Evaluation of MENAQUINONE-7 and fat-soluble vitamin production by starter cultures during fermentation in dairy products using RPLC method.

Vitamin K2, also known as menaquinone, has become a significant research focus, particularly in fermented products. This study aims to investigate the content of menaquinone-7 (MK-7), an essential form of vitamin K, and other fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E) during the fermentation of various fermented milk products. The vitamin contents of six fermented milk products were analyzed: two yogurt samples (produced with commercial starter and probiotic starter), two kefir samples (produced with commercial starter and kefir grain), and milk fermented with or .

Evaluation of eye and serum findings in different waters in rabbits by drowning and submersion modeling.

Background/aim: This study investigated serum, vitreous, and anterior chamber fluid electrolyte changes, corneal thickness (CT), corneal volume (CV), anterior chamber volume (ACV), and anterior chamber depth (ACD) as an auxiliary diagnostic method in the identification of drowning in fresh or salt water.

Materials And Methods: The study used 35 healthy, adult, male, white New Zealand rabbits, seperated into five groups (control, saltwater drowning (SWD), saltwater immersion (SWI), freshwater drowning (FWD), freshwater immersion (FWI)). CT, CV, ACV, and ACD measurements were made with Pentacam topography at 0, 2, and 4 h in all groups.

Topical Vancomycin is More Efficient than Povidone-Iodine Treatment in Controlling Bacterial Growth in Methicillin-Resistant Keratitis Model in Rabbits.

To evaluate the efficacy of topical vancomycin and povidone iodine (PI) application on methicillin-resistant (MRSA) keratitis model in rabbits. MRSA keratitis was induced by injecting 0.1 mL MRSA containing 1000 colony-forming units (CFU) into central cornea of right eyes of 24 New Zealand White rabbits.

Evaluation and comparison of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) parameters in normal and moderate myopic individuals.

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCTA) parameters in patients with moderate myopia and healthy individuals retrospectively.

Methods: A total of 80 male individuals aged 18-20 years were included in the study with 40 moderate myopic and 40 healthy persons. All participants underwent detailed ocular examination including refraction, intraocular pressure (IOP), visual acuity, biomicroscopy, OCTA measurement and optic biometry measurement.
