Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptical and Physical Properties of Bismuth Borate Glasses Doped With Dy3+Pichet Limsuwan, Jakrapong Kaewkhao, Parnuwat Chimalawong, Smit InsiripongThis study reports on physical and optical properties of Dy3+ doped bismuth borate glass. The glasses containing Dy3+ in (70-x)B2O3:30Bi2O3:xDy2O3 (where x = 0.0-2.5 mol%) have been prepared by melt-quenching method. In order to understand the role of Dy2O3 in these glasses, the density, molar volume and optical spectra were investigated. The results show that molar volume of the glasses … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 7,355 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCardiac Depression Produced by L-Arginine and Phosphodiestrase Inhibitor on Isolated Mammalian Rabbit Heart: Function of Cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate (cGMP)Hussein F. Sakr, Fahaid Al-Hashem, Mahmoud Al-Khateeb et al.Problem statement: Cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate cGMP is one the important second messengers that determines the cardiomyocyte activity and its role in healthy and diseased cardiac muscle is still controversial. We are reporting the effect of adding L-arginine, the NO donor that stimulates cGMP production and Sildenafil citrate (phosphodiestrase inhibitor) that inhibits cGMP hydrolyis on isolated rabbit’s heart to answer: Is … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,182 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Camel's Milk on Cisplatin-Induced Nephrotoxicity in Swiss Albino MiceMohamed E.M. AfifiProblem statement: Nephrotoxicity is a major complication and a dose limiting factor for cisplatin therapy. Cisplatin mediated nephrotoxicity is remarkably documented by reactive oxygen species. Camel's milk has good nutritive value, antigenotoxic and anticytotoxic effects. The aim of the present study was to assess the protective effect of camel's milk against Cisplatin-induced renal oxidative stress in mice. Approach: Forty mal … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,989 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Super Absorbent Application on Antioxidant Enzyme Activities in Canola (Brassica napus L.) Cultivars under Water Stress ConditionsH. R. Tohidi-Moghadam, A. H. Shirani-Rad, G. Nour-Mohammadi et al.Problem statement: Drought stress significantly limits Canola (Brassica napus L.) growth and crop productivity. Hence, efficient management of soil moisture and study metabolic changes which occur in response to drought is important for agricultural production of this Crop. Approach: For a better understanding of drought tolerance mechanisms and improving soil water content management strategies, an experiment was laid out in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,603 accessesView PDFCite
