Acrylamide Polymerization — a Practical Approach
electrophoresis tech note 1156 Acrylamide Polymerization — A Practical Approach Paul Menter, Bio-Rad Laboratories, 2000 Alfred Nobel Drive, Polyacrylamide Gel Polymerization Hercules, CA 94547 USA AcrylamideBis Polyacrylamide Introduction The unparalleled resolution and flexibility possible with CH2 CH + CH2 CH CH2 CH CH2 CH CH2 CH polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) has led to its CO CO CO CO CO widespread use for the separation of proteins and nucleic NH2 NH NH2 NH2 NH acids. Gel porosity can be varied over a wide range to meet CH2 CH2 specific separation requirements. Electrophoresis gels and NH NH NH NH buffers can be chosen to provide separation on the basis of CO 2 2 CO CO C O charge, size, or a combination of charge and size. CH2 CH CH2 CH CH2 CH CH2 CH The key to mastering this powerful technique lies in the polymerization process itself.

Sucralfate Enemas
Sucralfate Enemas Sucralfate enemas are used to treat inflammation of the rectum (the lower part of the large intestine leading to the anus); most commonly this is for radiation proctitis; bowel inflammation following radiotherapy. This treatment can help treat bleeding due to the inflammation, and can be continued for up to 24 weeks; you can stop when the bleeding stops. This fact sheet explains how you can administer the enema yourself, using a syringe and catheter. The hospital or community pharmacy can provide the Sucralfate enema, and you will need to ask your GP or practise nurse to supply the equipment you will need. Your practise nurse can help you practice preparing the enema, and could help you with administering it at home, if you find this difficult. 1. Using the syringe provided, draw up 10mls of the Sucralfate Suspension (2g) and then draw up 10mls of warm water and mix. Ensure that any excess air is expelled from the syringe. 2. Attach the catheter provided to the syringe tip and lubricate the end of the catheter with lubricating gel provided. 3. Lie on your left side with both knees bent. This position will help the flow of liquid in to the rectum and aid enema retention. 4. Position a towel underneath yourself to catch any leakage of fluid once the enema has been administered. 5. With a steady pressure, gently insert the catheter to a depth of approximately 10cm into the rectum. 6. Press down on the barrel of the syringe slowly, using a steady and even pressure, until the entire contents of the syringe have been administered. -

Injection of Stabilized Hyaluronic Acid-Based Gel of Non-Animal Origin for the Correction of Nasolabial Folds: Comparison with and Without Lidocaine
Injection of Stabilized Hyaluronic Acid-Based Gel of Non-Animal Origin for the Correction of Nasolabial Folds: Comparison with and without Lidocaine à y à z PER HEDE´ N,PHD, DAN FAGRELL, MD, JAN JERNBECK, MD, RICHARD RYLANDER, MD, à z z ULF SAMUELSON,PHD, GABRIELLA SELLMAN, MD, AND BIRGIT STARK,PHD BACKGROUND The use of injectable hyaluronic acid–based gel of non-animal origin, manufactured using the patented NASHA technology, is well established in aesthetic facial procedures. OBJECTIVE To compare injection pain, dermal filler efficacy, and safety of NASHA-based gel with or without 0.3% lidocaine hydrochloride when administered to the nasolabial fold (NLF). METHODS Forty-three subjects seeking correction of NLFs, with moderate or severe wrinkle severity, were recruited for this split-face, double-blind, comparative study. NASHA-based gel, with or without lidocaine hydrochloride, was injected into the deep layer of the dermis and/or subcutis, of the NLF. Pain, efficacy, and safety assessments included a treatment preference question, a 100-mm visual analogue scale for pain, the Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale, and adverse event reporting. RESULTS Ninety percent of subjects (lower 95% confidence limit=76%) rated injection of NASHA- based gel with lidocaine as less painful than NASHA-based gel alone. Subjects and physicians reported no significant differences in dermal filler efficacy between the two treatments during the 12-month follow-up period. The safety profile was similar for both products. CONCLUSION NASHA-based gel with lidocaine provides a more comfortable treatment experience than NASHA-based gel alone, with equivalent efficacy and safety observed after 12 months of follow-up. -
