It was found in a previous investigation that various virulent strains of Pasteurella pestis showed a reduction in virulence in aerated broth at 37 C whenever several generations of growth occurred either from small inocula (104 cells/ml) or after repeated passage using larger inocula (Fukui, et al., 1957b). This attenuation seemed to be caused by growth conditions favoring the selection of avi...

Background: The pattern of wrinkles on the lips has individual characteristics and the study of Lip print helps in identifying the persons based on the lips traces. Aim: To find the incidence of different types of lip patterns, the dominant pattern amongst the Rohtak population, to assess the differences in lip patterns among males and females in Rohtak population. Materials and Methods: Lip pr...

Introduction Dialysis is frequently used in continuous flow analysis to separate low molecular weight analytes from protein containing samples. The dialyser assembly consists of two clear plastic blocks with matching donor and recipient grooves, between which is sandwiched a semipermeable membrane. The airsegmented donor (diluted sample) stream and recipient streams flow at constant rates along...

Plasma renin activity and renin substrate levels were measured during the development of cellophane perinephritis hypertension induced by either a bilateral renal wrap procedure or a wrap-nephrectomy procedure in 28 rabbits. Unoperated and unilaterally nephrectomized controls were also studied. Plasma renin concentration was derived from plasma renin activity and plasma renin substrate levels u...

Introduction: Indonesia has the second highest number of Tuberculosis (TB) in world and tuberculosis still pose as a global health priority problem. For diagnostics, microscopy is one important modalities TB diagnosis especially peripheral areas for screening, case-finding, treatment evaluation. The use limited to operator visual burden specimen ...

BACKGROUND The mandibular foramen is of particular importance to the dentist and dental specialist as it marks the beginning of the mandibular canal, which transmits inferior alveolar nerve and vessels. The aim of this study was the localization of anteroposterior and superioinferior position of the mandibular foramen on the panoramic radiographs in adolescent and young adult in a selected samp...

The growth of mould in the indoor environment is an important contributor to the development and exacerbation of atopic disease, and potentially poses other health risks. Moreover, the detection and elimination of mould have resulted in massive remedial expenditures, often without clear engineering knowledge of the nature of the moisture events that led to the damage, especially for residential...

This method is adapted from a protocol described by Grimsley et al. (1977). For more information about P. patens as a model organism, see The Moss Physcomitrella patens: A Novel Model System for Plant Development and Genomic Studies (Cove et al. 2009a). For details about the growth of P. patens on cellophane overlay plates, see Culturing the Moss Physcomitrella patens (Cove et al. 2009b). For p...

For the elucidation of many of the problems of the nature and mode of action of staphylocoagulase, preparations of high biological activity and purity are essential. Preliminary studies along these lines have been reported in the literature.3 11,15 Thus, it has been shown that coagulase may be precipitated by alcohol, by acids, and by halfsaturation with ammonium sulfate. Walston, using 10 volu...

Background: Scientific study of lip prints as lines and fissures in form of wrinkles and grooves on labial mucosal surface of upper and lower lip which developed since sixth week of intra uterine life is called as Cheiloscopy. Materials and methods: The present study was done among total 121 2 nd MBBS students after obtaining their informed written consent and ethical approval. Lip prints were ...
