background: it is widely considered that a regular breakfast provides a number of health benefits; however, there is no general scientific agreement regarding what kind of food should be consumed. evidence supports the importance of balancing blood glucose levels by l ow glycaemic index/load (l-gi/l) and increased protein diets, in particular in metabolic disorders, which non-alcoholic fatty li...

Objective(s) Psychotropic medications produce their effects, in part, through increasing neurotrophin levels in the brain. Since studies concerning nerve growth factor (NGF) analysis have been limited in scope, in the current experiments we investigated the effects of diverse psychotropic agents on NGF protein levels in various brain regions of rat. Materials and Methods Male Wistar rats rec...

In this study the effect of different protein levels on reproductive performance of Channa striatus was conducted. Snakehead juveniles (65.5±0.2 g) were randomly distributed into nine homogenous groups of 75 fish each. Three isocaloric experimental diets differing in protein levels were prepared. The experiment lasted for 8 months and gonadosomatic index, absolute fecundity, egg diameter, numbe...

intermolecular potential energy surface (ips) for protein — protein has been examined using rhf, dft-b3lypand mp2 levels of theory with 6-31g, 6-31g* basis sets. a number of basis sets were used in order to evaluatethe basis set effects, at all three levels of theory, basis sets has significant effects on the calculated potentialenergy curves (including position, depth and width of the potentia...

background and objective: febrile convulsions (fc) are the most common seizure disorder in children. lumbar puncture should be considered in any case with fc who is suspected to intracranial infections. this study determined white blood cell and polymorphonuclear cell counts, and protein and glucose levels in cere-brospinal fluids (cfs) of children hospitalized with fc. methods: in this cross s...
