casein possesses important physiological and biological properties with regard to promotion of health, as well as prevention of diseases. anticarcinogenic activities, reduction in the risk factors of cardiovascular disease and anticariogenic features have been associated with casein. in addition, casein is known as a source of bioactive peptides. casein-derived peptides have been found to have ...

chromatomyia horticola (goureau) (diptera: agromyzidae) is a highly polyphagous leaf miner that causes severe damage to different crops. sampling on the alysiinae (braconidae) parasitoids of c. horticola was performed at various locations of kermanshah province during 2009–2010. infested leaves of host plants bearing the larvae and puparia of c. horticola were collected and placed inside the pl...

the chitinase producing ability of pseudomonas fluorescens strains viz., pf1, pb2 and fp7 was evaluated in a culture medium with and without a chitin source. the addition of 1% (v/v) chitin in culture medium significantly increased the bacterial population and chitinase activity. among three strains tested, fp7 responded well to the addition of chitin by producing 31.2% increased chitinase in c...

introduction:with increasing threats of weapons of mass destruction (wmd) in future war especially biological threats against our country necessity of using novel technologies in crisis management against new warfare’s is very important. passive defense as a peaceful and preventive strategy without any warfare is able to not only monitor the prospect of new warfare specially biological warfare ...

styrene is an important constituent of widely used organic solvents in industries for production of various synthetic materials. the use of solid-phase extraction (spe) has grown and is a fertile technique of sample preparation as it provides better results than those produced by liquidliquid extraction. in this study, spe has been optimized, regarding sample ph, sample concentration, sample fl...

biological anthropology had been considerably changed from beginning to now. from 19th to mid-20th century, the race has been the principal concept in bio-anthropologic researches. since mid-20th, the concept of race replaced with the new subjects. the second half of 20th century can be counted as the transition period for bio-anthropology. the three last decades of 20th century are the decades...

readymade garment industries are the prominent economic sector for bangladesh as well as scoping the huge working area for workers. but health condition of workers, drinking water quality, and proper maintenance of the environmental parameters are not well monitored. this study aims to assess the physio-chemical and bacteriological quality of drinking water provided for the garment workers in d...

  Septicemia in neonates is the commonest cause of mortality. Early recognition and diagnosis of neonatal sepsis remains a challenge because of the variable and nonspecific clinical presentation. The laboratory criteria are often non specific and not fully reliable. The objective of this review is to highlight the various hematological and biological markers of neonatal sepsis. We searched ...

Oxazine derivatives are significant class of heterocycle compounds, which has involved much synthetic attention due to their extensive variety of pharmacological activities. Oxazine is a heterocyclic compound can be formally derived from benzene, and its reduction products, by suitable substitution of carbon (and hydrogen) atoms by nitrogen and oxygen. In the last few years oxazine derivatives ...

in this study the effect of different concentrations of silicon( 0, 2 , 4 and 6 mm, on expression of some genes involved in resistance and activity of several antioxidan enzymes was investigated: the plants was treated in flowering stage via soil solution. the treated plants were inoculated with 106 spore suspended in 1 ml by injection into the lower part of the spikelets and then were harveste...
