ON THE DESIRABILITY AND EFFICACY OF CHEMICAL “STERILIZATION” OF HYDROPHILIC CONTACT LENSES* [PDF]

The Australian Journal of Optometry, 1971
: A reappraisal of the value and the aims of contact lens “sterilisation” was undertaken with a view to defining the role of hydrophilic lens storage solutions. The efficacy of four types of hydrophilic soaking solutions and one conventional (hard) contact lens soaking solution were tested in an experimental situation against pseudomonas aeruginosa and

Protein‐Like Polymers Targeting Keap1/Nrf2 as Therapeutics for Myocardial Infarction

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We describe a Keap1 targeting protein‐like polymer (PLP) which activates Nrf2, an important cytoprotective transcription factor for relieving myocardial infarction‐induced oxidative stress. This PLP increases cell survival in vitro in multiple relevant cardiac cell types and elicits pro‐reparative responses, improving cardiac function in a preclinical ...
