| does contact solution kill bacteria: Natural Alternatives to Antibiotics – Revised and Updated John McKenna, 2003-05-08 'A long-awaited book that answers many questions.' Jan de Vries Antibiotics were developed in the 1940s. Then, they were hailed as a huge breakthrough in the treatment of bacterial infections. Today, they are the most commonly prescribed drugs worldwide. But massive over-prescription of antibiotics has created its own problems. The advent of antibiotic-resistant organisms – or 'superbugs' – has led more and more people to demand alternatives. Natural Alternatives to Antibiotics is a revised and updated version of Dr John McKenna's international bestseller Alternatives to Antibiotics. First published in 1996 and translated into 16 languages, Alternatives to Antibiotics explains in simple, jargon-free language the variety of alternatives to antibiotics in treating infections. Dr McKenna compares conventional medicine and alternative medical approaches, highlighting the benefits and drawbacks of both. In Natural Alternatives to Antibiotics, Dr McKenna looks at the various strains of infections which have become resistant since his international bestseller Alternatives to Antibiotics was published. Dr McKenna has expanded his sections on alternative, herbal, homeopathic and nutritional medicines, and shows directly that it is still possible to treat infections without antibiotics while still acknowledging the times that they may be necessary. Natural Alternatives to Antibiotics: Table of Contents Introduction - The History of Antibiotics - Bacterial Resistance to Antibiotics - The Use and Abuse of Antibiotics - Conventional and Alternative Medical Approaches - Childhood Infections - Herbal Medicine - Homeopathic Medicine - Nutritional Medicine - Nutritional Supplements - The Role of Stress Conclusion |

| does contact solution kill bacteria: Pest Control: Operations and Systems Analysis in Fruit Fly Management Marc Mangel, James R. Carey, Richard E. Plant, 2013-06-29 These are the proceedings of an Advanced Research Workshop (ARW), sponsored by the NATO Science Panel, entitled Pest Control: Operations and Systems Analysis in Fruit Fly Management. The ARW was held in Bad Windsheim, Germany during the week of 5 August 1985. The purpose of the ARW was to bring together scientists who are interested in fruit fly problems, but who usually do not have an opportunity to speak with each other, for an intense week of interdisciplinary collaboration. In particular, the group present at the ARW contained a mix of biologists, field ecologists, mathematical modellers, operational program managers, economists and social scientists. Each group has its own professional meetings at which fruit fly problems are discussed, but the point of the ARW was to learn about the problem from the perspective of other fields, which are equally important for the ultimate management of the fruit fly problems. (A list of attendees follows this preface. ) It appears that the ARW successfully met its objective of bringing together a group for interdisciplinary considerations of the problems; I hope that the proceedings do as well. The ARW was structured with formal lectures in the mornings and workshops in the afternoons. For the morning lectures, four different topics were chosen: 1) basic biology and ecology, 2) trapping and detection, 3) control and eradication, and 4) policy issues. Each morning, one lecture from each area was presented. |

| does contact solution kill bacteria: Functional Biomaterials Design, Synthesis and Applications Manjie Zhang, Wenliang Wang, Xiangjun Chen, Oommen Podiyan Oommen , Yun Chang, 2024-08-21 Early diagnosis of cancer is still a major challenge in cancer therapy. In recent years, the development of multifunctional nanomaterials has provided a new diagnosis and treatment platform to combat cancer. Polymer-inorganic nanomaterials with novel structures such as bowl-shaped/Janus/core-shell have drawn much attention owing to their diversity in composition or asymmetry in structure. More importantly, imparting unique optical, electrical, and magnetic properties to these nanocomposites can further extend their function repertoire. However, to fulfill this vision, fundamental understandings regarding strategies of precise synthesis, mechanisms of structure formation, in vivo synergistic effects in bioapplications, and biosafety of these materials are needed. Besides, nanomaterials with novel structures are well positioned for imaging-guided cancer theranostic. On one hand, nanomaterials themselves are suitable for imaging because of their intrinsic properties such as fluorescent or magnetic properties. On the other hand, nanomaterials can serve as functional platforms that integrate various therapeutic modalities including photothermal therapy, chemodynamic/ion-interference therapy, photodynamic therapy, and cuproptosis to efficiently kill cancer cells. This Research Topic aims at collecting works about synthesis, and biomedical applications of polymer/mesoporous inorganic nanomaterials, especially in the aspect of novel synthetic approaches for fabricating nanomaterials with unique structures. Additionally, we hope that in-depth research articles on this topic can provide insights into the mechanism of nanomaterials acting in cancer diagnosis and therapy. These include the mechanisms of customized drug load/release and synergistic effects in theranostics of these materials. Meanwhile, elucidations of key proteins’ roles in cancer development are also anticipated. Lastly, we hope that this topic can brew new ideas for the adaption of nanomaterials as platforms that allow for multimodal therapeutic modalities. The current Research Topic centers on the design, precise synthesis, and biomedical applications of nanomaterials. It aims to cover novel and promising research trends in nanomaterials with different morphology for cancer theranostics. Manuscripts from the following aspects, but not limited to, are welcomed: • Tailoring of asymmetrically structured (bowl-shaped, Janus, Yin Yang-like) polymer-inorganic nanomaterials; • Inorganic functional nanocrystals and functionalized mesoporous nanomaterials; • Design and synthesis of functional biomaterials, including lipids, polymers, and 2D materials • Non-viral DNA/mRNA delivery or drug/molecular inhibitor delivery; • Synthesizing biomaterials with novel nanostructures such as bowl-shaped, core-shell, spherical, Janus, and quantum dots; • Conquering drug resistance issues, tumor metastasis, and recurrence, as well as designing combination nanomedicines; • Dissecting the role of menin in prostate cancer and breast cancer: crosstalk between menin and AR signaling; • Multi-stimulus-responsive drug release and biological molecules. |
