this study was aimed to detect anti-toxoplasma gondii antibodies in cats infected with rh strain of t. gondii by using an immunoblotting method. for this, cats were experimentally infected using tachyzoites harvested from vero cell cultures. tachyzoites were then lysed and transferred to polyacrylamide gels followed by blotting to pvdf membranes. an immunoblotting was performed using these memb...

objective cerebrospinal fluid (csf), its secretion, circulation and absorption have been the subject of recent researches. there is a general agreement that the main site of csf secretion is in the choroids plexus. however, the main absorption site is controversial. some believe that arachnoid granulations are the principle sites of csf absorption. in this study, different locations of csf abso...

In this paper‎, ‎we give the notions of crossed polymodule and cat$^1$-polygroup‎ ‎as a generalization of Loday's definition‎. ‎Then‎, ‎we define the pullback cat$^1$-polygroup and we obtain some results in this respect‎. ‎Specially‎, ‎we prove that by a pullback cat$^1$-polygroup we can obtain a cat$^1$-group‎.

introduction: open-apex teeth with irreversible pulpitis require complex and difficult treatment. providing the right environment for apexogenesis and pulp protection is vital for their long term prognosis. the young pulp of open apex tooth, however, is better equipped against irritation and assault. the aim of this study was to evaluate pulp inflammation in open apex canine teeth of cats. mate...

enhancement of antioxidant capacity of plants by natural antioxidants obtained from medicinal plants can be a simple way to produce stress tolerant plants. zataria multiflora essential oil (zo) is one of the useful antioxidants with potent antioxidant activity. zo is insoluble in water and can be degraded by light, oxygen, and high temperature. incorporation of zo into poly vinyl alcohol (pva) ...

background : the visceral larva migrans (vlm) is a syndrome observed in human infection with helminth larval eggs such as the toxocara spp. that usually infects dogs and cats. among the risk factors involved in the occurrence of vlm, partic­ularly importance of these animal populations, an investigation was carried out for the presence of toxocara spp. eggs in public parks in the city of urmia,...

cats play crucial roles in the epidemiology of toxoplasmosis. in the present study, a total of 198companion cats of different ages were examined for serum antibodies against toxoplasma gondii byimmunochromatography assay and for oocyst presence in faeces by microscopic examination (flotationmethod) and immunochromatography assay. the cats were selected between referred cases to the veterinary h...

This study primarily addresses the development of dynamic, selective and economical metal–acid (bifunctional) catalysts for one-pot menthol production by citral hydrogenation. Specifically, various metals such as Pd, Pt, Ni, Cs Sn were doped over alumina support. Additionally, bifunctional composite also prepared with impregnation heteropoly acids Pd precursors Analytical techniques (e.g., BET,...

We give conditions when cat(f × g) < cat(f) + cat(g). We apply our result to show that under suitable conditions for rational maps f , mcat(f) < cat(f) is equivalent to cat(f) = cat(f×idSn). Many examples with mcat(f) < cat(f) satisfying our conditions are constructed. We also resolve one open case of Ganea’s conjecture by constructing a space X such that cat(X × S1) = cat(X) = 2. In fact for e...
