The problem of prevention and treatment infectious diseases in practical health care is one the most difficult, unsolved priority ones. At same time, fact biofilm formation by microorganisms-causative agents has already been proved, which leads to an increase resistance pathogens infectious-inflammatory antibacterial drugs, chronization process, atypical course disease. results numerous studies...

Small mammals in temperate areas face seasonal fluctuations of temperature and food availability, both of which may influence their immune responses, which are critical to survival. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that low temperature and food restriction suppress immune function in striped hamsters (Cricetulus barabensis). Thirty-seven adult male hamsters were randomly assigned ...

Objective: Some evidence suggests that chronic uptake of estragole and methyl-eugenol, found in the essential oil of Artemisia dracunculus (tarragon), may be associated with an increased risk of hepato-carcinogenicity. The present study was conducted to investigate the immumodulatory and anti-inflammatory potentials of estragole and methyl-eugenol free extract of tarragon. Materials and Methods...

the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of cottonseed meal (csm) treated with sodium bentonite (sb) on certain blood components and immune response of laying hens. a 3 × 3 factorial arrangement with 3 levels of sb (0, 10, and 20 g/kg of diet) and 3 levels of csm (0, 100 and 200 g/kg of diet) were used within 9 dietary treatments of 4 replicates each. nine mash diets were fed to ...

this experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of olive leaf (ol) on immune response and some blood metabolites of broiler chickens. a total of 400 one-day-old broiler chicks (male and female) were randomly assigned to 5 experimental treatments with 4 replicates of 20 birds each. birds of different treatments were given diets containing 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1% ol powder from 14 to 4...

Immunity in the neonatal animal is primarily maternally derived, either by lymphocytes that pass into the newborn across the placenta or following colostrum ingestion. However, the effect of this passively transferred cellular maternal immunity on the newborn's immune repertoire is not clearly understood. Various studies have shown that colostral lymphocytes are activated and possess functional...

Background: Leucorrhoea is the clinical evidence of infection and can be treated satisfactorily whenever diagnosed. Occurrence of cervical cancer associated with discharge/leucorrhoea can be easily prevented if detected early. Majority of patients attending hospital present with varying degree of vaginal discharge and cytological monitoring of these subjects is mandatory to know any cellular ch...
