An auto#{225}omal recessive mutant (symbol, dan) in the dog causes chondrodysplastic dwarfism and mild anemia as pleiotropic effects. The anemia is characterized by stomatocytosis, macrocytosis, low MCHC, increased osmotic fragility, shortened red cell survival, reticulocytosis, erythroid hyperplasia, and increased iron turnover. Minor changes can be detected in the red cells of heterozygous ca...

The objective of the current study was to determine whether prenatal iron deficiency induced during gestation in guinea pigs affected locomotor activity and learning and memory processes in the progeny. Dams were fed either iron-deficient anemic or iron-sufficient diets throughout gestation and lactation. After weaning, all pups were fed an iron-sufficient diet. On postnatal day 24 and 40, the ...

zinc sulphate is currently used for treatment of zinc deficiency. its uptake by the body is poor, necessitating the administration of high doses. this leads to a range of unpleasant side effects. in order to increase the bioavailability of zinc, several zinc complexes have been designed and synthesized using bidentate ligands of hydroxypyranones and hydroxypyridinones. elemental analysis in eac...

book through his lucid presentation of much technical data. The discussion of corrosive qualities of water is unusually thorough and explicit as is his discussion of the sanitary significance of impurities in water and on bacterial decomposition of organic matter in water. What might be considered to be a deficiency is the rather limited discussion of waterborne diseases. The liberal footnotes ...

Hereditary diabetes insipidus is a rare endocrine disorder caused by a deficiency of the antidiuretic hormone, vasopressin. The disease is characterized by polyuria, extreme thirst, and polydipsia. In this study of six affected members from two families with hereditary diabetes insipidus, it was found that two children who drank water fluoridated at optimum levels developed moderate to severe f...
