Micropropagation of Maerua oblongifolia: A rare ornamental from semi arid regions of Rajasthan, India
A method for in vitro regeneration of Maerua oblongifolia (Capparaceae) from nodal shoot explants is outlined. Percent shoot response with multiplication rate (21.1± 2.33) shoots per explant (30 mm length) was achieved when cultured on semisolid Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing 3% sucrose and supplemented with 2.0 mgl-1 of (Benzylaminopurine) BAP + additives (25.0 mgl-1adenine...

Ultrasonic analyses algorithm on an ex vivo produced oral mucosal equivalent
This study examines the use of high-resolution ultrasound with an analyses algorithm to accurately monitor development of an ex vivo produced oral mucosal equivalent (EVPOME). We used ultrasonic profilometry to examine EVPOME development as seeded cells on its surface proliferate. As these engineered structures develop, seeded cells stratify from their differentiation and produce a keratinized protective upper...
