bovine leukemia provirus: evidence of presence of part of gag gene inseminal plasma of naturally infected bullsit is of critical importance to understand the modalities of blv presence in semen, especially with regard to artificial insemination (ai). presence of bovine leukemia provirus was demonstrated in fresh and frozen semen samples by researchers. in this study paired blood and semen sampl...

We investigated the effect of a candidate artificial blood substitute, Fluosol-DA (FDA), on human neutrophil function in a serum-free medium. In a 50% (vol/vol) mixture with polymorphonuclear cells (PMN), FDA had no effect on PMN viability, phagocytosis, superoxide anion generation, degranulation, or bactericidal activity. In striking contrast, the random migration and chemotaxis of PMN to both...

This paper gives the details about development of Nano Route Based Synthetic RBCs. Blood plays an important role in survival and functioning Human body. is required various treatments during surgeries loss blood can cause several problems. World facing problems due to shortage blood. RBC (Artificial blood) a safe alternative for using nano-technology. It used instead human transfusions overcome...

AIM To determine the accuracy of the estimation of blood loss using simulated clinical examples. SETTING Over 100 attendees came together at a seminar about postpartum haemorrhage in June 2006. Five blood loss assessment stations were constructed, each containing a simulated clinical example. Each station was numbered and was made up of a variety of equipment used in birthing suites. Over 5L ...

The efficacy of one-stage artificial dermis and skin grafting was tested in a nude rat model. Reconstruction with artificial dermis is usually a two-stage procedure with 2- to 3-week intermission. If one-stage use of artificial dermis and split-thickness skin grafting are effective, the overall burden on patients and the medical cost will markedly decrease. The graft take rate, contraction rate...

Blood substitutes have long been sought after, and artificial oxygen carriers may soon become a reality. Despite increased safety of allogeneic blood in terms of transmission of infectious diseases [1], avoiding allogeneic blood transfusions remains an important goal in perioperative and intensive care medicine. This is because allogeneic blood transfusions may cause immunosuppression with an i...

Human Adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) has been extensively explored in clinical gene therapy, but its immunogenicity dramatically affects the kinetics and toxicity profile of the vector. We previously designed a variety of artificial lipid bilayer envelopes around the viral capsid to develop safer hybrid vectors. Here, we studied the interaction of enveloped Ad in cationic (DOTAP:Chol) or anionic (DOPE...

the purpose of this study was to determine the seasonal changes of vital signs (body temperature, pulse rate and blood pressure) in relation to the working thermal conditions. in this study a total number of 202 permanent workers of bakeries were studied during summer and winter. the results showed the body temperature and pulse rate raised more in summer than in winter in all workers except wh...
