Validation of on-slide immunocytochemistry controls prepared from long-term preserved prefixed cell suspensions. [PDF]
Abstract Background On‐slide controls are essential for quality assurance in immunocytochemistry, yet their use in non–cell block cytology preparations remains a significant challenge. This study presents and evaluates a novel method for preparing on‐slide controls from long‐term prefixed cell suspensions, applicable to all types of cytology ...

Effect of Nd:YAG Laser with/without Graphite Coating on Bonding of Lithium Disilicate Glass-Ceramic to Human Dentin. [PDF]
This study evaluated the effect of different surface treatments on the tensile bond strength between lithium disilicate glass‐ceramics, resin cement, and dentin. Fifty truncated cone‐shape glass‐ceramics were divided into five groups (n = 10): G1, control: 10% hydrofluoric acid (HF); G2, Nd:YAG laser + silane; G3, Sil + Nd:YAG laser; G4, graphite + Nd ...

Targeting TNBC: core-shell polycationic polyurea dendrimers with inherent anticancer activity. [PDF]
Core–shell polycationic PURE dendrimers were tested in TNBC‐derived tumor models. Both formulations selectively targeted TNBC and effectively reduced tumor volume. PUREG4‐OEI48 suppressed tumor growth without detectable toxicity, whereas PUREG4‐OCEI24, despite showing efficacy, induced hepatic toxicity.

Lyophilization stabilizes clinical-stage core-crosslinked polymeric micelles to overcome cold chain supply challenges. [PDF]
We provide a systematically optimized freeze‐drying protocol for clinical‐stage docetaxel‐entrapped core‐crosslinked polymeric micelles (CPC634) identifying trehalose as the most suitable cryoprotectant. Our data, validated in an academic as well as industrial setting, demonstrate the feasibility of lyophilizing core‐crosslinked polymeric micelles ...

Comparative Analysis of the Behavior of Llamas Housed in a Research Facility in Response to Different Environmental Enrichment Stimuli. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Environmental enrichment (EE) is essential for promoting welfare and reducing atypical behaviors in captive research animals, but we know little about effective EE strategies for llamas (Lama glama). This study evaluated the behavioral responses to EE items provided to llamas housed in a biomedical research facility in Brazil, where they are ...
