Blood platelets carry a negative surface charge (Abramson, 1928) and so changes in platelet behaviour may result from changes in this charge. The fact that the migration of platelets in an electric field can be measured by microelectrophoresis was shown by Bangham, Flemans, Heard, and Seaman (1958), using an apparatus which consisted of a capillary tube with platinum electrodes fitted to each e...

Information concerning the interaction of anticoagulants with plasma proteins is limited. Chargaff et al. (1) reported that heparin combined with a protein contained in the albumin fraction of plasma, and that the presence of this protein was necessary for the anticoagulant action. It was also concluded that the interaction of heparin and a labile fraction of &globulin was responsible for the e...

ABSTRACT Background Antibiotic resistance makes antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) agents an alternative for treatment of pathogenic diseases. They are isolated from various animals invertebrates, vertebrates and plants. The present study shows the electrophoretic pattern of protein and peptides from Vicia Faba seed and reports our first attempt to study the antibacterial activity of Vicia faba...

Isoproterenol is a potent B-adrenergic agonist which its effect on rabbit salivary Glands has been studied in this research.two groups of male albino rabbits(five in each group with the mean weight of 1000+_300 gr) were injected with 20 mg/kg of  isoproterenol intrapritoneally each day for fifteen days and one similar group(n=5) was chosen as control group.in one of the test groups in addition ...

The mean serum proteins of 30 children over the age of 3 suffering from cerebral palsy was 7.20 with a standard deviation of 0.49 g. per 100 ml. No difference was found between children with the spastic and athetoid types of cerebral palsy. The electrophoretic pattern of the serum proteins did not differ in the two types, but the alpha 2 globulin diminished significantly with increasing age. Th...
