From optical transmittance measurements, the absorption edge of 0.768 eV was determined for the 1 mu m a-plane film, consistent
with the expected Burstein-Moss effect. Photoluminescence spectra exhibited a lower energy peak at 0.631 eV, suggesting defect-related transitions.”
“The present study aimed to evaluate the persistent efficacy of a 3.5% doramectin* (700 mu g/kg) formulation compared to 3.15% ivermectin** (630 mu g/kg) treatment, administered subcutaneously at a dose of 1 mL/50 kg body weight in cattle experimentally infected with gastrointestinal nematodes. Seventy-two male crossbred Holstein cattle that were negative for helminth infection were divided into nine groups. Treatments of 3.5% doramectin (Groups 2, 4, 6 and and 3.15% ivermectin (Groups 3, 5, 7 and 9) were selleck chemicals administered on days 49, Duvelisib mw 42, 35 and 28 prior to challenge with infectious nematode larvae (L3). Animals in the control group (Group 1) received saline solution on day 49 before challenge. Beginning on day zero, each animal received 50 mL orally of a mixed culture containing approximately 3,000 third stage larvae (13) of Haemonchus (60%), Oesophagostomum (20%), Cooperia (15%) and Trichostrongylus (5%) for seven consecutive days, resulting in a total challenge of 21,000 larvae/animal.
Due to the large number of cattle, autopsies were performed between days 28 and 35 after the last day of inoculation. The formulation containing doramectin (700 mcg/kg) achieved persistent efficacy against H. placei and C. punctata for 49 and 35 days, respectively. The persistent efficacy of ivermectin (630 mcg/kg) against H. placei lasted for 49 days, but this treatment was ineffective against C punctata. Both formulations demonstrated persistent efficacy against T. axe! for 49 days. The persistent efficacy of doramectin (700 mcg/kg) and ivermectin (630 mcg/kg) lasted for 49 and 42 days against O. radiatum,
respectively. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All LY2835219 research buy rights reserved.”
“Gas gangrene of the breast is a rare infection and potentially mortal.
We report a case of a fast extension of a painful right breast erythema whose starting point was a right parasternal cutaneous abscess. A diagnosis of gas gangrene of the right breast was made. A right mammectomy was carried out in Emergency and an antibiotherapy adapted to the germs was given.
Mixed anaerobic and aerobic florae are often responsible for the infection. Its medico-surgical management is an emergency.”
