Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpairment of Retrograde Neuronal Transport in Cardiac Vagal Motoneurons in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats: A Wheat Ger Agglutinin-Horseradish Peroxidase Neurohistochemical studyA. Odekunle, C.M. PhillipsCentral projections of vagal motoneurons to the heart were studied in diabetic rats using Wheat germ Agglutinin-Horseradish peroxidase (WGA-HRP). Experimental rats were rendered diabetic by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin in citrate buffer. The diabetic rats were maintained in a stable diabetic state by daily injection of insulin for 24 weeks. Age-matched control rats were injected intraperitoneally with citrate buffer not … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,740 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation Between MMP-3, TIMP-3 Expression and Neuronal Apoptosis After Ischemia -Reperfusion Injury in RatesZi Xiaohong, Mutasem Abuhamed, Yuan Yi et al.Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play a central role in many biological processes, such as embryogenesis, normal tissue remodeling, wound healing, and angiogenesis. How MMP3, TIMP3 expression and neuronal apoptosis (Fas, Fas-L and Bcl) may provide detrimental or beneficial actions during the injury and repair processes after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rates was studied. Adult rats underwent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,175 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAcute Hypotensive and Diuretic Activities of Chamaemelum nobile Aqueous Extract in Normal RatsN. A. Zeggwagh, J. B. Michel, M. EddouksThis study aims to evaluate the effect of Chamaemelum nobile (Cn) intravenous injection on cardiovascular and renal function of normal rats. Intravenous bolus injection of Cn at the dose of 50, 100 and 200 mg kg-1, produced dose dependent reduction in arterial blood pressure (p<0.001). Significant reduction in heart frequency was observed after Cn injection at a dose of 100 … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,115 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhytoremediation of Anaerobic Digester Effluent for Water Purification and Production of Animal FeedA. E. Ghaly, H.A. FaragThe application of phytoremediation for purification of an anaerobically treated dairy manure and production of forage crops was investigated. Four crops (two cereals and two grasses) were examined for their ability to grow hydroponically and to remove pollutants (nutrients) from dairy wastewater. The preliminary experiments showed that timothygrass and orchardgrass did not perform well as aquatic plants. Only 24 and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,201 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment on Biocides Bioaccumulation in Mullet Liza klunzingeri in Kuwaiti Waters, off the Arabian GulfA.H. Bu-Olayan, B. V. ThomasBiocides, such as formaldehyde (HCHO), sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and glutaraldehyde (C5H8O2) that are commonly used in thermal, desalination and power plants and industries were tested on the commercially important mullet fish, Liza klunzingeri to determine the environmental contamination in the stressed ecosystem of Kuwait Bay sites. Multi-factor Probit analysis toxicity tests (96 h) on L. klunzingeri showed the lowest observed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,768 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Application of Carhart Atom Pairs to Predict Anticonvulsant ActivityAlan Talevi, Julian J. Prieto, Luis E. Bruno-Blanch, Eduardo CastroAbout 50 million people in the world suffer from epilepsy, especially in childhood, adolescence and old age. Available treatment fails to control epilepsy in up to 30% of affected people. In developing countries, however, the amount of patients that do not receive adequate treatment climbs up to 75%. Moreover, the new generation of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) causes important central and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,857 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Development of A New, Rapid, Amperometric Immunosensor for the Detection of Low Concentrations of Bacteria Part I: Design of the Detection System and ApplicationsEric Carnes, Ebtisam WilkinsA portable, flow-through amperometric immunoassay system utilizing a newly designed immunosensor has been developed for the detection of bacteria. A sandwich scheme of immunoassay involving two stages of immunoreaction was employed using Escherichia coli as a model. E. coli antibodies were immobilized on Toray carbon paper to create a disposable immunofiltration membrane. Detection of the bacteria was achieved through the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,363 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation and Beneficiation of Feldspar from Arkosic Sandstone in South Jordan for Application in the Ceramic IndustryMousa GougazehThe main purpose of the present study was to investigate the beneficiation and upgrading processes of a Jordanian feldspar ores to be finally implemented in the ceramic industry. The experimental work was conducted to evaluate the role of particle size distribution, chemical composition, mineral content and the magnetic impurities (Fe2O3 +TiO2 contents). The beneficiation of the 500-45 μm fractions, which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 6,981 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChromium (III) Removal and Recovery from Tannery Wastewater by Precipitation ProcessAbass Esmaeili, Alireza Mesdaghi nia, Reza VazirinejadChromium (III) salts are the most widely used chemicals for tanning processes, but 60-70% of total chromium salts reacts with the hides. In the other word, about 30-40% of the chromium amount remains in the solids and liquid wastes (especially spent tanning solutions). Therefore, the removal and recovery of the chromium content of these wastewaters are necessary for environmental protection … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 8,679 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCiprofloxacin Does Not Exert Nephrotoxicity in RatsAsli Baykal, Figen Sarigül, G Süleymanlar et al.Ciprofloxacin, a member of the fluoroquinolone class, is an antibiotic used as a treatment for infections including the Anthrax bacteria. Studies concerning the safety and efficacy of ciprofloxacin have been controversial with respect to nephrotoxicity. Using rats orally treated with ciprofloxacin (400mg/kg/d), the effects of this drug were analyzed measuring several indications of nephrotoxicity: β-NAG, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, and … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,440 accessesView PDFCite
