Mammary glandular tissues and mammary secretions were obtained from sheep at 2-60 d after weaning to study the leucocyte phenotypes associated with mammary involution. From 2-4 d after weaning, neutrophils were the predominant leucocytes in the alveolar and ductal lumina. Lymphocytes were present in the alveolar and ductal epithelium, interalveolar and periductal areas. Most of the lymphocytes ...

Combination of a histochemical fluorescence method for biogem'c monoamines and staining of juxtaglomerular cell granules demonstrated sympathetic nerve terminals in the rat kidney in the walls of the parts of the juxtaglomerular arterioles that contain granulated cells. This forms a morphological basis for a direct influence of sympathetic nervous activity on the liberation of renin. The juxtag...

The compound Mg 2 FeH 6 was synthesized from a 2Mg-Fe mixture in a single process through high-energy ball milling under hydrogen atmosphere at room temperature. The complex hydride was prepared from Mg powder and granulated or powdered Fe using a planetary mill. The phase evolution during different milling times was performed by X-rays diffraction technique. The dehydrogenation behavior of the...

Electron microscopy of the vertical lobe of octopus brain shows that the synaptic knobs of axons with penkarya in the median superior frontal lobe have synaptic vesicles, approximately 28 % of which are dense-cored (or granulated). In contrast, the endings of the amaenne neurons in the vertical lobe and the endings in the retina and optic lobe, both of which are derived from the retinal visual ...

In ewes, the uterine gland knockout (UGKO) phenotype is caused by neonatal exposure to norgestomet to arrest uterine gland development and produce an adult which has a uterus characterized by the lack of endometrial glands. Since endometrial glands in the sheep produce the lymphocyte-inhibitory protein, ovine uterine serpin (OvUS), an experiment was conducted with ewes of the UGKO phenotype to ...

Biochar contains quinones and aromatic structures that facilitate extracellular electron transfer between microbial cells and insoluble minerals. In this study, granulated biochar (1.2-2 mm) and powdered biochar (<0.15 mm) were amended to two ferrihydrite (in situ ferrihydrite and ex situ ferrihydrite) enrichments to investigate the effect of biochar with different particle sizes on dissimilato...

1. Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS) is a by product of the steel industry. Blast furnace slag is defined as “the non-metallic product consisting essentially of calcium silicates and other bases that is developed in a molten condition simultaneously with iron in a blast furnace.” [1] In the production of iron, blast furnaces are loaded with iron o...

In this work, hydroxyapatite/silica nanopowders were granulated to fabricate plasma sprayable feedstocks. For this purpose, the wet powders obtained by heating a hydroxyapatite/silica slurry were stirred and sieved. To realize the feedstock application in the plasma spray process, powders were deposited on titanium substrate. The morphology of granulated feedstock and sprayed coating was ...
