methanolic extract of whole plant of amaranthus viridis l (meav), was screened for antinociceptive activity using acetic acid induced writhing test, hot plate test and tail immersion test in mice. in a similar way a screening exercise was carried out to determine the antipyretic potential of the extract using yeast induced pyrexia method in rats. administration of the extracts was applied to bo...

There is currently concern and controversy in the shrimp industries of the Americas about the risk posed by the importation and reprocessing of shrimp infected with white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) and yellow head virus (YHV). To further understand the risk, more knowledge concerning the quantitative virus load of infected shrimp is needed. The present study was carried out to better define, us...

Methanol extract of Urena sinuata at a dose of 400 mg/kg body weight, displayed a suppressive effect on motor activity, exploratory be...

the use of recent technologies for the increase of growth indexes and the plants yields is an important aspects and till now many research works for this has been done. one of these efforts is the usage of magnetic water and zeolite for the increase of yield plants. this research work is an study on the effects of magnetic water and zeolite that has been done on frame work of pore random design...

BACKGROUND Tail biting is a common welfare problem in pig production and in addition to being a sign of underlying welfare problems, tail biting reduces welfare in itself. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of tail biting on different pre and post mortem indicators of stress in slaughter pigs and on carcass and meat characteristics. A total of 12 tail bitten (TB) and 13 control (...

ancylostoma tubaeforme was originally described as a separate species parasitizing the cat. the adults of a. tubaeforme are 7 to 12 mm long. a. tubaeforme can be differentiated from the adults of a. braziliense and a. ceylanicum by the presence of three teeth. here we describe the first re­port of a. tubaeforme in a persian young female leopard, 2-3 years old, with head and trunk length 120 cen...
