Background: Exposure to environmental toxins such as organophosphates poses a great threat to the health of the public. In this work, we investigated the effects of continuous exposure to dichlorvos (DDVP) on kidney function and hematological parameters, and the possible antidote activity of Nigella sativa oil (NSO). Methods: This research was conducted in 2016, at The Animal Holding and Resea...

introduction: using labeled peptides enjoys high importance in nuclear medicine. somatostatin analogs labeled with different radionuclide are vastly investigated for diagnosis or treatment of somatostatin receptor positive tumors. labeling somatostatin analogs with 99mtc as alternative of 111in needs doing different quality control method for determination of labeling yield and complex stabilit...

thirty multiparous holstein dairy cows with average body weights of 687±15 kg and body condition scores of 3.25±0.15 were allocated to 1 out of each 3 groups, immediately after parturition (dim=11) and in a completely randomized design. the first group was fed diet low in rumen undegradable protein (rup; 5.1% of dry matter), the second group fed with medium rup (7.2% of dry matter) while the th...

The objective of this study was to estimates the genetic and environmental components for the lactation curve parameters, milk yield, age at first calving (AFC), calving interval (CI) and somatic cell count (SCC) in Iranian Holstein cows. The dataset consisted of 210625 test day records from 25883 cows with milk yield in the first parity recorded from July 2002 to September 2007 in a total of 9...
