Fifty one soil samples werecallected from some wadis i.e.,(El Sheikh Soliman,Sidri,El-Arishia and Bodra) of AduRudeis district, which is lies between mountain chains. These were collected to determined their physical chemical properties assess total available contents Fe, Mn, Zn Cu in a fairly intanse sampling scheme.The results indicate that the texture class varies sandy clay loam, The conten...

The dietary iron requirement for normal growth and optimum hematological values and bioavailability was determined for channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus fingerlings using eggwhite based diets supplemented with 0,5,10,20,60, and 180-mg ironkg from iron methionine or 20, 60, and 180-mg ironkg from iron sulfate. The basal diet which contained 9.2-mg ironkg, 34% crude protein and 3.1 kcal of dige...

This study aims at determining the level of pollution heavy metals (Cr, Cu and Hg) in soils illegal mining sites Atiwa East District Ghana. The concentrations Copper (Cu), Chromium (Cr), Mercury (Hg) were determined using Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS). extent metal risk assessment was analyzed site. Thirty (30) soil samples collected from three (3) within district. average levels Cu, Cr,...

Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) supplementation has been documented as a useful tool to improve the performance of laying birds reared under harsh environmental conditions. However, there is limited information on the use of ascorbic acid as a means of ameliorating the stressful conditions imposed by feed restriction. To this effect a 3 × 2 factorial experiment was carried out to evaluate the effect ...

The pharmacokinetic studies of enrofloxacin were investigated in yak (Bos grunniens L.) after administration of enrofloxacin by intramuscular route at 5 mgkg-1 body weight. Blood samples were collected from the jugular vein at predetermined time intervals after drug administration. Plasma was separated and analysed for enrofloxacin by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography. Variou...

The study was conducted to evaluate hydraulic conductivity functions in relation to some soil chemical properties in an oxisols of the tropics. Field and laboratory studies were carried out and data collected, subjected to statistical analytical procedure for computing coefficient of variability and correlation among soil properties. Results of the study showed that hydraulic conductivity funct...

Nitric oxide (NO) has been implicated in large number of pathologies ad in normal physiological function of the brain. The aim of this study was to recognize the effect of Nitro-L-Arginine Methyl Ester mHC1 (NAME) and L-Arginine Ethyl Ester.HC1 (ARGININE) on reactivity of the central DA Dg receptor to agonist (Quinpirole) in rats. For this reason we have been used specific behavioural procedure...

The effects of three premedication regimens were compared in 45 healthy patients in whom anaesthesia was induced with diprivan 2 mgkg" I.V Premedication with diazepam 10 mg orally and droperidol 2.5-5 Omg and piritramide 7.5-15.0 mg i.m. resulted in less pain on injection and a more profound sleep from dipnvan than premedicanon with diazepam 10 mg orally or no premedication. No differences in s...

Daily intraperitoneal injection of cyclophosphamide (CPA) (50 mgkg(-1) of body weight) for 5 days resulted in reduced levels of marrow and blood cellularity, which was most pronounced in 18 days post-treatment (pt). On day 18 after CPA treatment the enhancedlevels of nitric oxide (NO) precursors and metabolites (L-arginine, L-citrulline, reactive nitrogen species (RNS)) of marrow and blood cell...
