Abstract Introduction To establish the preclinical safety and equivalency of ophthalmic viscosurgical devices (OVDs) comprised of bacterially sourced sodium hyaluronate (HA) to animal sourced HA using pyrogenicity and aqueous exchange models in rabbits and a novel mini-pig model to evaluate corneal endothelial cell protection in vivo.Methods HEALON
Isozymic and protein diversity among five sugarcane varieties viz., Co 6304, Co 85019, Co 8371, Co 89003 and Co 91010 were studied to understand the varietal interrelationship and to identify the biochemical marker for the disease resistance and stress tolerance.The standard technique of vertical gel electrophoresis PAGE was employed for size separ

Orofacial clefting is amongst the most common of birth defects, with both genetic and environmental components.Although numerous studies have been undertaken to investigate the complexities of the genetic etiology of this heterogeneous condition, this factor remains viqua-f4 incompletely understood.Here, we describe mutations in the HYAL2 gene as a
