Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleOxidative Stress and Reproductive Damage Induced by Lead Acetate in Female Guinea Pig (Cavia porcellus): Curative Effects of Hydroethanolic Extract of Spirulina platensisDeutcheu Nienga Sorelle, Ngoula Ferdinand, Manfo Tsague Faustin Pascal et al.This study was aimed at evaluating the curative effects of Hydroethanolic Extract Of Spirulina platensis (HESP) on the reproductive function of female Guinea pig exposed to oxidative stress. Sixty females, 3-4 months old, weighing 300-400 g were divided into six groups (10 animals/group). The neutral control received distilled water, the negative control was treated with lead acetate at a dose … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 8 Apr 2019 · 7,422 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleComparative Study of Properties of Biopolymers from Corn Starch with Addition of Microalgae Spirulina platensisJúllia Koury Abreu, Loraynne Coelho Pereira, José Izaquiel Santos da SilvaThe discovery of the environmental impacts caused by petroleum-based polymers has led to the use of natural polymers gaining more and more space. Naturally occurring polymers, also known as biopolymers, are chemical compounds produced by living things or raw materials from renewable energy sources. Their main advantage is decomposition, while polymers from fossil and non-renewable energies can take hundreds of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 16 Mar 2023 · 6,026 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsINDUCES OF ANTIOXIDANT COMPOUNDS AND SALT TOLERANCE IN WHEAT PLANT, IRRIGATED WITH SEAWATER AS RESPONSE TO APPLICATION OF MICROALGAE SPRAYHanaa H. Abd El Baky, M. M. Hussein, Gamal S. El-BarotyWheat plants (Triticum aestivum L., cv. Giza 168) irrigated with either 10 or 20% of Seawater (SW) were treated with aqueous extracts of green microalgae Scenedesmus obliquus and blue green algae Spirulina platensis (AESO and AESP 20 g (dry weight)/L) in order to increase wheat salt tolerance. Treated plants showed higher ability to tolerate salt stress (10 or 20% SW) … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 7 Jan 2014 · 7,591 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE IMMUNOMODULATORY EFFECTS OF PROBIOTIC BACTERIA ON PERIPHERAL BLOOD MONONUCLEAR CELLS (PBMCS) OF ALLERGIC PATIENTSSomaya M. El Sheikh, Mona A.M. Shalaby, Raghda A. Hafez et al.Allergic diseases represent major health burden. An allergic reaction is characterized by a disrupted T- helper 1â„T-helper 2 balance toward a preferential allergen specifically induced TH2 cytokine profile, causing allergic inflammation Probiotic bacteria have various benificial effects in many pathologic situation. Studies have shown that the bacteria present in the intestinal micro flora play a role in the TH1/TH2 balance … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 10 Sep 2014 · 8,273 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEnhancement of Immunological Responses by Dietary Arthrospira platensis and Possibility of Field Applications as Alternative to Antibiotics in Broiler ChickenShinsuke Katayama, Yumi Kayahara, Tomoko WatanabeArthrospira platensis is one of the candidates expected to replace antibiotics by its immunostimulatory effects in broiler industry, but the evaluation aimed at field applications is not enough. Here, we measured general immunological indicators such as specific antibody responses against sheep red blood cell and Brucella abortus, serum immunoglobulin concentrations and monocyte phagocytic capacity of broiler chickens, which assigned to … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 3 Mar 2016 · 7,086 accessesView PDF Cite
