Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiabetic Retinopathy: Changes in Levels of Orosomucoids in Patients Supplemented with Beta Glucan and Vitamin DRichter Josef, Závorková Martina, Stiborova Ivana et al.The role of beta glucan in stimulating of various biological reactions is getting more and more attention. In this report, we focused on the effects of oral supplementation with beta glucan and vitamin D on changes in serum levels of orosomucoids in patients with diabetic retinopathy. We measured the level of orosomucoids and evaluated the effects of oral supplementation. In … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 15 Apr 2019 · 7,242 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBacterial Diversity Change after Soil Fumigation and its Effect on the Population of Root-Knot NematodeMin Shan, Lihong Liu, Jing Chen et al.In order to explore the effects of soil fumigation on its bacterial diversity and root-knot nematode populations, the greenhouse tomato soil with root-knot nematode disease was fumigated during the summer idle period. This experiment used the high-efficiency organic sulfur soil fumigation treatment "Wofengkang"300 kg/hm2 to fumigate on the greenhouse tomato soil with a root-knot nematode incidence rate of 64.37% and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 2 Mar 2022 · 5,978 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact Assessment of Soil Contamination with Antibiotics (for Example, an Ordinary Chernozem)Yuliya Viktorovna Akimenko, Kamil Shagidullovich Kazeev, Sergey Ilyich KolesnikovThe environmental behavior of antibiotics is not well known and the precise environmental risk assessment is not practical. We studied the impact antibiotics (benzylpenicillin, pharmasin and nystatin) at different concentrations (100 and 600 mg kg-1) on population densities of microorganisms and enzymatic activity of ordinary chernozems in model experiments. The applied doses of antibiotics had definite suppressing effects on population … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 29 Apr 2015 · 7,858 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASSESSING SOIL RESPIRATION AS AN INDICATOR OF SOIL MICROBIAL ACTIVITY IN RECLAIMED METAL CONTAMINATED LANDSKassandre Goupil, Kabwe NkongoloMining, roasting as well as smelting of these elements have caused sulphur dioxide fumigations and metal particulate depositions which have led to various detrimental effects on the overall environmental quality of the Greater Sudbury region. Soil amendment and revegetation within the Greater Sudbury Region were initiated to restore the damage land. Several methods have been used to assess the progress … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 11 Jul 2014 · 8,104 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiological Control of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Causal Agent of Sunflower Head and Stem Rot Disease, by Use of Soil borne Actinomycetes IsolatesF. Baniasadi, G. H. Shahidi Bonjar, A. Baghizadeh et al.Problem statement: High level of biosafety and non adverse effects on the environment of biocontrol strategies of pest management, are priorities of tomorrow's world agriculture. Actinomycetes are active biocontrol agents due to their antagonistic properties against wide range of plant pathogens particularly fungi. Fungal pathogens are liable for a big part of damages in agriculture economy. Approach: In the present … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 11,169 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBehavioral, Physiological and Biochemical Hormetic Responses to the Autoxidizable Dye Methylene BlueAleksandra K. Bruchey, F. Gonzalez-LimaThe goals of this review were to identify methylene blue (MB) as a compound that follows hormetic behavior for a wide range of effects and to address the question of what is unique about MB that could account for its wide applicability and hormetic behavior as a drug. The MB hormetic doseresponse relationship is exemplified by an increase in various … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 15,052 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigations on the Grasping Contact Analysis of Biological Tissues With Applications in Minimally Invasive SurgeryAli Bonakdar, Javad Dargahi, Rama BhatAnalytical and finite element methods are employed to determine the contact pressure on the surface of a tissue being grasped by an endoscopic grasper, in Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS). Normally, an endoscopic grasper is corrugated (teeth-like) in order to grasp slippery tissues. It is highly important to avoid damage to the tissues while grasping and manipulation during endoscopic surgery. Therefore, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,907 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLentinan Properties in Anticancer Therapy: A Review on the Last 12-Year LiteratureLuca Vannucci, Petr Sima, Vaclav Vetvicka, Jiri KrizanThe effects of β-glucan in cancer are the most studied biological effects of β-glucan. From all available β-glucans, the most data are available on lentinan, mostly because it is used in clinical practice for over 20 years. Current review represent a state-of-the-art comprehensive review of knowledge obtained in last twelve years. …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 12 Apr 2017 · 12,760 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfection of Ostrinia furnacalis (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) by Endophytic Beauveria bassiana on CornItji Diana Daud, Elkawakib, Kahar Mustari et al.The Asian corn borer, Ostrinia furnacalis Gueneé (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), is one of the most important pests of corn. Control against this pest is attempted in several ways, including the biological control with entomopathogenic fungi, Beauveria bassiana. Infection of B. bassiana in different larval phases can cause differences in insect response. This study aims to examine the effect of different larva’s … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 5 Mar 2020 · 7,454 accessesView PDFCite
