## Abstract The challenges of measuring optical properties of human tissues include the thickness of the sample, homogenization, or crystallization from freezing of the tissue. This investigation demonstrates a method to avoid these problems by growing optically thin samples of human keratinocytes
The biological action of retinoids has been assayed using the differentiated properties of cultured human conjunctival keratinocytes. The effects measured were the suppression of envelope cross-linking and the promotion of synthesis of a keratin of molecular weight 40,000. Among the retinoids tested
## Background: Prostasomes are prostate-derived organelles in semen exhibiting pluripotent properties. the present study deals with their possible antibacterial effects. ## Methods: Antibacterial activity was assessed by growth inhibition of bacteria in an incubation medium containing prostasomes
