Goats provide an essential food supply in the form of milk and meat. Goat has distinct qualities, but it shares many similarities with human bovine regarding its nutritional therapeutic benefits. Because their different compositions, goat cow products could have tastes, nutrients, medicinal effects. Modification composition aid determining viability processing methods. Comparatively, goat's hig...

β-mercaptoacetate (MA) is a drug known to block mitochondrial oxidation of medium- and long-chain fatty acids (FAs) and to stimulate feeding. Because MA-induced feeding is vagally dependent, it has been assumed that the feeding response is mediated by MA's antimetabolic action at a peripheral, vagally innervated site. However, MA's site of action has not yet been identified. Therefore, we used ...

Nano- and microemulsions containing as the oil phase caprylic/capric propylene glycol diesters (Crodamol PC) were investigated as potential vehicle for controlled release of geranic acid. The influence of emulsifiers and co-surfactants on stability of the emulsions was investigated. Different kind of polysorbates (ethoxylated esters of sorbitan and fatty acids) were applied as the emulsifiers. ...

Milk fats from different species of mammals are known to vary considerably in chemical composition. In early work, the butter fat constants were largely used to indicate the differences in composition. More recently, emphasis has been placed on comparisons of the component fatty acids of the various types of butter fats. The methods available for separation of the acids are not conducive to hig...

Colorectal cancer, breast cancer and skin cancer are commonly-reported cancer types in the U.S. Although radiation and chemotherapy are routinely used to treat cancer, they produce side effects in patients. Additionally, resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs has been noticed in cancers. Thus, there is a need for effective and safe bioprophylactics and biotherapeutics in cancer therapy. The medic...

During World War II, the number of infections caused by the dermatophytes reached alarming heights in the armed forces. This fact stimulated the search for agents that could not only inhibit the fungi but also kill them. Therefore, in investigating chemotherapeutic agents, both fungistatic and fungicidal activity must be examined, and to accomplish this, standard in vitro methods must be employ...
