摘要:
Some pairs of primers are provided, being used for detection of carbapenemase genes and carbapenemase-producing bacterial strains, and a diagnosis method using said set of primers. Furthermore, there is also disclosed, preferably, the use of probes within each amplification reaction, more preferably multiplex PCR, for selective identification and detection of carbapenemase genes from a biological sample. The primers object of this invention may be used for preparing a kit for carbapenemase genes identification and detection, preferably carbapenemases contained in bacterial strains producing said enzymes.
摘要:
The invention describes a method of predicting the risk of caries in a subject and a kit based on said method, characterized in that the method involves the following steps: (a) determining the concentration in the saliva of the subject of: (i) at least one compound selected from among the components of the saliva of the immune system; (ii) at least one compound selected from among those involved in microbial adhesion to a surface of the buccal cavity; and (iii) at least one compound selected from among the components involved in the metabolism or regulation of pH in the buccal cavity; (b) comparing a response variable calculated on the basis of the at least one of the concentrations determined in (i), at least one of the concentrations determined in (ii), and at least one of the concentrations determined in (iii) in step (a) with a corresponding reference response variable in a population of subjects without caries or in a population of subjects with caries; and (c) determining the risk of caries on the basis of the degree of difference in the response variable compared in step (b), wherein a higher degree of difference between the response variable of the subject and the corresponding reference response variable in a population of subjects without caries or in a population of subjects with caries is indicative of a higher risk of caries in said subject.

摘要:
The present invention relates to the composition containing an enzyme belonging to the group of superoxide dismutases (SOD), or any SOD mimic and the like together with hyaluronic acid and EDTA. Said composition is part of a pharmaceutical formulation which promotes or maintains eye health through the inhibition of cell and tissue damage caused by free radicals, so it is useful for the treatment and/or prevention of eye diseases that occur with oxidative stress, or as an adjunct to other existing current treatments, as well as in post-operative treatments to treat and/or prevent inflammatory or oxidative stress adverse reactions.
