trasal-contact method test using glass petri-dish rather than the conventional glass jar was used to evaluate the permethrin toxicity and synergism effect of piperonal butoxode (pbo) on nymphae of five strains of blattella germanica (l.). the test was carried out on 2-3 days old of first nympal stage, at four replicates of 10 cockroaches. the susceptible strain showed t50 and kt50 of 12.81 and ...

introduction: leishmania tarentolae (l. tarentolae) is a nonpathogenic species of leishmania genus that can be used as an expression system to produce immunogenic proteins or epitopes in vivo acting as an efficient and safe recombinant live vector in vaccinology. cysteine proteases (cps) are one group of family c1 peptidases in leishmania that are important for survival of the parasite within t...

The way to overcome current limitations in the generation of glucose-responsive insulin-producing cells is selective enrichment of the number of definitive endoderm (DE) progenitor cells. Sox17 is the marker of mesendoderm and definitive endoderm. The aim of the present research was to study the potential of Sox17 knock-in CGR8 mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells to differentiate into insulin produ...
