para aminobenzoic acid paba/inflammation

Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is an oxygen-derived species involved in physiological processes related to the defence of the organism that may cause adverse effects when its production is insufficiently controlled. In order to examine its reactivity with potential scavenging molecules from the non

An experimental model of chronic pancreatitis was induced by a retrograde injection of a viscous solution consisting of zein-oleic acid-linoleic acid (0.05 ml/100 g body weight) into the rat pancreatic duct. Histologic and biochemical changes were investigated over a period of 6 months after

Melatonin is a good candidate for transdermal delivery considering its short plasma half life, low molecular weight and a favorable octanol:water partition coefficient. Nimesulide is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent used orally and rectally for inflammatory disorders. The objective of this

Para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) is an essential cofactor for the production of folic acid in bacteria and has mild anti-inflammatory activity. We have recently reported that salicylic acid and benzoic acid are oxidized by stimulated granulocytes Polymorphonuclear Neutrophils (PMN). The oxidation of

Imaging studies are frequently used to support the clinical diagnosis of infection. These techniques include computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for structural information and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) or positron emission tomography (PET) for

The modern patient is increasingly susceptible to bacterial infections including those due to multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs). Noninvasive whole-body analysis with pathogen-specific imaging technologies can significantly improve patient outcomes by rapidly identifying a source of infection and

Probiotic bacteria, mostly belonging to the genera Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, confer a number of health benefits to the host, including vitamin production. With the aim to produce folate-enriched fermented products and/or develop probiotic supplements that accomplish folate biosynthesis in
