Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOrlistat Induce Renal Toxicity, DNA Damage, and Apoptosis in Normal and Obese Female RatsHaneen Mushtaq Hameed, Ahmed Flayyih Hasan, Zainab Haytham Razooki et al.Obesity has been linked to several chronic diseases, including fatty liver disease, fatty heart disease, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea, and cancer. The purpose of the current study was to determine how Orlistat affected renal toxicity, DNA damage, and apoptosis that were brought on by obesity in normal and obese female rats. There were four groups made up of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2023 · 5,831 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Different Oral Rehydration Solutions for Diarrheic Dairy CalvesEvangelina Miqueo, Jackeline Thais da Silva, Fernanda Lavínia Moura Silva et al.Regardless of the causative agent, diarrhea results in large loss of water and electrolytes, which leads to reduced performance and mortality. The aim of this study was to evaluate oral rehydration solutions in order to determine the most effective in restoring electrolytes and water while maintaining animal performance. Forty two calves (14 per treatment) were distributed in one of three … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 26 Nov 2018 · 8,385 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Enriching Nitrogen and Phosphorus on the Growth of Sargassum Podacanthum Cultured in Potassium-Fortified Inland Saline WaterHa Thi Thu Bui, Trong Quoc Luu, Ravi FotedarPotassium-fortified inland saline water (K+ISW) has shown potential for growing marine species, including seaweed species. The response of a brown seaweed species, Sargassum podacanthum, to nitrogen and phosphorus enrichments were evaluated by culturing the species for 84 days in K+ISW and comparing it with Ocean Water (OW). The culture media were enriched weekly with ammonium chloride and sodium dihydrogen phosphate, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 6 Apr 2018 · 7,747 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPorosity Analysis in Porous Brass Using Dual ApproachesRyan Yeargin, Rob Ramey, Cindy WatersThe goal of this research is to produce porous samples for various applications such as heat exchangers, filters and radiation shields. The level of porosity is an important objective yet the level of confidence in two main methods (hand calculations and microscopic analysis) is not high. This work will compare porosity values obtained from traditional hand calculations against analysis from … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 25 Feb 2016 · 8,525 accessesView PDF Cite
