Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of Naturally Modified Mineral Water Protection Activity Against Experimental InfectionsEdward Vladimir Krizhanovsky, Kwong Choong LimAn estimation of protective efficiency of naturally modified mineral water (BAE Synergy Liquid preparation) was performed on animals in models of flue and anthrax infections. The preparation exhibited a significant effect as a preventive and therapeutic agent at these infections. …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,877 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparative Assessment of Hydroponically Grown Cereal Crops for the Purification of Aquaculture Wastewater and the Production of Fish FeedA. M. Snow, A. E. Ghaly, A. SnowHydroponically grown wheat, barley and oats were examined for their ability to remove nutrients from aquaculture wastewater. Wheat, barley and oats seeds were germinated in water in a hydroponics system. The seedlings then received wastewater from an aquaculture system stocked with Arctic charr. During the experiment, the crops grew rapidly and fairly uniformly and showed no signs of mineral deficiency … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 9,174 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Helium-Neon Laser Photostimulation on Excision Wound Healing in Wistar RatsB. S. Nayak, A. Maiya, P. KumarThe importance of laser photostimulation is now accepted generally but the laser light facilitates wound healing and tissue repair remains poorly understood. So we have examined the hypothesis that the laser photo stimulation can enhances the collagen production in excision wounds using excision wound model in Wister rat model. The circular wounds were created on the dorsum of the back … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,379 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSubacute Toxicity of Crocus Sativus L. (Saffron) Stigma Ethanolic Extract in RatsDaryoush Mohajeri, Ghafour Mousavi, Mehran Mesgari et al.The medicinal properties attributed to Crocus sativus L. (saffron) are extensive. The safety of saffron is important in relation to its medicinal applications. This study was performed to elucidate the possible toxic effects of ethanolic extract of Crocus sativus L. stigma on liver, kidney and some hematological parameters in rats. Wistar rats were randomly assigned into four groups of eight … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 8,565 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnti-Diabetic Activity of a Fraction from Cissus verticillata and Tyramine, its Main Bioactive Constituent, in Alloxan-Induced Diabetic RatsCleide de Sousa Lino, Thiago de P. Sales, Patrícia B. Gomes et al.Cissus verticillata (syn. C. sycioides, fam. Vitaceae) is a medicinal plant popularly used in Brazil, for the treatment of diabetes mellitus. The anti-diabetic activity of a fraction from leaves of Cissus verticilllata (MSF, methanol soluble fraction), as well as that of tyramine (TYR) were investigated, in the model of alloxan-induced diabetes, in male Wistar rats. The biochemical parameters studied were: … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 8,628 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunodeficient Parameters in the HIV-1 Transgenic Rat ModelSulie L. Chang, Frank Ocasio, Jose A. BeltranRecently an HIV-1 transgenic (HIV-1Tg) rat model was created that carries a gag-pol-deleted HIV-1 genome under the control of the HIV-1 viral promoter. However, other viral proteins are expressed in most organs and tissues, and are found in the circulating blood. Since HIV-1 targets the immune system in humans, we examined two immunological parameters, leukocyte-endothelial adhesion (LEA) and inflammatory cytokine … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,839 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Dietary Yeasts Enriched with Cu, Fe and Mn on Digestibility of Main Nutrients and Absorption of Minerals by Growing PigsDaniel Korniewicz, Zbigniew Dobrzanski, Katarzyna Chojnacka et al.Yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae containing in 1 kg of dry product, separately 32.0 g Fe (Y-Fe), 23.0 g Cu (Y-Cu), 35.4 g Mn (Y-Mn), were used as the source of these microelements in complete diet for growing pigs. If considering livestock requirements, feed supplementation with this organic form of microelements, covered animals’ requirements in: Fe-27%, Cu-75%, Mn-30%. ZnO was the source … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,710 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Low-Temperature Technology of Producing Calcium Feed Phosphate with MicroelementsJózef HoffmannThe possibility of producing feed calcium phosphates in a way ensuring a low physical water content in the product was investigated in laboratory conditions. For this purpose the process use of a phosphoric acid solution with a higher (than in conventional methods) P2O5 content (53-63% by wt. P2O5) with CaO (molar fraction of 0.5-0.8) and CaCO3 in the phosphoric acid … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,743 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Nutritive Value of Wastewater Grown Barley and its Utilization in Fish FeedA.M. Snow, A. E. GhalyThe feasibility of using wastewater grown barley plants as a component of fish feed was evaluated. The barley plants were grown in a hydroponics system on wastewater from a recirculating aquaculture facility. The effects of wastewater application rate on plant growth and pollution potential reduction were investigated. At the end of the experiment, the average crop heights and yields were … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,880 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Canadian Regulations and Remediation Methods for Diesel Oil Contaminated SoilsD. G. Rushton, A E. Ghaly, K. MartinellDiesel fuel released into the environment can contaminate ground water, degrade potable water supplies and cause the collapse of fisheries.
