A significant increase in blood urea was found in 11 U.S. Navy divers during 8 d of air saturation hyperbaric exposure. Similar increases in blood urea have been found in animals that convulsed during hyperbaric oxygen exposure. Therefore, it is suggested that careful attention be given to blood ammonia and urea levels in humans during long-term hyperbaric exposure.

this experiment was conducted to evaluation the effects of different levels of untreated and treated green grape leaf with urea on performance, egg quality traits and blood parameters of laying hens. in this experiment 192 hy-line (w-36) laying hens, 35 to 46 wk of age were divided in to 4 treatments with 4 replicates (12 birds per replicate) in a completely randomized design experiment. the tr...

Data from 35 trials with 482 lactating cows fed 106 diets were used to study the effects of animal and dietary factors on the relationship between milk and blood urea N and the value of milk urea N in the assessment of protein status. In two trials, urea N in whole blood and in blood plasma were closely related (r2 = 0.952); the slope was not significantly different from 1.0, and the intercept ...

Although urea transport is receiving increased attention in mammalian systems, very little is known about urea transport in fish tissues. This study examined mechanisms of urea transport in red blood cells and hepatocytes from the lesser spotted dogfish (Scyliorhinus canicula), Atlantic stingray (Dasyatis sabina), turbot (Scopthalmus maximus), redfish (Scianops ocellatus), gulf toadfish (Opsanu...

abstract   background: the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of aerobic training with and without drug modification on some blood metabolites and substrates in women with type 2 diabetes. methods: forty-nine women with type 2 diabetes were randomly divided into four groups as following: training-full drug, training-half drug, no training-full drug, and no training-half drug. ...

Elevation of the blood urea nitrogen following massive hemorrhage from the stomach and duodenum is a frequent occurrence (1). Its mechanism is not the same as that associated with high intestinal obstruction, as it occurs in the absence of any vomiting (2) (e.g. in the presence of melena alone4), and is associated with a normal or increased blood chloride concentration (3, 4, 5) and a normal ca...

an experiment was conducted with two hundred and twenty day-old male broiler chicks (ross 308) in five groups to investigate the effects of different levels of 0, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6% thyme extract in drinking water (including 27.4 mg sodium nitrate per liter) on broiler performance and antioxidantstatus and blood gas indices. no significant differences were observed between the treatments for bod...
