Growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) belong to the superfamily of transforming growth factor β that is highly expressed in growing ovarian follicles of oocyte, and it has been strongly related to fecundity traits in sheep. Therefore, the GDF9 gene could serve as a genetic marker for improvement of reproductive performance in sheep. Therefore, the aim of this study was to invest...

according to circumstance of kerman sarcheshmeh cooper complex that its anode slime is mainly consisted of cu, ag, au, pb and se. in this work, recovery of silver from anode slime and subsequent synthesis of silver nanoparticles from leaching solution was made. silver was separated from anode slime by using of hno3 and hcl. x-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (xrf) was used to characterize anode sl...

An important part of plant in vitro techniques is the sterilization of explants and the maintenance of aseptic conditions. Ideally, sterilizing materials should be effective on a vast range of microorganisms at low density. Nowadays, the use of compounds such as essential oils (EOs) and nanoparticles is applicable in microbiology studies. The main objective of this experiment was to study the s...

Objective(s): Silver nanostructures have gathered remarkable attention due to their applications in diversefields. Researchers have recently demonstrated that bacterial spores are capable of reducing silver ions toelemental silver leading to formation of nanoparticles.Materials and Methods: In this study, spores of Bacillus subtilis and Geobacillus stearothermophilus wereemployed to produce sil...

the relation between single nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) and some diseases has been concerned by many researchers. also the missing snps are quite common in genetic association studies. hence, this article investigates the relation between existing snps in dnmt1 of human chromosome 19 with colorectal cancer. this article aims is to presents an imputation method for missing snps not at random...

background polymorphisms in the interferon λ (inf λ) genes on chromosome 19 have been associated with clearance of hepatitis c virus (hcv) induced by interferon and ribavirin therapy however there is no such data available for pakistani patients with hcv infection. objectives in this study, the effects of single nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) have been investigated in response to treatment wit...

it has been suggested that single nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) in genes involved in toll-like receptors (tlrs) pathway may exhibit broad effects on function of this network and might contribute to a range of human diseases. however, the extent to which these variations affect tlr signaling is not well understood. in this study, we adopted a bioinformatics approach to predict the consequences...
