OBJECTIVE
The prevalence and potential health effects of common food antimicrobials in processed foods and beverages are relatively unknown in Singapore. The occurrence of chemical antimicrobials in processed foods and beverages and their effects on inflammation and oxidative stress in vitro were
Sorbic acid concentrations as low as 0.1% produced transient erythema with edema and flare after open or closed application to human skin. Multiple areas of the body were tested. Reactions were most intense on the face but also could be produced on the back, forearm, and deltoid areas. Sorbic
BACKGROUND
Organic acids, such as citric and sorbic acid, and pure plant-derived constituents, like monoterpens and aldehydes, have a long history of use in pig feeding as alternatives to antibiotic growth promoters. However, their effects on the intestinal barrier function and inflammation have
At weaning, piglets are exposed to many stressors, such as separation from the sow, mixing with other litters, end of lactational immunity, and a change in their environment and gut microbiota. The sudden change of feeding regime after weaning causes morphological and histological changes in the
Bioactive compounds, such as organic acids (OA) and nature-identical compounds (NIC), can exert a role in the protection of intestinal mucosa functionality due to their biological properties. The aim of this study was to understand the role of 2 OA (citric and sorbic acid) and 2 NIC (thymol and
Ebselen (EBS), 2-phenyl-1,2-benzisoselenazol-3(2H)-one, is an organoselenium pharmaceutical with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Furthermore, EBS is an excellent scavenger of reactive oxygen species. This property complicates conventional protocols for sensitizing and quenching
BACKGROUND
The leading complication of leg ulcers is the development of peri-lesional eczema. The etiological diagnosis is often difficult due to the large number of topical agents used.
METHODS
Fifty patients, 35 women and 15 men, mean age 67.8 years, range 37-91 years, with leg ulcers of variable
The objective of this study was to formulate and evaluate the pluronic lecithin organogel containing flurbiprofen for topical application. Different formulations of pluronic lecithin organogels were prepared by using pluronic F127, lecithin, flurbiprofen, isopropyl palmitate, water, sorbic acid, and
In order to classify the new topical preparations amcinonide cream and prednicarbate cream according to the order of potency laid down by the EEC commission, we performed a number of test series in healthy young persons. Betamethasone valerate cream, clobestasol propionate cream, flumethasone
An 8-week feeding trial was undertaken to evaluate supplemental effects of AviPlus® (AP), a blend of organic acids [citric acid, 25%; sorbic acid, 16.7%] and essential oils [thymol, 1.7%; vanillin, 1.0%], on growth, gut microbiota, innate immunity and disease resistance of Pacific white shrimp
Immune system activation and inflammation are deeply involved in the pathogenesis of a variety of diseases including infections, autoimmunity and malignancy as well as allergy and asthma. The incidence of allergy and asthma has significantly increased during the past decades. Still the background of
OBJECTIVE
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, including sodium salicylate, inhibit extracellular bacterial biofilm production. The authors studied the effect of the addition of sodium salicylate on bacterial adherence and biofilm formation on contact lenses and cases and commonly used medical
