The mortality rate is 10 to 15% for a lethal dose of just 1-2 crushed seeds. Following is the case report of hemorrhagic colitis due to the ingestion of a … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 13 Sep 2015 · 7,843 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBIOENERGETICS, THE FOUNDATION OF THE FUTURE OF CANCER THERAPEUTICS A QUANTUM LEAP IN MAKINGKambiz AfrasiabiDeep understanding of the governing laws of bioenergetics of the living organism and dissection of their aberrancies, could enable us to design new treatment strategies for a vast array of disorders including malignancy and could potentially lead to major breakthroughs and cure of these devastating disorders. The modern treatment strategies currently aim at identification of a pathway considered to be … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 15 Aug 2012 · 7,528 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Transgenic Maize using Immature Embryos of HiII Genotype as a Vaccine CandidateHyun A. Kim, Suk Yoon Kwon, Han Sang Yoo et al.Problem statement: Plant-based vaccines posses some advantages over other types of vaccine biotechnology such as safety, low cost of mass vaccination programs and wider use of vaccines for veterinary medicine. These study was undertaken to develop the transgenic maize as edible vaccine candidate for animals. Approach: The immature embryos of HiII genotype were inoculated with A. tumefaciens strain C58C1 containing … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 5 Mar 2012 · 7,567 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of Sustainable Relief Housing in Ethiopia: An Implementation of Cradle to Cradle Design in Earthbag ConstructionBrooke Barnes, Huantian Cao, Theodore Drab, Jason PearsonProblem statement: Urbanization in Ethiopia resulted in urban poverty and homelessness. In this study, a sustainable relief housing prototype that aided in sheltering homeless citizens was designed. To avoid repeating errors in urban development such as unsustainable resource consumption, it was necessary to look beyond traditional construction materials and methods. Approach: This design applied cradle to cradle design model to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,288 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSolving Volterra's Population Model Using New Second Derivative Multistep MethodsK. Parand, G. HojjatiIn this study new second derivative multistep methods (denoted SDMM) are used to solve Volterra's model for population growth of a species within a closed system. This model is a nonlinear integro-differential where the integral term represents the effect of toxin. This model is first converted to a nonlinear ordinary differential equation and then the new SDMM, which has good … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,908 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVibrio cholerae O1 Strains of Different Ribotypes have Similar hlyA RFLP Patterns but Different Vacuolating AbilityJorge E. Vidal, Paula Figueroa-Arredondo, Silvia Giono-Cerezo et al.Extensive cytoplasmic vacuolation on Vero and HeLa cells in vitro by the Vibrio cholerae pore forming toxin HlyA, has been previously reported by our group. Vibrio cholerae O1 and non-O1 pathogenic strains show differences in the potential to induce vacuolation, here we study occurring variations on vacuolating cytotoxic ability, related to changes in the nucleotide sequence of the hlyA-orf. A … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,984 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSuccessful Treatment of Both Mother and Infant in Pregnancy-Associated Group A Streptococcal Toxic Shock SyndromeTakayuki Tanaka, Kousaku Matsubara, Yumiko Umemoto et al.All perinatal cases of group A streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS) previously documented in English literature have been fatal for the mother, the fetus or both. We present the first report of successful treatment of a mother-infant pair with perinatal STSS. A pregnant woman developed STSS at 34 weeks’ gestation 3 h after delivery, following a 25-h history of fever … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,089 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractToxicity of Dinoflagellate (Gonyaulax verior) from Makassar Strait Waters on Medaka Fish (Oryzias javanicus) Embryo DevelopmentNita Rukminasari, Khusnul Yaqin, Jamaluddin Fitrah AlamThis study investigates the toxic effects of the dinoflagellate Gonyaulax verior on the embryonic development of medaka fish (Oryzias javanicus) sourced from four distinct aquatic environments in the Makassar Strait. Given the increasing presence of harmful algal blooms in marine ecosystems, understanding the impact of toxic dinoflagellates is crucial for assessing risks to fish populations. Embryos were exposed to varying … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 20 Nov 2025 · 2,123 accessesView PDFCite
