Such devices are useful in the culture of all cell types, but are particularly useful in the culture of cells that are known in the art to be difficult to culture, including cells that lose one or more of their particular attributes/ characteristics (e.g., pluripotentiality), or cells that are difficult to establish cultures of (e.g. primary cells), during culturing in traditional cell culture devices.

  • Intranasal Steroids and the Myth of Mucosal Atrophy: a Systematic Review of Original Histological Assessments
    Intranasal steroids and the myth of mucosal atrophy: A systematic review of original histological assessments Misha M. Verkerk, M.B.B.S.,1 Daman Bhatia, M.B.B.S.,2 Janet Rimmer, F.R.A.C.P.,3 Peter Earls, F.R.C.P.A.,4 Raymond Sacks, M.D.,5 and Richard J. Harvey, M.D.6 ABSTRACT Background: Intranasal corticosteroids (INCSs) are well established in the treatment of allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinosinusitis, and nasal polyposis. Although reversible atrophy of keratinized skin is seen with corticosteroids, the respiratory mucosa is histologically very different and but concerns remain among patients and some health-care professionals over local side effects on nasal respiratory mucosa. A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed of the available evidence for nasal mucosal atrophy as an adverse effect of INCSs in patients with sinonasal disease. Methods: A systematic search of Embase (1974-) and Medline (1946-) databases to September 27, 2013 was performed. Inclusion criteria selected any study where the histopathology of nasal mucosa was assessed in patients with sinonasal disease using intranasally administered corticosteroids with or without a control group. Results: Twenty-three hundred sixty-four publications were retrieved with a subsequent full text review of 149 publications for 34 articles that met the selection criteria. These articles included 11 randomized controlled trials, 5 cohorts, and 20 case series. Duration of treatment varied from 5 days to 5.5 years. “Mucosal atrophy” as an outcome was reported in 17 studies. The definition of “mucosal atrophy” was highly variable with a definition given in only 10 studies.

  • Poison Or Antibiotic? a Guide to "Class" Entries
    Poison or Antibiotic? A Guide to “Class” Entries Preface Most entries in the Poisons List, i.e. the Schedule 10, and the Schedules 1, 2 and 3 to the Pharmacy and Poisons Regulations (Cap. 138A) are in the form of individual drugs and their salts, e.g. “Abacavir; its salts”. However, some entries are in the form of a “class”, e.g. “Barbituric acid; its salts; its derivatives …”. In such cases, it is not always clear which drugs are members of the class (e.g. amobarbital, barbital, pentobarbital, phenobarbital, etc. are poisons, being derivatives of barbituric acid). Likewise, the Antibiotics Ordinance (Cap. 137) applies to the substances specified in Schedule 1 to the Antibiotics Regulations, to their salts and derivatives, and to the salts of such derivatives. Again, it is not always clear which drugs are derivatives of an antibiotic named in the Schedule (e.g. demeclocycline, doxycycline, tigecycline, etc. are antibiotics, being derivatives of “Tetracycline” named in the Schedule). This Guide provides a list of such drugs which are available as registered pharmaceutical products in Hong Kong. Drugs which are not available as registered pharmaceutical products in Hong Kong are also included in this Guide as far as possible. It should be noted that it is not possible to compile a complete list of all these drugs, simply because there is no limit to the number of “derivatives” a parent chemical can have. This Guide should be read in conjunction with the Schedules 1, 2, 3, and 10 to the Pharmacy and Poisons Regulations, and Schedule 1 to the Antibiotics Regulations, if the poison/antibiotic classification of a particular pharmaceutical product is to be determined.
