the clinical, radiological, microscopical and ligandohistochemical findings in a 17-year-old woman who suffered from an acute onset of pulmonary hemosiderosis after inhalation of pesticides used for the cultivation of strawberries. She complained of headache, dyspnea, rhinitis,
Management of protein-calorie malnutrition found in 32 patients with severe liver diseases such as fulminant hepatitis and cirrhosis of the liver was carried out using 2 types of synthetic amino acid solution (Hep-OU and Fischer solution) for intravenous and enteral alimentations with rapid
Many animals such as snails and Chinese giant salamanders can secrete mucus for moisturizing, eliminating swelling and inflammation, and promoting wound healing; this implies that high viscous bio-functional materials inspired by mucus may show potential for biomedical applications. Herein, we
BACKGROUND
Iron deficiency is the most common cause of Post-partum anaemia, reported as 50-60% in India. It is primarily due to inadequate iron intake and due to peripartum blood loss. It has been associated with significant post-partum complications. Therefore, Post-partum iron deficiency warrants
The genes encoding the 56-kDa polypeptides were amplified by polymerase chain reaction from the genomic DNAs of three serotypes of Rickettsia tsutsugamushi, Gilliam, Karp, and Boryong. The amplified products were cloned into expression vector pIH821, and the recombinant antigens were expressed in
