Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhanced Survival and Nodule Occupancy of Pigeon pea Nodulating Rhizobium sp. ST1 expressing fegA Gene of Bradyrhizobium japonicum 61A152Falguni R. Joshi, Dhwani K. Desai, G. Archana, Anjana J. DesaiProblem statement: Rhizobial isolates belonging to genera (Rhizobium sp. and Mesorhizobium sp.) in our laboratory produced only catecholate type of siderophores. Although FhuA and FegA (ferrichrome receptors) homologs were found to be present in the sequenced genomes of few rhizobia (e.g., 1 in R. etli and 2 in Mesorhizobium sp. BNC1), laboratory isolates of the corresponding genera failed to utilize … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,865 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntrinsically Unstructured Proteins: Potential Targets for Drug DiscoveryPathan Salma, Chintan Chhatbar, Sriram SeshadriProblem statement: The function of a protein is dependent on its three-dimensional structure. However, numerous proteins lacking intrinsic globular 3D structure under physiological conditions had been recognized. These proteins are frequently involved in some of the most critical cellular control mechanisms and it appears that their rapid turnover, aided by their unstructured nature in the unbound state, provides a level … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,578 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Review: Microbiological, Physicochemical and Health Impact of High Level of Biogenic Amines in Fish SauceMuhammad Zukhrufuz Zaman, A. S. Abdulamir, Fatimah Abu Bakar et al.Problem statement: Biogenic amines are basic nitrogenous compounds present in a wide variety of foods and beverages. Their formations were mainly due to the amino acids decarboxylase activity of certain microorganisms. Excessive intake of biogenic amines could induce many undesirable physiological effects determined by their psychoactive and vasoactive action. Fish sauce which is considered as a good source of dietary … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,915 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Betaine Supplementation to Methionine Deficient Diet on Growth Performance and Carcass Characteristics of BroilersH. Sun, W.R. Yang, Z.B. Yang et al.Problem Statement: The efficacy of Methionine (Met) sparing effect of Betaine (BET) has been shown to be associated with dietary compositions, animal physiological stage and living conditions. This study was to determine the extent to which dietary Met could be replaced by BET in broiler chickens under the feeding conditions specific to Chinese poultry industry.Approach: A total of 900 day-old … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 14,155 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAbdominal and Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm ModelingMona Abdolrazaghi, Mehdi NavidBakhsh, Kamran HassaniModeling is a beneficial tool for understanding cardiovascular system functioning and pathophysiology of the system. The present study is concerned with left ventricle Pressure-Volume diagrams obtained by modeling of aortic aneurysms using the cardiovascular electronic system. In addition, these graphs were compared with a normal condition. The electrical circuit of the cardiovascular system consists of 42 segments including the main … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,606 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrey-Catching Behaviour in Mudskippers and Toads: A Comparative AnalysisU. Kutschera, H. Burghagen, J. P. EwertThe invasion of land by a diverse group of fishlike amphibians during the Middle-Late Devonian was a key event in the history of life. It is obvious that the evolutionary transition from an aquatic to a terrestrial habitat was associated with physiological adaptations such as novel feeding strategies that can not be elucidated with fossils alone. Here we show that … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,639 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnvironmental Factors and Limbic Vulnerability in Childhood AutismRichard LatheThe rise in prevalence of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is suggestive of a new etiology. Diagnostic substitution alone is unlikely to account for the increase, while genetic association with detoxification gene alleles points to an environmental contribution. Subtle structural anomalies in the ASD brain are widespread but limbic damage seems important for the development of behaviors diagnostic of ASD. The … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,678 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Characterization of Novel Metal Accumulating Extracellular Protease Secreting Bacteria from Marine Coastal Region of Digha in West Bengal, IndiaSusmita Roy, Kaushal Mishra, Sanhita Chowdhury et al.Problem statement: The objective of the present piece of work was to explore the existing biodiversity of protease secreting microbes in a marine ecosystem, the site selected being the coastal region of West Bengal (Digha), India. Approach: The culture dependent method was used for isolation and characterization of novel microbes from the point of biotechnological application. The isolate obtained was … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,187 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Analysis of the Creatine Kinase Isoenzyme and Cardiac Troponin T Levels in a Polymyositis PatientR.M. Golding, L.G.F. Giles, E.M. SokoyaFrom an extensive model developed to interpret physiological processes we are able to show that the observed elevated creatine kinase-myoglobin (CK-MB) and serum concentration of cardiac troponin T (cTnT) values for a particular patient are associated with the inflammatory disease, polymyositis, and not myocardial injury. This highlights that caution must be exercised in using elevated CK-MB and cTnT levels as … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,875 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEmploying New Mathematical Models and Equations to Evaluate Risk-Benefit Criteria of Clinical TherapeuticsDa Yong Lu, Ting Ren Lu, Jian DingCurrent preclinical and clinical evaluation of a drugs or therapy is at first to find out a maximum toxicity tolerance, which is overall fixed. The potential therapeutic dosage will be ranged just lower or within the periphery of these maximum tolerant data. A hidden acceptance among general researchers lies as the toxicity concentration of a drug is always the same … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,825 accessesView PDFCite
