Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermining the Time Required to Detect Induced Sow Lameness Using an Embedded Microcomputer-Based Force Plate SystemBrady McNeil, Julia Calderón Díaz, Caitlyn Bruns et al.Lameness in swine breeding herds is a common cause of compromised animal well-being and economic loss to pig producers. Current lameness assessment methods are subjective and require intensive training. It has been shown that embedded microcomputer-based force plate systems can detect lameness by measuring weight distributions in livestock. The objective of this study was to determine the minimum time required … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 25 May 2018 · 7,616 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAMELIORATIVE EFFECT OF HIBISCUS SABDARIFFA LINN ON SUBCHRONIC CHLORPYRIFOS-INDUCED ALTERATIONS IN SEX AND THYROID HORMONES IN MALE WISTAR RATSShittu Muftau, Olatunji Omobolanle Aisha, Suleiman Folorunsho Ambali et al.Studies have shown that Chlorpyrifos (CPF), an Organophosphate (OP) insecticide alters both sex and thyroid hormones. Apart from inhibiting Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity, CPF has been shown to cause oxidative stress. The antioxidant potentials of many flavonoid-containing plants are increasingly being exploited in the therapy of many infectious and non-infectious diseases. Hibiscus Sabdariffa (HS) is one of the most widely used … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 20 Feb 2014 · 9,102 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLANGMUIR-BLODGETT NANOTEMPLATE CRYSTALLIZATION COMBINED TO LASER-MICROFRAGMENTATION UNIQUELY CHARACTERIZE PROTEINS CRYSTALS BY SYNCHROTRON MICRODIFFRACTIONClaudio Nicolini, Luca Belmonte, Christian Riekel et al.Laser-induced microfragmentation of LB nanotemplate-induced protein crystals in glycerol solution results in distinct, coherently diffracting domains. Only crystals produced according to the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) nanotemplate technique reveal in all four proteins being tested (lysozyme, insulin, thaumatin and ribonuclease) domains highly radiation resistant, while the crystals produced by the standard hanging drop crystallization method do not. Actually the very same laser … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 11 Feb 2014 · 7,989 accessesView PDF Cite
