background: the present study deals with the effect of helminthic infection as nematode parasite like aspiculuris tetraptera on the haematological parameters of infected and vaccinated mice. methods: totally 15 mice were used. five mice were used for positive control, 5 mice used for nega­tive control and 5 mice used for experiment. the hematological parameters were studied viz. rbc, hb, and se...

In this study the effects of water salinity on serum total protein and its components in grass carp were investigated. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of salinity tolerance of fish on total serum protein level and its components as an indicator of liver and kidney activity. One hundred and twenty grass carp were divided into four groups, randomly. The first three groups were r...

background: detection of cancer at an early stage is of utmost importance to decrease the morbidity and mortality of the disease. apart from the conventional biopsy, non‑invasive methods like analysis of serum and saliva may provide cost‑effective approach for screening a large population. tumor markers are a major part of secondary prevention and thus, the detection of malignancies. the aim of...

background: the ability of tumour suppressor protein p53 (p53) to regulate cell cycle processes can be modulated by hepatitis b virus (hbv). while preliminary evidences indicates the involvement of protein-x of hbv (hbx) in altering p53 dna binding, no further data have been accumulated for the significance of serum p53 in chronic hepatitis b virus infected patients. methods: 72 non-cirrhotic a...

the physiological effects of a diet free of meat and eggs were studied. fifteen adult lacto-vegetarians were matched with non-vegetarian individuals by age, sex, body weight and height. a two-week dietary record was secured from each individual. the food consumed over a 48-hour period was measured. venous blood samples were taken from each individual for determination of serum total protein, ur...

background: the aim of this study was to measure the concentrations (levels) of serum total proteins and advanced oxidation protein products as markers of oxidant mediated protein damage in the sera of patients with oral cancers. methods: the study consisted of the sera analyses of serum total protein and advanced oxidation protein products’ levels in 30 age and sex matched controls, 60 patient...

Background: The ability of tumour suppressor protein p53 (P53) to regulate cell cycle processes can be modulated by hepatitis B virus (HBV). While preliminary evidences indicates the involvement of protein-x of HBV (HBx) in altering p53 DNA binding, no further data have been accumulated for the significance of serum p53 in chronic hepatitis B virus infected patients. Methods: 72 non-cirrhotic a...

This study was conducted to determine the electrophoretic pattern of serum protein in goats infected withBabesia ovis. Serum total protein was calculated and serum electrophoresis from 15 goats naturally infectedwith B. ovis as well as same number of healthy goats was performed. Microscopic examination of Giemsastained peripheral blood smears revealed B. ovis infection. The parasitological diag...

Background: Mammalian Cell lines are the main expression system for the production of recombinant therapeutic proteins. Optimization of cell culture condition is performed via alteration in different parameter. Cell culture media plays an important role in cell cycle because of compounds such as amino acids, vitamins, inorganic salts, glucose, and serum as a source of growth factors, trace elem...
