Near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) was evaluated for its accuracy in analyzing the nutritive value of tropical grass hays made by Florida livestock producers. From 1982 to 1987, a unique set of producer hays was obtained representing four tropical grass species, and an unknown range of maturities, fertilization schemes, weather conditions, and hay making and storage procedures. Gener...

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE To determine maternal complications and fetal outcome of triplet gestations. METHOD Retrospective study of pregnant women with triplet gestation managed in 10 years. RESULTS Fourteen women were managed with triplet gestation, of these, (71.4%) were booked for antenatal care and four (28.6%) were unbooked. The mean age of the women was 31.3 years. The age range was betwe...

Objective: The objective of the present study was to formulate a controlled release floating tablet of Olmesartan Medoxomil. Methods: Floating tablets of Olmesartan Medoxomil were prepared by direct compression method using both natural (sodium alginate and carrageenan) and semi synthetic polymers (HPMC K4M, HPMC K100LV and HPMC E50LV).Sodium bicarbonate and calcium carbonate were used as gas g...

Backgroud: Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is generally attempted before proceeding to more expensive and invasive assisted reproductive techniques such as invitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). This procedure is most commonly performed as a therapeutic method for couples with a wide variety of subfertility etiologies, such as low count or low motility of sperm...

BACKGROUND The largest percentage of failed invitro fertilization (IVF (cycles, are due to lack of implantation. As hereditary thrombophilia can cause in placentation failure, it may have a role in recurrent IVF failure. OBJECTIVE Aim of this case-control study was to determine whether hereditary thrombophilia is more prevalent in women with recurrent IVF failures. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cas...

OBJECTIVE To asses the frequency of ectopic pregnancy and to evaluate the relevance of the risk factors in a Medical Center, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). METHODS This retrospective study was done in Royal Commission Medical Centre, Yanbu Industrial City, KSA over a period of four years, where the medical records of patients with the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy were reviewed. Data was col...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the influence of ovarian follicular dominance on the outcome of oocyte in-vitro maturation. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included 21 patients with polycystic ovaries or polycystic ovary syndrome (Rotterdam criteria, 2004) subjected to 24 invitro maturation (IVM) cycles between October 2015 and January 2017. Patients undergoing IVM received minimal gonadotropin...

With the recent advances in the fields of micro and nanotechnology, there has been growing interest for complex micromanipulation and microassembly strategies. Despite the fact that many commercially available micro devices such as the key components in automobile airbags, ink-jet printers and projection display systems are currently produced in a batch technique with little assembly, many othe...

Rumex vesicarius L .commonly known as” Bladder dock or Chukkakura” is a renowned medicinal plant, which belongs to the family polygonaceae.It posses anti inflammatory, antimicrobial, analgesic, antiviral, antioxidant, cordial and stomachache properties. An attempt has been made to study clonal propagation of this important medicinal plant from nodal segments as explants. These explants were ino...

Stem cells, on regenerative medicine, has enormous potential and impact, lead to the rapidly growing interest for tools to analyze and characterize the behaviors of these cells invitro in an automated and high throughput fashion. Measurement of the proliferative behaviors of cells invitro is important to many biomedical applications for the measurement of the accurate counting and localization ...
