asparagus racemosus willd. has repeatedly been mentioned as a galactogogue in ayurvedic literature and has been confirmed through animal experiments as well. this randomized double-blind clinical trial evaluates its galactogogue effect in 60 lactating mothers by measurement of changes in their prolactin hormone level during the study. several secondary parameters namely mothers’ weight, babies’...

various stresses during life can affect metabolism and brain activities, immune and endocrine systems directly and indirectly, and ultimately, causes animal behavior change. the cellular and molecular level change in neurotransmitter and hormone concentrations led to the functional changes of operating systems in the intracellular organelles.  these events cause of course oxidative stress. all ...

a total of 2000 records of egg quality of 746 birds and body weight data from 17th generation of fars native fowl breeding station were used to estimate the genetic parameters of egg quality and body weight traits. six univariate animal models with different random effects were fitted for each trait. a model with direct additive genetic and maternal permanent environmental effects was the most ...

In animal-response grazing trials there are sources of uncertainty in one-period one-off measurements, which as partial factorisation over time, become traceable and quantifiable sources of variation in repeat measurement trials. This is illustrated for a trial comparing sheep and goat live-weight gains under two stocking rates on mixed species pastures established by three contrasting sowing m...

Adult Mice (BWt. 30 gms and 40gms) were treated at a 5mg\kgBWt. and 10 mg/kg BWt. of Ethidium Bromide for 10 days in drinking water. Control animals were given equal dose of deionised water. Quantitative and qualitative changes were studied in Spleen. The following features were evaluated: the overall cellularity of the spleen was noticed. The changes were characterised by, injury to spleen tis...

producing soluble or cellular components is one of the main functions of immune system which immunes the body against any kinds of inflammation. the aim of the present study was to investigate the plasma level changes of il-17, crp, and cpk in male mice after 8 weeks of aerobic exercise and omega-3 consumption. for this purpose, 170 male mice (mean age of two months and mean weight of 35±1 g) w...

this study was designed to develop a modified tbi weight drop model for induction of focal mild cerebral injury. a stereotaxic coupled weight drop device was designed. principle arm of device carries up to 500g weights which their force was conveyed to animal skull through a thin nail like metal tip. to determine the optimal configuration of the device to induce mild tbi, six different trials w...
