PURPOSE Determine the effects of the MSG (monosodium glutamate) in the offspring of pregnant rats through the comparison of the weight, NAL (nasal-anal length) and IL (Index of Lee) at birth and with 21 days of life. METHODS Pregnant Wistar rats and their offspring were divided into 3 groups: GC, G10 and G20. Each of the groups received 0%, 10% and 20% of MSG, respectively from coupling until...

It has been shown that many diseases are linked to abnormalities of the erythrocyte membrane. This study observed the changes in erythrocyte membrane fluidity during an immobilization period of 21 days. The right hindlimbs of male adult New Zealand white rabbits were immobilized for 21 days. Blood samples were collected and heparinized prior to immobilization and on days 1, 3, 7, 14, and 21 of ...

Adult AIDS Clinical Trials Group 5043 examined pharmacokinetic (PK) interactions between amprenavir (APV) and efavirenz (EFV) both by themselves and when nelfinavir (NFV), indinavir (IDV), ritonavir (RTV), or saquinavir (SQV) is added. A PK study was conducted after the administration of single doses of APV (day 0). Subjects (n = 56) received 600 mg of EFV every 24 h (q24h) for 10 days and rest...

this research was conducted to evaluate the effects of adding five levels of ferula assa foetida powder (0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and 1 percent of diet) on performance, humoral and cellular immune status and cecal microbial population. a total of 200 one-day-old mixed sex ross 308 broiler chicks were randomly assigned to 5 experimental groups with each four replicates and 10 birds in each replicate,...

ABSTRACT: Acidophilus milk after preparation, with the defined characteristics of pH, titratable acidity and viable counts of Lb. acidophilus, was kept at the refrigerator (5 °C) and changes of above mentioned parameters were evaluated during 21 days at 7-day intervals. The obtained results showed that the titratable acidity of product significantly (p≤0.05) increased over storage period, demon...

introduction: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of adding propylene glycol (pg) to mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) liquid with volume ratio of 20% on the compressive strength (cs) of mta in two time periods (4 and 21 days) after mixing. methods and materials: four groups of steel cylinders ( n =15) with an internal diameter of 3 and a height of 6 mm were prepared and mta (groups...

Platelet concentrates (PCs) are widely used in transfusion medicine for therapeutic purposes and their demand is constantly on the rise. Current storage regulations make this product highly susceptible to bacterial contaminations platelet lesions (PSL) causing need alternative methods be considered. The implementation of cold not only reduces unnecessary wastage valuable donations overall costs...

It has been shown that for distinct odd primes p1, p2, . . . , pn and q, all Moufang loops of order p1p2 · · · pnq are groups if and only if q is not congruent to 1 modulo pi for each i. In this paper, we extend that result to include Moufang loops of order p1p 2 2 · · · pnq. Mathematics Subject Classification: 20N05

Enterocin (Ent) 4231, produced by non-rabbit origin strain Enterococcus faecium CCM 4231 was used in combination with sage plant extract in rabbits with the aim to check their antimicrobial activity against microbiota, their effect on immunological, biochemical blood parameters, values of volatile fatty acids in caecum, Eimeria sp. oocysts occurrence and selected parameters of rabbits meat. The...
