background: the clinical symptoms of diabetes mellitus in oral cavity are xerostomia, pathological changes in periodontal tis­sues and caries. it has been suggested that the determination of salvia`s components in diabetic patients may be useful in de­scribing and further understanding the oral findings in this condition. the aim of this study was to detect differences be­tween the salivary alb...

background: protein aggregation is one of the important, common and troubling problems in biotechnology, pharmaceutical industries and amyloid-related disorders. methods: in the present study, the inhibitory effects of some carbohydrates (alginate, β-cyclodextrin and trehalose) on the formation of nano-globular aggregates from normal (hsa) and glycated (ghsa) human serum albumin were studied; w...

background: progress in the field of biology and biochemistry has led to the discovery of numerous bioactive peptides and proteins in the last few decades. delivery of therapeutic proteins/peptides has received a considerable amount of attention in recent years. methods: in this study, a two-step desolvation method was used to produce biodegradable hydrophilic gelatin nanoparticles (gnp) as a d...

the aim of the present work was to prepare and characterize biopolymer nanocarriers and evaluate their suitability in possible oral delivery of insulin. the egg albumin biopolymer was used to prepare nanoparticles which were further characterized by fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (ftir), transmission electron microscopy (tem), scanning electron microscopy (sem), zeta potential, dynam...

The aim of this study was to investigate the comparison between some seminal plasma parameters and age of the bull. Concentrations of various biochemical parameters like fructose, glucose, total proteins, albumin and inorganic ions including Na, K and Cl ions of seminal plasma of breeding Sahiwal bulls of different ageswere assessed. Methods: 40Sahiwal bullsdivided into 4 age groups.Semen (2ml ...

Introduction:preeclampsia has remained one of the important obstetrical problems for which different factors have been suggested.decrease of serum levels of albumin,total protein and phosphorous have been suggested in the pathophysiology of precclampsia.the aim of this study was to determine serum levels of albumin,total protein and phosphorous in normal pregnancy and preeclamptic woman.   Me...
