The amino acid composition of the protein from three strains of rat (Wistar, Zucker lean and Zucker obese), subjected to reference and high-fat diets has been used to determine the mean empirical formula, molecular weight and N content of whole-rat protein. The combined whole protein of the rat was uniform for the six experimental groups, containing an estimate of 17.3% N and a mean aminoacyl r...

this study compared diet and regular coca-cola on enamel erosion in cold and room temperatures.seventy five enamel specimens were prepared and divided into 5 equal groups (n=15) as follows: group 1: regular beverage at room temperature, group 2: regular beverage at refri-gerator temperature, group 3: diet beverage at room and group 4: diet beverage at refrige-rator temperature. the specimens we...

Background Biorotox® is an invented green biologic rodenticide. The present study was designed to determine whether this toxin could cause infertility in male rats. MaterialsAndMethods Sixteen Sprague-Dawley adult male rats were randomly divided into control and treatment groups. Treatment group was received diets containing Biorotox ® for 35 days. Control group was given standard rat food. Wei...

OBJECTIVE We investigated the impact of small doses of lipolysaccharide (LPS) on the development of NASH in the context of a high sucrose and high fat diet in rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into groups fed a synthetic diet (n=8), a regular diet (n=8), a synthetic diet + LPS (n=8) or saline (n=8) and a regular diet + LPS (n=8) or saline (n=8). The LPS (or sa...

Background. To determine the effect of consumption high-oleic sunflower oil on content and biosynthesis energy polyunsaturated (PUFA) fatty acids in rat liver lipids.
 Methods. Rats received a semi-synthetic fat-free diet which 5 % or 15 starch was replaced with high oleic oil. One group rats regular (high linoleic) The duration feeding 30 days. Liver lipids were divided into three fractio...

I . Techniques for the preparation of a semi-synthetic basal diet suitable for the rapid production of zinc deficiency in the rat are described. The complete diet usually contains between 0.6 and 0.9 ppm Zn. 2. When the unsupplemented diet was fed to weanling rats, growth arrest occurred after 4-5 d ; when supplemented with ZnSO., to provide 12 or 20 ppm Zn, the rate of growth of rats was simil...

Germ-free (GF) and conventional (CV) adult rats were given for 4 weeks a semi-synthetic diet containing 10 p. 100 lactose (L) or no lactose (LO). The axenic state had an unfavourable effect on sodium and potassium absorption. On the contrary, it increased the absorption and retention of calcium, phosphorus and magnesium. The favourable effect of lactose on magnesium metabolism was not different...

We present 870 $\mu$m ALMA polarization observations of thermal dust emission from the iconic, edge-on debris disk $\beta$ Pic. While spatially resolved map does not exhibit detectable polarized emission, we detect at $\sim$3$\sigma$ level when averaging across entire disk. The corresponding fraction is $P_\textrm{frac}$ = $0.51 \pm 0.19$%. position angle $\chi$ aligned with minor axis disk, as...

Introduction: Anal fissures are small tears in the lining skin of the anus presenting with typical symptoms of pain and bleeding during defecation. Several new forms of medicines such as glyceryle trinitrate (GTN) ointments and diltiazem, a calcium channel-blocking agent, have been recently used for the treatment of these fissures. Diltiazem relaxes the muscle of anal sphincter and consequently...

Calcium supplements are widely used to prevent osteopenia and osteoporosis can be as a treatment along with other drugs. The effect of this supplement seen from the improved bone quality. focus in study was analyze quality femur based on mineral maturity degree crystallinity ovariectomized Rattus norvegicus where various nano calcium phosphate diets (1.0×; 1.5× 2.0× normal needs, respectively c...
