Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEffect of Methyl Cellulose Coating and Pre-Treatment on Oil Uptake, Moisture Retention and Physical Properties of Deep-Fat Fried Starchy Dough SystemJihad M. Quasem, Ayman Suliman Mazahreh, Khaled Abu-Alruz et al.Problem statement: The influence of edible methyl cellulose coating and blanching pre-treatment in reducing oil uptake and moisture loss during frying of starchy dough system was investigated. Approach: Potato dough cylinder of 60 mm length and 22 mm diameter was used as a model food system. Samples were coated with 0.5% methyl cellulose film-forming solution and uncoated samples were used … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,464 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn vitro Ruminal Cumulative Gas and Methane Production, Enzyme Activity, Fermentation Profile and Nutrient Digestibility on Feed Supplemented with Organic SeleniumMoh. Sofi’ul Anam, Andriyani Astuti, Budi Prasetyo Widyobroto et al.Methane (CH4) emissions are indeed a global environmental concern and ruminants are a significant source of these emissions; however, there is limited understanding regarding the contribution of organic Selenium (Se) in mitigating CH4 emissions. Hence, this study investigated the impact of supplementing organic Se from Selenomethionine (Se-Met) on the in vitro ruminal cumulative gas and CH4 production, fermentation profile, enzyme … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 26 Oct 2023 · 5,215 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Phenylbutazone on Pentylenetetrazole-Induced Seizure in MiceKhayatnouri MirhadiProblem statement: The Cyclooxygenases (COXs), the key enzymes that convert arachidonic acid to Prostaglandins (PGs), had been implicated in physiological and pathophysiological functions in the CNS. Non-Stesoidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs), COX inhibitors, were used largely to treat febrile condition, pain state and for prevention of and therapeutics of many diseases. However the role of PGs and NSAIDs in the seizure … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 13 Dec 2011 · 7,675 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Quercetin on Diabetes-Induced Alteration in CYP3A Activity and Bioavailability of Pioglitazone in RatsSudhir Niranjan Umathe, Pankaj Vinod Dixit, Jignesh Manubhai Vaghasiya, Nishant Sudhir JainProblem statement: Quercetin-a common bioflavonoid, is present in herbal preparations consumed by diabetic patients along with routine anti-diabetic agents. We recently showed that quercetin increases the bioavailability of pioglitazone in non-diabetic rats. Thus, present study investigated whether this pharmacokinetic interaction is also evident in diabetic animals, especially because diabetic subjects have altered gastrointestinal (GI) function and CYP3A activity. Approach: The … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,818 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCPI-1189 Protects Against Dextran Sulfate Sodium-induced Colitis in MiceBeverley Greenwood-Van Meerveld, Karl R. TylerNitrone-related therapeutics (NRTs) represent a new class of small molecules potentially effective in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by protecting cells from damage caused by excess inflammation and/or oxidative stress. The goal of this study was to determine the efficacy and potency of CPI-1189, a novel therapeutic agent, in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis in mice. Mice received … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,713 accessesView PDF Cite
