This study describes the length-weight (LWR) and length-length (LLR) relationships of four cyprinid important small indigenous fish species (SIS) from the Padma River, Bangladesh. A total of 914 specimens were caught by traditional fishing gear from March 2006 to February 2007. Length (cm) and body weight (g) for each specimen was taken by a digital slide caliper and balance, respectively. The ...

The association between physiologically dependent pharmacokinetic parameters (CL(B), T1/2beta, Vd(ss)) of marbofloxacin and body weight was studied in eight animal species based on allometric equation Y = aWb, where 'Y' is the pharmacokinetic parameter, 'W' is body weight, 'a' is allometric coefficient (intercept) and 'b' is the exponent that describes relation between pharmacokinetic parameter...

Biomass is a promising renewable energy option that provides a more environmentally sustainable alternative to fossil resources by reducing the net flux of greenhouse gasses to the atmosphere. Yet, allometric models that allow the prediction of aboveground biomass (AGB), biomass carbon (C) stock non-destructively have not yet been developed for tropical perennial C4 grasses currently under cons...

Abstract The Couffo basin is not well known, and neither are its aquatic living resources, such as fish fauna, which subjected to high exploitation rates. objectives of this study were establish length-weight ratios (LWRs) length-length (LLRs) for the most important species in catches those certain economic value. A total 12,191 specimens belonging 40 commercial actinopterygian fishes caught wi...

This study was conducted to comprehensively survey the available literature on intravenous pharmacokinetic parameters in the rat, dog, monkey, and human, and to compare common methods for extrapolation of clearance, to identify the most appropriate species to use in pharmacokinetic lead optimization, and to ascertain whether adequate prospective measures of predictive success are currently avai...

The appropriateness of relying on the coefficient of determination (r) as a statistical metric for judging the predictability of human clearance (CL) based on interspecies animal data was assessed. An explicit mathematical expression was derived for r as a function of species body weight and the corresponding measured value of CL. The derived mathematical function demonstrated that r is numeric...

Present study describes the length-weight (LWR) and length-length (LLR) relationships of a freshwater catfish Eutropiichthyes vacha Hamilton from Indus River, Sindh, Pakistan. A total of 281 specimen of E. vacha were collected from fisherman?s catch from February 2005 to January 2006, are used for this study. The parameters a and b of the length-weight relationship were calculated as W= aLb are...

The objective of this study was to analyze the relationship between pharmacokinetic parameters and body weight (W) for orbifloxacin using reported pharmacokinetic data. The parameters of interest: clearance (Cl), volume of distribution at steady state (Vss) and elimination half-life were correlated across nine mammal species, including cattle, dog, rat, rabbit, goat, camel, horse, cat and sheep...
