In nephrosclerosis (Volhard and Fahr classification of nephritis) there was no decrease in the plasma proteins. With heart failure the ratio of albumin to globulin fell from the normal 1.7 +/- 0.3 to about 1. There is a sharp difference between the two types of glomerulonephritis in the effect on plasma proteins. In the vascular-interstitial type the effect was the same as in nephrosclerosis. T...

high concentration of heavy metals or long time exposure to low concentrations of these metals can usually decrease the hematological indices in fish. therefore the aim of this study was to indicate changes in hematology and serum chemistry of common carp (cyprinus carpio) after low cadmium concentration exposure. 60 apparently healthy common carp (mean weight of 700g) divided in two groups and...

Abstract This work evaluated the functional properties of sesame protein fractions in order to determine their potential food applications. Sesame seed were prepared according solubility: water-soluble (albumin), salt-soluble (globulin), alkaline-soluble (glutelin) and ethanol-soluble (prolamin). Globulin was most abundant fraction, consisting 91% protein, followed by glutelin, albumin prolamin...

Equal weights of the various protein fractions in plasma affect the plasma specific gravity equally, whereas weight for weight the fractions exert differing influences on the plasma viscosity. Thus fibrinogen has a greater effect on the plasma viscosity than does globulin, which, in turn, has a greater effect than albumin (Bircher, 1921 ; Naegeli, 1931; Oberst, 1939; Cowan and Harkness, 1947). ...

to investigate the effects of zataria multiflora boiss essential oil (zmb) on incidence of ascites syndrome and blood parameters of arian broiler chicks, an experiment with 500 one-day-old chicks were conducted. this experiment was based on completely randomized design with 5 treatments including 1) control (basal diet), 2) basal diet with 100 mg/kg probiotic, 3) basal diet with 150 mg/kg avila...

an experiment was conducted on eight weak and anaemic goats revealed pale conjunctivae, increased heart rate, rough hair coat, dullness and depression. the haematology showed significantly decreased haemoglobin (7.37±0.16 g %), packed cell volume (pcv)(23.37±0.56%),total erythrocyte count (tec)(8.12±0.18 million/cumm), mean corpuscular haemoglobin (mch) (9.10±0.30 pg) and mean corpuscular volum...
