Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCamel's Milk Protects against Aluminum Chloride-Induced Toxicity in the Liver and Kidney of White Albino RatsFahaid Al-HashemProblem statement: Aluminum chloride (AlCl3) is commonly used in daily life but it can be potentially toxic. Therefore, the present study was carried out to investigate the protective effects of camel’s milk against aluminum-induced biochemical alterations and oxidative stress in the liver and kidney of white albino rats. Approach: White albino male rats (230-250 g) were divided into three groups … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 10,376 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Germination on γ-Oryzanol Content of Selected Sarawak Rice CultivarsSie-Cheong Kiing, Pang-Hung Yiu, Amartalingam Rajan, Sie-Chuong WongProblem statement: Rice is rich in complex carbohydrates and beneficial bioactive compounds such as γ-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA), γ-oryzanol and vitamin. Several bioactive components are known to accumulate in rice during germination process. This study was to investigate the effect of germination process on γ-oryzanol levels in selected Sarawak local rice cultivars. Approach: Rice seeds were germinated for 4, 8, 12, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,975 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResistance to Third-Generation Cephalosporins and Other Antibiotics by Enterobacteriaceae in Western NigeriaA. O. Okesola, O. MakanjuolaProblem statement: The emergence and spread of resistance to third-generation cephalosporins are threatening to create species resistant to all currently available agents. The most common cause of bacterial resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics is the production of beta-lactamases and many of the 2nd and 3rd-generation penicillins and cephalosporins were specifically designed to resist the hydrolytic action of major β-lactamases. However new … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,012 accessesView PDFCite
