13. Ocular spherulocystosis.
Spherulocystosis (myospherulosis), a rare entity, is characterised by histopathological changes of sac-like refractile structures in soft tissue and presents clinically as an inflammatory lesion. It is caused by trauma or is induced iatrogenically by the topical application of fat based ointments. A case of myospherulosis confined to the region of the lacrim

14. Effect of topical antimicrobial treatment on aerobic bacteria in the stratum corneum of human skin.
The efficacy of antimicrobial agents applied topically to the skin surface in eradicating coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) residing in the stratum corneum underlying the surface was examined. Glabrous skin was sampled with a 26-cm2 contact plate containing Trypticase soy agar. Five antiseptic solutions and four antimicrobial ointments were evaluated. T

15. (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-Deoxyuridine in the treatment of experimental herpes simplex keratitis.
IDU (5-iodo-2'-deoxyuridine), BVDU [(E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine] and placebo ointments were studied for their effects on experimental herpes simplex (type 1) keratoconjuncitivitis in rabbits. When treatment was begun 65 h after virus inoculation, both BVDU and IDU prevented development of keratitis. Both BVDU and IDU were also effective in suppressi

16. Randomised double-blind trial of acyclovir and idoxuridine in dendritic corneal ulceration.
The results of a randomised double-blind clinical trial of 3% acyclovir and 0.5% idoxuridine (IDU) ophthalmic ointments in 60 patients with corneal dendritic ulceration are presented. Ulcers in all 30 patients treated with acyclovir healed compared with 22 (76%) of 29 patients treated with IDU (P < 0.01). Patients treated with acyclovir healed more rapidly (

17. Latent Herpes Simplex Virus Infections in Sensory Ganglia of Mice After Topical Treatment with Adenine Arabinoside and Adenine Arabinoside Monophosphate†
Adenine arabinoside (Ara-A) and Ara-A monosphosphate (Ara-AMP) ointments were able to prevent the fatal outcome of herpes simplex virus (HSV)-induced skin infection of the lumbosacral area in hairless mice. Ara-A and Ara-AMP had no irritating effect on the skin, but in a number of animals a protracted healing time of the skin lesions after the treatment was

18. Treatment of experimental herpes simplex keratitis with acycloguanosine.
Acycloguanosine, a recently developed compound with high inhibitory activity against viruses belonging to the herpes group, has been evaluated in experimental herpes simplex keratitis in rabbits in comparison with trifluorothymidine and preparations of idoxuridine and vidarabine at present in clinical use. All compunds were used in the form of ophthalmic oin

19. Development of topical treatment for cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania major in experimental animals.
Topical treatment, with drug-containing ointments, of cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania major in BALB/c mice was studied. Twenty chemotherapeutic agents having potential or established antileishmanial activity were formulated in different ointment and cream bases. Only 15% paromomycin sulfate with 12% methylbenzethonium chloride, 12% benzethonium

20. Microbial Toxicity of Isopropyl Myristate Used for Sterility Testing of Petrolatum-Based Ophthalmic Ointments
The toxicity of isopropyl myristate (IPM) to microorganisms varies from lot to lot and between manufacturers. The toxicity is not directly proportional to the number and level of IPM homologues present nor to the small quantities of fatty acids, alcohols, aldehydes, or ketones found in both filter- and heat-sterilized IPM. The toxicity of IPM, both filter- a

21. Dequalinium, a topical antimicrobial agent, displays anticarcinoma activity based on selective mitochondrial accumulation.
Positively charged lipophilic compounds, such as rhodamine 123, localize in mitochondria and are selectively accumulated and retained by carcinoma cells. It has been suggested that this phenotype may be exploited for selective killing of carcinoma cells by lipophilic cations. Here we report that doubly positively charged dequalinium, which has been used for

22. Acoustic-resonance spectrometry as a process analytical technology for the quantification of active pharmaceutical ingredient in semi-solids
The purpose of this study was to demonstrate acoustic resonance spectrometry (ARS) as an alternative process analytical technology to near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy for the quantification of active pharmaceutical ingradient (API) in semi-solids such as creams, gels, ointments, and lotions. The ARS used for this research was an inexpensive instrument constr

23. Self-treatment using 0.25%-0.50% podophyllotoxin-ethanol solutions against penile condylomata acuminata: a placebo-controlled comparative study.
OBJECTIVE--To compare the efficacy of 0.50% and 0.25% podophyllotoxin preparations against previously untreated penile warts. DESIGN--The study was performed as a double-blind, placebo-controlled investigation on 57 males randomly allocated to one of three groups of 19 males in each, receiving either the placebo solution (70% ethanolic vehicle) or one of the
