Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of a DNA Vaccine for Immunocontraceptive Potential Against Zona Pellucida Glycoproteins in CattleC.A. Foley, S.M. Boyle, R.E. Pearson, F.C. GwazdauskasHolstein cows were administered zona pellucida (ZP) DNA vaccine and used to determine the potential of recombinant rabbit ZP glycoproteins (rZP) as immunocontraceptive antigens. Zona pellucida proteins were purified and quantified. Cows were assigned to one of four treatment groups in which plasmids encoding rabbit ZP proteins were administered, i.d., using a gene gun (ZP55, n=2; ZP75, n=2; Hep55, n=2; … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 6,888 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUpgrading of Light Dewaxed Oil through Hydrofinishing and Additives Blending for Producing Automatic Transmission FluidGamal Abdel-Nasser Gohar, Mohamed Sherif El-Gayar, Abd El-Moneim Ibrahim et al.Light dewaxed oil was produced through dewaxing process of the light waxy distillate raffinate of crude oil from Western Desert of Egypt using methyl ethyl ketone/toluene mixed solvent. Hydrofinishing process was used to remove the non-hydrocarbon constituents and to improve the physicochemical properties of the produced oils such as color, viscosity index, inhibition responses, oxidation and thermal stability. The operating … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,976 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Role of Competition in Today's Hong Kong The Views of Hong Kong Chinese Adolescents in Comparative PerspectiveDavid WatkinsOpen-ended responses to the question "what kind of role does competition play in Hong Kong today?" were obtained from 257 senior Hong Kong secondary school students aged 16-18 years. Content analysis showed the respondents viewed competition in terms of the areas in which competition was involved, the importance of such competition, and the value of this competition. Their views of … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 8,323 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Postgenomic Era: Transcriptomic as the New Paradigm of LifeBruno Giardina, Marcella Renis, Vito Latora, Salvatore MusumeciNow that complete genome sequences are available for a variety of organism, the elucidation of single gene function involved in the metabolism, includes necessarily a better understanding of the cellular responses on all levels of gene products, mRNA, proteins and metabolites. Such knowledge’s growth is essential since the observable properties of living organisms, so called phenotypes, are the results of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,822 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInterventions and Patterns of Risk in Adolescent HIV/AIDS PreventionRobert M. Malow, Rhonda Rosenberg, Geri Donenberg, Jessy G. DévieuxMid-way through the third decade of experience in preventing HIV/AIDS among adolescents, behavioral interventions and outcomes for high risk subgroups have generated evidence extremely instructive for navigating future priorities in reducing transmission risk behavior. Youth who abuse alcohol or drugs, who are detained or incarcerated, or have mental health co-morbidity such as externalizing disorders, represent the most significant challenge to … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,281 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLoss of Morphine-induced Suppression of NK Cell activity and T-cell Functions in µ-Opioid Receptor Knockout MiceRichard J. Weber, Ricardo Gomez-Flores, Ichiro Sora, George R. UhlIn vivo administration of µ-opioid receptor selective agonists to various species is known to suppress lymphocyte, NK cell, and macrophage functions, in addition to mediate pain relief and euphoria. Using a mouse model in which the µ-opioid receptor gene was disrupted by targeted homologous recombination, we explored the involvement of this receptor in natural killer (NK) cell activity and T … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,937 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Over-Voltages Produced by Lightning Strokes in the Power Transmission System in the Southern Region of Saudi ArabiaA. U. Al-Abdulaziz, S. M. Bashi, A. A. AlthubaitiThis study deals with the simulation of lightning strokes and their effects on power network in the southern region of Saudi Arabia. The network consists of main generating stations, substations and the power transmission lines. The transient performance of the system has been investigated using the EMTP (Electro Magnetic Transient Program). Some surges were introduced to the network as in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCiprofloxacin Does Not Exert Nephrotoxicity in RatsAsli Baykal, Figen Sarigül, G Süleymanlar et al.Ciprofloxacin, a member of the fluoroquinolone class, is an antibiotic used as a treatment for infections including the Anthrax bacteria. Studies concerning the safety and efficacy of ciprofloxacin have been controversial with respect to nephrotoxicity. Using rats orally treated with ciprofloxacin (400mg/kg/d), the effects of this drug were analyzed measuring several indications of nephrotoxicity: β-NAG, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, and … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,440 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractElectrochemical Characteristics of Some Purpurins in Aqueous and Nonaqueous SolutionsFarouk A. Rashwan, Hossnia S. Mohran, Ahmed A. El-SamahyThe Electrochemical Impedance Technique (EIS) and the Cyclic Voltammetric method (CV) were used to investigate the behavior of purpurin (P), Anthrapurpurin (AP) and Benzopurpurin (BP) in aqueous and in N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF) media. In the CV experiments, both the radical and the dianion of these substances were assumed to form of limited stability due to chemical protonation. In case of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2005 · 6,743 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of UV-C on Drought Tolerance of Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) CallusAli Akbar Ehsanpour, Roya RazavizadehWater stress and unfavorable climate decrease the growth and development of plant globally. Medicago is a valuable plant as a source of food for animal, foliage and for medicine. Since, Iran is located in a dry area; consequently, the study of plant responses to water stress is important. In this research UV-C radiation was used to induce physiological and genetic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,805 accessesView PDFCite
