Experiences in Animal-Assisted Interventions (AAI)
Published in Lori R. Kogan, Phyllis Erdman, Career Paths in Human-Animal Interaction for Social and Behavioral Scientists, 2021
It has been extremely rewarding to learn about the ways in which AAI has positively impacted individuals (specifically, individuals who struggled with eating disorders) when other forms of treatments/treatment providers had been ineffective. Through my research and supported by theories of attachment/affect regulation, AAI may provide opportunities for individuals with eating disorders to experience healing. One participant in my research said about AAT, “it’s almost like Neosporin on the wound. It’s just like healing it.”
A-Z of Standardisation, Pre-Clinical, Clinical and Toxicological Data

Wound-healing: Topical application of Jatyadi Taila on excision wounds caused significantly faster reduction in wound area as compared to the application of Neosporin and untreated control wounds. Animals treated with Jatyadi Taila showed significant increase in protein, hydroxyproline and hexosamine content in the granulation tissue when compared with the untreated controls. Wound healing potential of Jatyadi Taila was found to be dose dependant (Shailajan et al. 2011).

Tail bleeds were conducted at 9:30–10:00 AM for each group during the active phase of light cycle immediately after the last alcohol SA session. An incision of 1 mm was made at the tip of the rat’s tail with a sterile scalpel blade. The tip of the tail was then milked gently, and a small volume of blood (less than 0.5 mL) was collected into 1.5 mL Eppendorf tubes and placed on ice. The incision was then treated with topical analgesic ointment (Neosporin®). The blood samples were centrifuged for 15 min at 5,000× g at 4°C, and the plasma was isolated and transferred into separate Eppendorf tubes. Plasma samples were then stored at −80°C until assayed on the Luminex xMAP® system. Biomarker analyses were conducted using commercially available Milliplex kits purchased from EMD Millipore (Bellerica, MA, USA) specific for leptin, corticosterone, and IL-1β. The plates were analyzed on a MAGPIX® system with xPONENT® software. The MAGPIX® system was calibrated before the analysis of each assay using a calibration and performance verification kit (Luminex Corporation, Austin, TX, USA).

Several antibiotics, particularly neomycin and polymyxin-B, have been commonly used in Acanthamoeba keratitis management. Neomycin is a broad-spectrum aminoglycoside antibiotic that binds the ribosomal subunit to inhibit translation and protein synthesis [16]. Polymyxin-B binds and disrupts microbial cell membranes [32]. Neomycin, polymyxin-B, and bacitracin are also combined to form the triple antibiotic (Neosporin), which is in common ophthalmic use [43,112].
