Intrauterine alcohol exposure disturbs trabecular morphology in the Sprague Dawley rat humerus epiphysis up to 3- weeks postnatally

Int. j. morphol; 39 (5), 2021
SUMMARY: Gestational alcohol exposure inhibits neurological as well as bone growth and development both in fetal and postnatal life. Stunted stature, osteoporosis and fractures in adult life are some of the adverse effects. While the impact of intrauterine alcohol on the brain has been extensively invest...

Alcohol (70%) versus alcoholic chlorhexidine solution (0. 5%) in skin antisepsis for neuraxial blocks: a randomized clinical trial

Rev. Col. Bras. Cir; 48 (), 2021
ABSTRACT Objective: to compare the use of 0.5% alcoholic chlorhexidine and 70% alcohol in skin antisepsis for neuraxial blocks. Method: this is a non-inferiority randomized clinical trial, with two parallel arms. Seventy patients who were candidates for neuraxial block were randomly allocated to grou...

Brain structure morphology after being fixated with ethanol on electron microscope

Int. j. morphol; 38 (2), 2020
Fixation is one of the processes in preparing histology and pathology. The common material for fixation is buffered formalin including paraformaldehyde. However, the effect of the damaged cells, which is fixed for a long time, causes the research for other fixation materials to become necessary. In addit...

Effect of ethanol-wet bonding on porosity and retention of fiberglass post to root dentin

Abstract: This in vitro study aimed to assess the effects of different pretreatments used to adapt glass-fiber posts cemented to root canals with different resin cements, regarding porosity percentage and bond strength. Twelve bovine incisor roots were prepared with Largo drills. After post space prepara...

Effect of ethanol extracts of Antrodia cinnamomea on head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell line

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 53 (6), 2020
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the most common malignant tumors. Ethanol extract of Antrodia cinnamomea (EEA) has been widely studied for its health benefits including anticancer effects. The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of EEA on HNSCC. Cell proliferation, tra...

An. acad. bras. ciênc; 89 (2), 2017
ABSTRACT Hepatic disorders such as steatosis and alcoholic steatohepatitis are common diseases that affect thousands of people around the globe. This study aims to identify the main phenol compounds using a new HPLC-ESI+-MS/MS method, to evaluate some oxidative stress parameters and the hepatoprotective ...

Draft genome sequence of alcohol-tolerant bacteria Pediococcus acidilactici strain K3

Braz. j. microbiol; 48 (1), 2017
Abstract Pediococcus acidilactici strain K3 is an alcohol-tolerant lactic acid bacterium isolated from nuruk, which is a traditional Korean fermentation starter for makgeolli brewing. Draft genome of this strain was approximately 1,991,399 bp (G+C content, 42.1%) with 1525 protein-coding sequences (CDS),...

Chlorhexidine with or without alcohol against biofilm formation: efficacy, adverse events and taste preference

Abstract In recent years, different chlorhexidine formulations have been tested, including an alcohol-free alternative, but the effect of this solution on early biofilm formation is not clear. A crossover, randomized, double-blind clinical trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of two chlorhexidine s...

Calcium hydroxide associated with a new vehicle: Psidium cattleianum leaf extracts. Tissue response evaluation

Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate edemogenic activity and subcutaneous inflammatory reaction induced by Psidium cattleianum leaf extracts associated with Ca(OH)2. Thirty male Wistar rats, split equally into three groups [aqueous extract + Ca(OH)2; ethanolic extract + Ca(OH)2; and propylene g...
