Cross-sectional cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of tau and amyloid (A) beta (β) are of diagnostic importance for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI). However, most longitudinal studies of tau fail to demonstrate progression. Because predominantly brain-derived proteins such as tau, have higher ventricle to lumbar ratios, we hypothesized that adjusting for the ventricular enlargement of AD would correct for the dilution of tau, and improve detection of longitudinal change. Aβ ...

We sought to develop an infection-resistant urinary catheter. We evaluated 3 types of catheters for their efficacy against uropathogens in an in vitro model of the urinary tract. The catheter impregnated with Chlorhexidine and triclosan suppressed the growth of uropathogens, including Proteus mirabilis , for 20-30 days or longer.

Mycotoxins are toxic metabolites produced by several fungi species, with the aflatoxins, fumonisins, zearalenone, trichothecenes and ochratoxin A being the most important found in feedstuffs. The economic impact caused by mycotoxins motivated the investigation of detoxification strategies to reduce its bioavailability by enterosorption. Although there are several types of adsorbents, the efficiency of the adsorption depends on the physical and chemical characteristics of both the adsorbent and the ...

It has been suggested that the invasion of microbes into the catheter tract occurs mainly at the time of catheter insertion. To investigate whether the presence of an antimicrobial environment during the initial period after insertion is sufficient to reduce the risk of subsequent catheter colonization and infection, we evaluated the use of benzalkonium chloride-heparin bonded (BZK-hep) central venous catheters, which exhibit short-lived surface antimicrobial activity, using a rat subcutaneous model. ...
