abstract background and objective: diabetes mellitus is associated with cardiomyopathic changes, can be mediated by an oxidative stress. we aimed to study the effects of regular aerobic training and arbutin supplementation on total oxidant status (tos) and total antioxidant (tas) status in the cardiac tissue of diabetic rats. material and methods: fourty-two male wistar rats with an average wei...

high levels of turbidity and suspended solids are the major disadvantages of aerated lagoons. aerated lagoon effluent filtration was investigated by horizontal roughing filter (hrf). removal efficiencies were determined by examining total phosphorus (tp) and total kjeldahl nitrogen (tkn) from hrf influent and effluent, simultaneously. hrf pilot system located on effluent pump station of qom was...

given a graph $g$, the total dominator coloring problem seeks aproper coloring of $g$ with the additional property that everyvertex in the graph is adjacent to all vertices of a color class. weseek to minimize the number of color classes. we initiate to studythis problem on several classes of graphs, as well as findinggeneral bounds and characterizations. we also compare the totaldominator chro...

inflammation is a part of the non-specific immune response which occurs in reaction to any type of injury. medicinal mushrooms have had application in various disorders including cancer, liver injuries, inflammation and diabetes. in the present study, the anti-inflammatory effects of the aqueous extracts of medicinal mushrooms (fomes fomentarius, ganoderma applanatum and trametes hirsuta) were ...

the effect of microbial load on the condition index of the edible oyster, saccostrea cucullata were analysed on monthly basis during 2010 and 2011 from the three different stations (namkhana, frasergaunge and sajnekhali) of indian sundarbans. the results showed significant variation with respect to microbial load between stations and seasons, which is reflected in the tissue of edible oyster. s...

where A and b are rational and the associate dual program min y b s.t. A y = c (2) y ≥ 0 Definition 1 The system of inequalities by Ax ≤ b is Total Dual Integral or TDI if for all integral vectors c the dual program has an integral solution whenever the optimal value is finite. The main result for today is Theorem 1 If Ax ≤ b is TDI and b is integral then P = {x : Ax ≤ b} is integral ∗ ∗ Proof:...

Male infertility due to abnormal spermatozoa has been reported in both animals and humans, but its pathogenic causes, including genetic abnormalities, remain largely unknown. On the other hand, contraceptive options for men are limited, and a specific, reversible and safe method of male contraception has been a long-standing quest in medicine. Some progress has recently been made in exploring t...
