1. Produção de carotenoides: microrganismos como fonte de pigmentos naturais
Carotenoids are natural dyes synthesized by plants, algae and microorganisms. Application in many sectors can be found, as food dyeing and supplementation, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and animal feed. Recent investigations have shown their ability to reduce the risks for many degenerative diseases like cancer, heart diseases, cataract and macular degeneration

2. Estudo comparativo do estresse oxidativo após facoemulsificação experimental com e sem implante de lentes intra-oculares em cães / Comparative study of the oxidative stress following experimental phacoemulsification with and without intraocular lens implantation in dogs
O tratamento da catarata em cães têm passado por algumas mudanças. A facoemulsificação reduziu o tempo cirúrgico e a necessidade de incisão extensa; o implante de lentes intra-oculares (LIOs) permitiu restabelecer a emetropia após a remoção do cristalino. O processo inflamatório induzido pelas cirurgias intra-oculares leva a um estado de estresse

3. Treatment of experimental lens capsular tears with intense focused ultrasound.
High-intensity focused ultrasound was employed to seal lens capsular tears in a rabbit model. Ultrasound therapy was applied either contiguously, thereby completely covering the tear, or in a discrete exposure pattern around the tear. Both methods prevented the formation of a generalised cataract. This was in contrast to results observed in a group of contro

4. Electron Microscopy of the Suckling Mouse Cataract Agent: a Noncultivable Animal Pathogen Possibly Related to Mycoplasma
The suckling mouse cataract agent (SMCA) is a filtrable (<220 nm), noncultivable agent isolated from ticks in Georgia in 1961. It grows to high titer in the eyes and brains of intracerebrally inoculated mice in which it induces cataract, uveitis, and chronic brain infection. SMCA in high titer may also be recovered from the tissues of embryonated hen eggs in

5. Study of morbidity of personnel with potential exposure to vinclozolin.
OBJECTIVES--To examine internal exposure and targeted health outcomes of employees exposed to 3-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-5-methyl-5-vinyl-1,3-oxazolidine-2,4-dione; chemical abstracts service (CAS) number: 50471-44-8 (vinclozolin). METHODS--A cross sectional study of 67 men exposed to vinclozolin for one to 13 years during synthesis and formulation operations an

6. Laser-phakopuncture in the treatment of soft cataracts.
A new method of treating soft cataracts by laser irradiation is described ("laser-phakopuncture"). Rupture of the lens capsule can be produced by a strong laser pulse focused on the anterior surface of the lens. This is followed by gradual reabsorption of the lens substance (in much the same manner as with a conventional discission procedure). Pigment deposi

7. Calpain Expression and Activity during Lens Fiber Cell Differentiation*S⃞
In animal models, the dysregulated activity of calcium-activated proteases, calpains, contributes directly to cataract formation. However, the physiological role of calpains in the healthy lens is not well defined. In this study, we examined the expression pattern of calpains in the mouse lens. Real time PCR and Western blotting data indicated that calpa

8. Major histocompatibility complex-linked diabetogenic gene of the nonobese diabetic mouse. Analysis of genomic DNA amplified by the polymerase chain reaction.
Inheritance of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) is polygenic, and at least one of the genes conferring susceptibility to diabetes is tightly linked to the MHC. Recent studies have suggested that DQB1 of humans and I-A beta of mice are closely associated with susceptibility and resistance to IDDM. For further characterization and localization of the
