Methods for Isolating the Balbiani Body/Germplasm from Xenopus laevis Oocytes.
Methods Mol Biol
June 2019
Department of Cell Biology, Miller School of Medicine, University of Miami, Miami, FL, USA.
Article Synopsis
- The Balbiani body (Bb) is a significant organelle found in many vertebrate female gametes, characterized by its dense packing of mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, proteins, and RNA.
- The Bb plays a crucial role during oogenesis in frogs by acting as a maternal factor that determines germline identity through the production of germplasm.
- The study outlines two techniques for isolating the Bb and germplasm from primary oocytes of the frog species Xenopus laevis.
Effect of calcium hydroxide pastes on uninstrumented canal wall studied with scanning electron microscopy.
Acta Odontol Latinoam
July 2012
Department of Endodontics, School of Dentistry, Tucuman National University, Argentina.
Article Synopsis
- Calcium hydroxide (Calpha(OH)2) paste has been used historically as a root canal dressing to aid in the healing of dental tissues.
- A study was conducted using 21 extracted teeth to assess the dissolving effectiveness of calcium hydroxide paste mixed with different vehicles by examining the uninstrumented canal walls under a scanning electron microscope (SEM).
- Results indicated that pastes mixed with saline, chlorhexidine, and propylene glycol showed significantly better cleaning of canal walls, while other mixtures left more organic material behind.
Abundance patterns of Anopheles pseudopunctipennis and Anopheles argyritarsis in northwestern Argentina.

"Dr. Abraham Willink" Higher Entomology Institute, Tucumán National University, Argentina.
Anopheles pseudopunctipennis is an important malaria vector in Argentina but the role of Anopheles argyritarsis in the transmission of the parasite is still unknown. Abundance patterns of both species and their relationship to climatic variables were studied in the subtropical mountainous forest in northwestern Argentina. Adults were collected with CDC light traps from September 2002 to November 2005 in Salta (northern area) and Tucumán (southern area) provinces, from 3 localities in each province.

Acta Odontol Latinoam

Microbiology and Parasitology Departament, Faculty of Odontology, Tucuman National University, Tucumán, Argentina.
The use of a single culture medium that allows the isolation and counts of both Streptococcus mutans and lactobacilli could be of great value in microbiological diagnosis, control and evaluation of prevention programs that are nowadays employed in Odontology. To date there is no method that allows the simultaneous counts of lactobacilli and S. mutans in oral samples using a single culture medium.
