چکیده

1. When the plasma protein of dogs is lowered by plasmapheresis, the concentration of chloride and sodium in the plasma and the cerebrospinal fluid tends to become the same, a diminishing of the usual disparity which exists in the presence of a normal plasma protein. 2. This is in accord with the theory that the cerebrospinal fluid is a dialysate, with the choroid plexus acting as a simple dialyzing membrane.

Morphine in Plasma and Cerebrospinal Fluid of Patients Addicted to Opiates Undergoing Surgery: High-performance Liquid Chromatography Method

Background: The prevalence of opium addiction among Iranians is considerable. Since endogenous opioid systems may be altered as a consequence of addiction, it is very important to determine the plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of morphine in Iranian patients addicted to opiates who will undergo surgery.Methods: We obtained CSF and plasma samples from 50 volunteers with an established...

Nitrosative stress indices in dogs with neurological form of canine distemper

This is a prospective, controlled, randomized clinical study to evidence the role of nitrosative stress in development of overt neurological sign of canine distemper (CD). The enrollment of cases wasa made on basis of overt sign of CD (n=139) and the findings were compared with apparently healthy dogs (n=15). The CD specific immunoglobulins resulted in 94 confirmed positive cases. The nitric ox...

The effect of cerebrospinal fluid-derived exosomes on neural differentiation of adipose mesenchymal stem cells in alginate hydrogel scaffold

Nowadays, researchers have made extensive efforts to find new treatments for nerve damage. Meanwhile, the role of exosomes in cell-cell communication is considered to be a new mechanism. Exosomes can act as suitable differentiating agents. The aim of this study was to investigate the differentiating effect of cerebrospinal fluid-derived exosomes on adipose mesenchymal stem cells in alginate hyd...

The influence of sodium chloride replacement with potassium chloride on quality changes of hot smoked Kilka (Clupeonella cultriventris caspia) during storage at ± 4°C

The aim of this work was to study the effect of sodium chloride replacement with potassium chloride on quality changes of hot smoked Kilka during storage at ± 4°C. To achieve this, after initial preparation, samples were exposed to brining process in two salts. This study was designed in two stages: in the first stage, different levels of salt replacement were used to select the best smoked tre...
