The “Central Sterile Supply Department” (CSSD), is the hospital department responsible for the obtaining, cleaning, disinfection, and sterilization of all reusable instruments, utensils, and other objects that have been involved in diagnosis and treatment. CSSD nurses work in a special environment, ...
Careful cleansing of the insertion site, sterile technique during insertion, periodic changing of tubing and catheter, and firmly anchoring the catheter to prevent movement and irritation are all essential for the prevention of sepsis.Formation of a clot at the tip of the catheter is indicated if ...
Our aims here are two-fold. The first is to assess how our permafrost sedaDNA dataset can be used to assess the plausibility of two competing explanatory models of Beringian extinctions. These are the bottom-up “shrub/peatland expansion” model of Guthrie16and Mann et al.28,29,30, and t...
Despite high prevalence of anxiety accompanying with chronic pain, the mechanisms underlying pain-related anxiety are largely unknown. With its well-documented role in pain and emotion processing, the amygdala may act as a key player in pathogenesis of n
1, 33, 42 The solution should be prepared under sterile conditions, preferably in pharmacy settings.1, 33 Before using the CVC or replacing the lock solution, the catheter should be aspirated and a volume equivalent to the administered lock volume removed.1, 42 Until the infected lumen is ...
Interpretations of Late Pleistocene hominin adaptative capacities by archaeologists have focused heavily on their exploitation of certain prey and documented contemporary behaviours for these species. However, we cannot assume that animal prey-taxa ecolo

The yeast library was cultivated overnight in 20 mL of SD-2 × SCAA medium and washed once with sterile distilled water. Ten OD600 of cells were resuspended in 5 mL of SD-2 × SCAA medium and ultra-sonicated for 4 × 10 s at 10% of amplitude (Branson Ultrasonics) to separate cell ...
Mel (20 mg/kg; approximately 8 mg, M5250; Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) was dissolved in 20 µL of ethanol, followed by the addition of 1 mL of sterile saline to prepare a solution used for intraperitoneal injection (final ethanol concentration: 2%). The control mice received ...
