OBJECTIVE
To report a case of excimer laser phototherapeutic keratectomy retreatment of anterior basement membrane (ABM) dystrophy and Salzmann's nodular degeneration with a single intraoperative application of topical mitomycin C (0.02%).
METHODS
Case report.
RESULTS
A 91-year-old woman underwent
The Flinders Technology Australia (FTA) Elute Card is a commercial product that facilitates the collection, transport, archiving and processing of nucleic acids from a wide variety of biological samples at room temperature. While the cards have been designed so that sterile/deionized water can elute
Increment cores from the boreal forest have long been used to reconstruct past climates. However, in recent years, numerous studies have revealed a deterioration of the correlation between temperature and tree growth that is commonly referred to as divergence. In the Brooks Range of northern Alaska,
Among animals, urochordates (e.g., ascidians) are unique in their ability to biosynthesize cellulose. In ascidians cellulose is synthesized in the epidermis and incorporated into a protective coat know as the tunic. A putative cellulose synthase-like gene was first identified in the genome sequences
A cellulose acetate membrane was fashioned into a cone to serve as a substratum for an outgrowth of connective tissue from normal neonatal muscle, and a container for diffusion of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) of an aggregate of BMP and cold water insoluble noncollagenous protein (BMP/iNCP). The
The newly isolated Paenibacillus sp. M33 from freshwater swamp forest soil in Thailand demonstrated its potential as a cellulose degrader. One of its endoglucanase genes from Paenibacillus sp., celP, was cloned to study the molecular characteristics of its gene product. The celP gene was recognized
The design, construction, and characterization of a prototype-regenerable glucose biosensor based on the reversible immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOx) using cellulose binding domain (CBD) technology is described. GOx, chemically linked to CBD, is immobilized by binding to a cellulose matrix on
TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) encapsulated in hollow silica spheres (TiO2@HSSs) show a shielding-effect that can insulate photocatalytically active TiO2 NPs from the surrounding environment and thus prohibit the self-degradation of organic support materials under ultraviolet (UV)-light irradiation. In
Tissue softening accompanies the ripening of many fruits and initiates the processes of irreversible deterioration. Expansins are plant cell wall proteins that have been proposed to disrupt hydrogen bonds within the cell wall polymer matrix. Several authors have shown that FaEXPA2 is a key gene that
Liquid biopsy with circulating free DNA (cfDNA) is a recommended alternative method of re-biopsy. Quality control with cfDNA is indispensable for precise examinations, and it is desirable to achieve high-quality cfDNA separation. We investigated two issues: the influence of pre-analytical procedures
The formation of aggregates by polyglutamine-containing (polyQ) proteins in neurons is a key to the pathogenesis of several progressive neurodegenerative diseases such as Huntington's disease (HD) spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs), and spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA). In order to study
