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...

A percepção dolorosa, avaliada funcionalmente através do sistema analgésico endógeno, reflete a atividade nociceptivo, o qual depende nível de excitabilidade nervoso, portanto, procura vias e formas que reduzam deste tornou-se uma preocupação humana para assim aliviar da dor. Objetivo: Determinar limiar excitação nociceptivo em animais (camundongos) submetidos tratamento com diferentes doses cl...

Channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus fingerlings were fed purified diets supplemented with iron at levels of 0, 20, 60, and 180 mgkg from iron sulfate (FeS) or 5, 10, 20, 60, and 180 mgkg from iron methionine (FeM) in triplicate tanks for 8 wk. Fish were then divided into two groups and subjected to different assays to measure disease resistance and individual immune functions. Representative fi...

Medicinal plants may provide valuable therapeutic agents in modern medicine and traditional system, especially areas where the drugs are unavailable, expensive or predispose to life threatening complications. One of these is Garlic (Allium L. liliaceae) which used as foodstuff, condiment, flavoring folk medicine. The aim this study was investigate effect garlic juice on plasma glucose concentra...

Quantification of the association between the intake of vegetables and fruit and risk of nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) is controversial. Thus, we conducted a meta-analysis to assess the relationship between vegetables and fruit and NPC risk. Pertinent studies were identified by a search in PubMed, Web of Knowledge and Wan Fang Med Online. Random-effects models were used to calculate summary relat...

In existing models for single bubble dynamics it is necessary to account for radiation damping, a consequence of fluid compressibility. A similar correction is necessary when modeling systems of coupled bubbles. The coupling alters the collective dynamics and therefore the acoustic power radiated. In the linear approximation and for compact clusters in which the bubbles pulsate in phase, the ra...
