neonatal purpura fulminans is a rare and life threatening disease that can be inherited or acquired in etiology. it manifests as dic and extensive subcutaneous thrombosis. the condition is often fatal unless there is prompt diagnosis, and judicious therapy. the most important causes of this condition are infections and congenital deficiency of anticoagulant proteins c and s.in the case of pc (p...

fluctuations in salinity impose stress on the physiology of the exposed fish population and can modify their structure. it has been noted that changes in blood characteristics and plasma levels serve as the primary link between environmental change and physiological response (mccormick, 2001). ninety healthy adult cyprinuscarpio (c. carpio) were randomly divided into five groups and kept in sal...

to estimate the effect of microencapsulated fish oil on blood metabolites, rumen and blood plasma fatty acids concentrations twelve sannan dairy goats with 30 ± 5 days in milk (dim) were allocated to 3 treatments in a 3×2 change over design with 2 periods of 30 days. treatments were: 1) the control (without fish oil), 2) microencapsulated fish oil (2% fish oil capsulated in 6% treated whey prot...

Background It has been reported that 15-20% of parous female have experienced at least one miscarriage, while 3% of them have experienced two miscarriages. The goal of this study was to evaluate the plasma level of coagulation factors in women with a history of spontaneous abortions. MaterialsAndMethods In this case-control study, 82 women with a history of two or more abortions referred to the...

it has been well established that the secretions of thyroid hormones and growth hormone (gh) isunder the regulation of different neurotransmitters. the goal of this study was to determine whethersubstance-p, as a neurotransmitter, regulates the mean plasma concentrations of thyroxin (t4),triiodothyronine (t3), gh, milk amount and constituents in sanan goats. nine sanan goats were randomlydivide...

the aim of this study was to compare three routine precipitation methods, including: acetone, tca/acetone wash and tca/acetone. 30 plasma samples were precipitated using above mentioned three methods. pellets were dissolved in rehydration solution and protein quantification was done for this solution. according to statistical analysis using spss ver 16.0 software and one-way anova test, the pro...

To analyze the expression of soluble urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) in plasma, and to explore value plasma suPAR, urinary neutrophil gelatinase associated lipid carrier protein (NGAL) kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) early diagnosis adult with cardiac surgery-associated acute (CSA-AKI).

the aim of this investigation was conducted to proteomic analysis of plasma obtained from pregnant women who destined to develop late-onset preeclampsia without intrauterine growth restriction (iugr) during 16 th week of gestation. plasma was obtained from primiparous women during 16 th week of gestation. 2-de proteomic analysis was done for plasma from 11 healthy pregnant women and 11 women wh...

a simple, reproducible and rapid gas chromatographic method for precise determination of valproic acid (vpa) in human plasma has been developed. total time for sample preparation and gc analysis is less than 45 min. after plasma protein precipitation, vpa was extracted into chloroform with suitable recovery. by using stabilwax®-da capillary gc column, a symmetrical gas chromatographic peak was ...

Plasma hemopexin (HPX) is the key antioxidant protein of endogenous clearance pathway that limits deleterious effects heme released from hemoglobin and myoglobin (the term “heme” used in this article to denote both ferrous ferric forms). During intra-vascular hemolysis, partitioning lipid increases as plasma concentration HPX declines. Therefore, development a replacement therapy during high st...
