Abstract:
Abstract Healing abutment (HA) is a titanium screw used in implant dentistry to replace missing teeth. Although designed for single procedure, HA are frequently reused. Pathogen Associated Molecular Patterns (PAMPs), present on HA can elicit immune responses in vivo and may lead to implant failure. The aim of this study is to test four commonly employed protocols for HA detoxification. Forty HA collected from subjects with prior implant placement were randomly distributed and detoxified using four protocols (A–D, N=10/group).

There is a growing interest in innovative products for eyebrow hair loss treatment with fewer adverse effects.

Significant drawback of this approach is that neither in vivo nor in vitro methods are calibrated against human hazard data and results obtained in these assays

After complete cariogenic challenge sound and CAD dentin were evaluated by: visual inspection (VI), digital radiography (DR), optical coherence tomography (OCT) and laser fluorescence (LF).

Abstract:
A technology for encapsulation of swine semen in barium alginate and protamine alginate has recently been proposed for the controlled release of the spermatozoa, thus reducing the number of instrumental inseminations required. Controlled-release capsules containing swine spermatozoa were prepared by adding saturated BaCl2 solution to ejaculate and dropping the resulting suspension into a sodium alginate solution, leading to the formation of barium alginate capsules. A second type of capsule was obtained by cross-linking the barium alginate with protamine sulfate. Two types of membrane were thu

Abstract:
Design of peptide binders is an attractive strategy for targeting “undruggable” protein-protein interfaces. Current design protocols rely on the extraction of an initial sequence from one known protein interactor of the target protein, followed by in-silico or in-vitro mutagenesis-based optimization of its binding affinity. Wet lab protocols can explore only a minor portion of the vast sequence space and cannot efficiently screen for other desirable properties such as high specificity and low toxicity, while in-silico design requires intensive computational resources and often relies on simpli

The rabbit eye irritation test based on the Draize method is required for the hazard assessment of chemicals and products that may come into contact with the eye.

The use of anthracycline derivatives was approved for the treatment of a broad spectrum of human tumors (i.e., breast cancer). The need to test these drugs on cancer models has pushed the basic research to apply many types of in vitro assays, and, among them, the study of anthracycline-induced apoptosis was mainly based on the application of flow cytometry protocols. However, the chemical structure of anthracycline derivatives gives them a strong autofluorescence effect that must be considered when flow cytometry is used.

However, reduction in animal experiments is a goal for many worldwide, and there is a need to develop in vitro bioassays to reliably test the biological activity of insulin products.
