Objective: To investigate the optimal condition for in vitro cultivation of Trichomonas vaginalis for obtaining a better harvest of T. vaginalis.
Methods: An isolate of T. vaginalis from clinical specimens was cultivated in three different media with initial inoculation of 9.0 x 10(4)/ml under pH 5.6.
Results: There was distinct difference after 96 h incubation in the cumulative harvest of T. vaginalis. The highest harvest was received in cysteine/liver/peptone/maltose medium, followed by the liver/peptone/maltose medium and soybean/liver/peptone/maltose medium.
Conclusion: The cysteine/liver/peptone/maltose medium may be a suitable environment for in vitro multiplication of T. vaginalis.

Creation and long-term in vitro maintenance of valuable genotype collection is one of the modern approach to conservation of valuable gene pool of woody plants. However, during prolonged cultivation, genetic variability of cells and tissues may accumulate and lead to the loss of valuable characteristics of parental plants. It is therefore important to assess the genetic (including cytogenetic) stability of collection clones.

Introduction: Breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) is an efflux membrane transporter that controls the pharmacokinetics of a large number of drugs. Its activity may change when taking some endo- and exogenous substances, thus making it a link in drug interactions.
Aim: The aim of the study was to develop a methodology for testing drugs for belonging to BCRP substrates and inhibitors in vitro.

Soil bacteria are prolific producers of a myriad of biologically active secondary metabolites. These natural products play key roles in modern society, finding use as anti-cancer agents, as food additives, and as alternatives to chemical pesticides. As for their original role in interbacterial communication, secondary metabolites have been extensively studied under in vitro conditions, revealing many roles including antagonism, effects on motility, niche colonization, signaling, and cellular differentiation.

Engineered modifications of nanomaterials inspired by nature hold great promise for disease-specific imaging and therapies. However, conventional polyethylene glycol modification is limited by immune system rejection. The manipulation of gold nanorods (Au NRs) modified by endogenous proteins (eP@Au) is reported as an engineered biomodulator for enhanced breast tumor therapy.

Eggshell membrane (ESM) is a rich source of bioactive compounds, including proteins, peptides, and antioxidants, contributing to its potential therapeutic benefits. These natural antioxidants might help neutralize reactive oxygen species (ROS) and modulate inflammatory responses, which are often linked with chondrocyte damage in osteoarthritis. In this study, we investigated the functional effects of ESM proteins on HO-induced oxidative stress in a neonatal canine chondrocytes.
