Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Vivo Neutralization of Naja nigricollis Venom by Uvaria chamaeOmale James, Ebiloma Unekwuojo Godwin, Idoko Grace OtiniUvaria chamae is a well known medicinal plant in Nigerian traditional medicine for the management of many diseases, but investigations concerning its pharmacological characteristics are rare. In this study, we evaluate its venom neutralizing properties against Naja nigricollis venom in rats. Freshly collected Uvaria chamae leaves were air dried, powdered and extracted in methanol. To study the antivenom properties, albino … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 8,424 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTRANSCRIPTION ACTIVATOR-LIKE EFFECTOR NUCLEASES-AMAZING TOOL FOR GENOME EDITINGAvantika Singh, Vivek Pratap SinghTranscription Activator-Like Effector Nucleases (TALENs) are used to cut specific target DNA sequence in order to knock out a gene or to change its sequence. They are formed by the fusion of TALE protein serving as DNA binding domain along with non-specific DNA cleaving nucleases. Its specificity towards DNA bases in the target sequence is derived from the structure of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2013 · 8,000 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Immunogenicity of CP8, CLFA-FnBPB and CP8-CLFA-FnBPB AntigensXiuli Liu, Yongqing Hao, Shuyi Wang et al.To assess the effects of conjugating Capsular Polysaccharide (CP) with Clumping factor A (ClfA) and Fibronectin-Binding Proteins B (FnBPB) on the immunogenicity of the antigen, CP was isolated and purified from serotype 8 (CP8) Staphylococcus aureus from bovine mastitis dairy herds in Inner Mongolia and ClfA-FnBPB was produced with Escherichia coli encoding a fusion protein ClfA-FnBPB gene. The CP8-ClfA-FnBPB complete … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 30 Aug 2013 · 7,550 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHepatoprotective Effect of Taurine Against Oxidative Stress Due to Methotrexate in RatE. Issabeagloo, M. Taghizadiyeh, P. KermanizadehProblem statement: Taurine, 2-aminoethanesulphonic acid is an essential amino acid. It is present at high concentrations in many tissues. It plays important roles in numerous physiological functions including conjugation with bile acids, modulation of calcium levels and maintenance of osmolarity, antioxidation and stabilization of membranes. Methotrexate (MTX), as the most disease modifying anti-rheumatic drug used for Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), has … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 16 Jan 2012 · 8,499 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of Chlamydophila abortus in Sheep (Ovis aries) in MexicoJuan Manuel Jiménez-Estrada, Marcos R. Escobedo-Guerra, Gabriel Arteaga-Troncoso et al.Chlamydophila abortus is one of the pathogens which induce abortion in small ruminants; this pathogen has a tropism for ruminant placenta and causes the disease commonly referred to as Ovine Enzootic Abortion (OEA). In Europe are estimated economic losses of around 20 million pounds a year by OEA. In the American Continent the disease has been reported only in Canada, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,892 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 · 14,162 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBio-Safety Technology in Production of Bovine Herpesvirus Type 5 (BoHV-5) Using an Alternative Serum-Free MediumTereza C. Cardoso, Heitor F. Ferrari, Maria Cecília R. Luvizotto, Clarice W. ArnsThe detection and growth of bovine herpes virus type 5 (BoHV-5) was evaluated in three different media without foetal bovine serum or animal protein by infecting three different cell lines. The OPTI-PRO, VP-SFM and RPMI 1640 media were supplemented by L-glutamine, antibiotics added by 5µg of insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I) and used to adapt CER, MDBK and CRIB cells in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,994 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential Strain to Produce Bioprotein from Cheaper Carbon Source: Hope for MillionsParveen Jamal, Md. Zahangir Alam, Nurul UmiBioprotein production is one of the most promising breakthroughs of biotechnological innovations. Due to its increasing demand, the efficient strains, substrate and method must be used for high yield product. In this study, screening of five different cerivisiea, Mucor hiemalis and Thricoderma harzianum, was done for bioprotein production by liquid state bioconversion of wheat flour as a cheaper carbon source. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,810 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractGLUTATHIONE: A POSSIBLE LINK TO AUTOPHAGY IN SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUSDilip Shah, Swapan K. NathIncreased free radical formation and altered redox state are of fundamental importance in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases including Systemic Lupus Erythematos (SLE). Free radicals are mainly derived from oxygen (Reactive Oxygen Species/ROS) and nitrogen (Reactive Nitrogen Species/RNS) at mitochondria, cellular membranes and the endoplasmic reticulum membrane as physiological responses to a variety of internal and external stress (Shah et … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 3 Sep 2014 · 12,777 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Review: Biodegradation and Applications of Keratin Degrading Microorganisms and Keratinolytic Enzymes, Focusing on Thermophiles and Thermostable Serine ProteasesWirojne Kanoksilapatham, Weeranut IntagunKeratins are hard-degrading fibrous proteins, insoluble in water and organic solvents, often accumulated in nature and major components in feathers, skins, hair, horn, nail, hoof etc., Keratin-degrading microorganisms such as bacteria, archaea, actinomycetes and fungi employ keratinases to attack keratin.
