Conventional pretransfusion testing based on hemagglutination assays can be challenging for patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) because of the presence of auto-antibodies. It has been suggested that deoxyribonucleic acid-based methods could be more efficient in the selection of antigen-matched red blood cell units in those settings. Because of the high risk of alloimmunization of t...

to study the effects of biofertilizers in their different levels of nitrogen (n) and phosphorus (p) on yield related parameters of barley (sahra cultivar), a split plot experiment based upon a randomized complete block design of three replications was conducted. main plots consisted of: nitrogen at three levels (0, 50 and 100 kg n ha-1 as urea), while sub plots were: phosphorus at two levels (0...

Background: GABAergic drugs can modulate the rewarding properties of morphine. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of isoniazid, as a GABAergic agent, on the rewarding effects of morphine. Methods: Eighteen groups of female mice (eight per group) were used in a conditioned place preference (CPP) study. On the conditioning phase of the CPP p...

ABSTRACT- The effects of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) treatments on the growth and nutrient composition of chickpea were studied in a greenhouse experiment arranged in a completely randomized design. While the application of Fe decreased mean shoot dry weight of chickpea, that of Zn had no significant effect on chickpea shoot dry weight. Increasing Fe levels drastically decreased Mn concentration an...

background and objectives: over the last two decades, a large number of researches have been conducted regarding the importance of nitrogen in sugar beet. this indicate that there were needs to investigate more on nitrogen management to achive higher production and quality because less nitrogen application result in reducing yield and high nitrogen application would increase production costs an...

abstract in order to evaluate the effect of different nitrogen application methods on yield and yield components of winter wheat, a field experiment with split plot arrangement in completely randomized blocks design with four replicates was conducted in 2006. basal dressing in three levels (1- with no basal dressing, 2- strip and 3- distributing nitrogen fertilizer) as main plot and top dressin...

applying a suitable tillage method is vital to chickpea production in dryland conditions. hence, eight tillage methods were studied using strip plots in a randomized complete block design with three replications over three years at the dryland agricultural research institute in maragheh, iran. the amount of rainfall in the three years of the study were 202, 264 and 203 mm, respectively, which w...

Even though clinical features in autoimmune haemolytic anaemia vary according to the type of AIHA, anaemic syndrome stays common for most cases. A positive Coombs test or direct anti-globulin developed 1945 by Coombs, Mourant and Race, is deciding factor AIHA diagnosis. Since immunologic mechanisms causing erythrocyte destruction between AIHAs, treatment also different. Empirical approach with ...

This paper describes the application of IP Method 585 for measuring trace amounts of FAME in jet fuel using the Agilent 5975C GC/MS system. This method uses selective ion monitoring (SIM) to improve FAME selectivity and sensitivity in the complex jet fuel sample matrix. This was demonstrated by running jet fuel samples spiked with known quantities of soybean biodiesel FAMEs. Full recovery of th...
