Abstract Background Although several distribution patterns of periprostatic neurovascular bundles have been proposed, variant dissection technique based on these still confused surgeons. The aim this study was to describe the and their relationship with fascicles around prostate provide accurate morphologic knowledge tissue for operation. Methods pelvic viscera were obtained from 26 adult male ...

smooth muscle tumors rather benign or malignant can arise wherever the muscular tissue presents but cutaneous leiomyoma is one of the rare benign tumors of the which even the diagnostic criteria from the malignant type of the tumor is still in doubt. this study was aimed to compare the subtypes of cutaneous leiomyoma from different histologic aspects in order to find unique criteria for better ...

Luffa echinata Roxb., commonly known as Bindal in Hindi is used for its hypoglycemic activity in the indigenous system of medicine. No pharmacognostical study on stem is reported in the literature till date; therefore, it was decided to study macroscopical and cytomorphological characters in detail to bring out salient diagnostic features. The stem pieces available in the market are 1.5-17 cm l...

Nanocomposites made of Carbon Nanotube (CNT) bundles have attracted researchers’ attention due to their unusual properties such as: light weight, flexibility and stiffness.  In this paper, the effects of straight and rope-shaped bundles on nanocomposite effective mechanical properties are investigated.  First, FEA models are created consisting of CNTs with different shapes of straight and rope-...

DNA gel blot analysis suggested that asparagine synthetase (AS; EC 6.3.5.4) occurred as a single gene in rice. A fusion protein consisting of 17 kDa tagged-region from pET32a(+) expression plasmid and 42 kDa N-terminal region of rice AS was first expressed in Escherichia coli. The resulting polypeptide was purified and a mono-specific antibody for rice AS was prepared after affinity-purificatio...

Bamboo is one of the essential ornamental plants that widely used as a decorative landscape element in gardens. Phyllostachys violascens cv. Viridisulcata has unique internode color phenotype with yellow culm and green sulcus, but their structural development differences remain unknown. In current study, we analyzed histological analysis cross-sections through SEM microscopy. These results reve...
