in the present paper axial distributions of plasma and floating potentials, electron and iondensities and eedf have been measured in the dl region of a hg discharge constriction. an attempt hasbeen made for the resolution of opposing charged layer structures in dl. excitation processes in theconstriction region are studied. using the linearization method for the nonstationary balance equationss...

The aim of the study was to determine some biochemical factors reflecting oxidant-antioxidant balance in the blood of patients being in different stages of the obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). The patients, suspected of OSAS, were submitted to biochemical and somnographic examinations. APolyMesam device was used to establish the severity of apnea episodes. The control group was composed...

The study aimed to the investigation of the toxicity of organophosphorus pesticides malathion (MLT) and diazinon (DZN) in Wistar rats in a repeated dose study for 35 days. MLT and DZN in corn oil vehicle were oral administered. Body and organs weights, plasma and brain cholinesterase activities, serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activities, histopathologi...

The present study was designed to investigate the effect of molasses feeding on biochemical and hormonal parameters in Sahiwal and Karan Fries heifers under two feeding regimes, i.e. feeding regime-1, as per the NRC (2001) and feeding regime-2 having 15 % higher energy (supplementation of molasses) than NRC (2001). Twelve healthy heifers (18-24 month) of each Sahiwal and Karan Fries were select...

OBJECTIVE Pheochromocytomas are neoplasms generally characterized by the autonomous production of catecholamines. This study compared various biochemical parameters for the diagnosis of adrenal pheochromocytoma in patients with adrenal mass. DESIGN One hundred and fifty subjects were studied, including 24 histologically proven pheochromocytomas, 17 aldosterone-secreting and 21 cortisol-secret...
