Preparation of coating solutions Chitosan solution was prepared with 2 % (w/v) chitosan in 1% (v/v) acetic acid glacial. The solution was placed on a hot plate/magnetic stirrer for 6 h. The resultant chitosan-based coating solution was filtrated, through a Whatman filter paper No: 2, glycerol was added at 0.75 % (w/v), and stirred for more than 15 minutes. Two of the best concentrations, 60 and 90 mg mL−1 were prepared from freeze-dried IgY for S. putrefaciens and P. fluorescens respectively.…
The carbohydrates present on the cells surface can act as a receptor for many pathogens to facilitate cell-cell adhesion through which humans can be infected, for example, mannose binds pathogenic bacteria E. coli and sialic acid binds influenza virus. Therefore, cell surface can be mimicked by preparing SAMs of carbohydrates to study and understand different types of binding and inhibition studies in vitro. SAMs of carbohydrates are also used for detecting disease biomarkers and carrying drugs.…

Sulphur dioxide (total and free) analysis was carried out using the Metrohm titration unit (Metrohm Ltd., Switzerland). Malolactic fermentation in the wine was monitored by obtaining the malic- and lactic acid concentrations on a regular basis (at the start of MLF and every seven days thereafter) until its completion (taken as the…
medication is rather inconsistent and has often lead to GI distress and other side effects as a result of drug to drug interaction. Topical lidocaine in the form of a patch (5%) when used at recommended dosage has been shown that there is no need for titration and there is no…
CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND STUDY Wastewater in the textile , plastic, paper and cosmetics industry is a major threat to the environment. The volume of wastewater produced starts from different processes throughout from the pretreatments to the final treatment. The contents found in the wastewater are complex, having inorganic and organic compound chemicals in it and aquatic lives are at risk. Some of these wastes have even caused mutation in genetic coding of the marine…

Assisted suicide is done with the help of another person, which is usually done by a physician. The physician provides the medication and or other interventions of suicide to a patient who is capable of carrying out the chosen decision. Assisted suicide is used interchangeable with the term euthanasia. Euthanasia is ending a person’s life that is suffering from a terminal illness or incurable disease. How much pain does a person have to be in to be allowed to die, and who should be able to…
Abstract: Hemoglobin is an iron-containing protein in red blood cells that enable the red blood cell to bind oxygen in the lung and transport the oxygen to tissues and organs throughout the body. Oxygen binds reversibly to these iron atoms and is carried throughout the blood. As part of the experiment, we computed the concentration of hemoglobin and iron in a crystalline blood sample by measuring the absorbance of the sample as methemoglobin and cynamethemoglobin at 450-650nm. Furthermore, the…
“Comparative Evaluation of oral Midazolam, Oral Ketamine and Oral Midazolam-Ketamine combination as conscious sedative agents in Unco-operative pediatric dental patients” Abstract Introduction: Pediatric dentists often encounter young, fearful and uncooperative patients. Managing anxious children in the operatory has always been a challenging task. Various aversive and non-aversive techniques have been employed to manage such patients. But these techniques cause a traumatic experience in the…
