A cross sectional study was conducted from Nov. 2008 to April 2009 to identify and estimate prevalence of ectoparisites of poultry in intensive and backyard chicken farm at Wolayta Soddo town southern nation nationalities and peoples region of Ethiopia. Three hundred eighty four chickens were selected using systematic random sampling technique. Ectoparasites were collected from different parts ...

The molecular basis for the expression of rat embryonic fibroblast tropomyosin 1 and skeletal muscle beta-tropomyosin was determined. cDNA clones encoding these tropomyosin isoforms exhibit complete identity except for two carboxy-proximal regions (amino acids 189 to 213 and 258 to 284) and different 3'-untranslated sequences. The isoform-specific regions delineate the troponin T-binding domain...

INTRODUCTION Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is a chronic, zoonotic, multi-species disease of cattle caused by Mycobacterium bovis. In developed countries, effective surveillance and enforcement of regulations on bTB control resulted in significant reduction of infections in cattle and hence, humans. However, in developing countries, weak surveillance systems affect accurate and timely reporting of b...

At the era of digital revolution, social media data are growing at an explosive speed. Thanks to the prevailing popularity of mobile devices with cheap costs and high resolutions as well as the ubiquitous Internet access provided by mobile carriers, Wi-Fi, etc., numerous numbers of videos and pictures are generated and uploaded to social media websites such as Facebook, Flickr, and Twitter ever...

CONTEXT Analysis of pancreatic cyst fluid can play a role in the management of asymptomatic cystic neoplasms. OBJECTIVE Our aim was to determine whether cyst size or location can predict the success of cyst fluid collection and analysis. DESIGN Review of prospective management protocol. SETTING Tertiary care referral center. PATIENTS Three-hundreds and 70 patients with suspected pancrea...

In vertebrates, the actin-binding proteins tropomyosins are encoded by four distinct genes that are expressed in a complex pattern during development and muscle differentiation. In this study, we have characterized the transcriptional machinery of the alpha-tropomyosin (alpha-Tm) gene in muscle cells. Promoter analysis revealed that a 284-bp proximal promoter region of the Xenopus laevis alpha-...
