conclusions the canola oilseeds could provide a useful expression system to produce hcv core protein as a vaccine candidate. results western blot analysis using anti-his antibody confirmed the presence of a 15 kda protein in the seeds of t1 transgenic lines. the amount of antigenic protein accumulated in the seeds of these transgenic lines was up to 0.05% of the total soluble protein (tsp). mat...

the effects of two diets, a control diet (commercial feed with 39% crude protein) and an experimental diet (prepared based on 42% soybean meal with 38% crude protein), on growth performance of western white shrimp (litopenaeus vannamei) in six 0.4-ha-earthen ponds (three replications per treatment) with 25 per m2 density, were investigated. there was no significant difference in final weight (m...

in order to investigate drought stress and plant density the yield, yield components and protein of spotted bean grain (cultivar talash), an experiment was carried out as split plots in randomized complete blocks with three replications in yasouj, in 2012. factors of the test including irrigation in three levels; without stress (control treatment), water stress in vegetative stage (interrupting...

background: melon (cucumis melo) allergy is one of the most common food allergies, characterized by oral allergy syndrome. to date, two allergen molecules, cuc m 1 and cuc m 2, have been fully characterized in melon pulp, but there are few reports about the molecular characteristics of cuc m 3. methods:the cuc m 3 cdna has been characterized by rapid amplification of cdna ends (race), which rev...

the influenza a virus is of global concern for the poultry industry, especially the h5 subtype as it has the potential to become highly pathogenic for poultry and mankind. recently, plant expression systems have gained interest as an alternative for the production of vaccine antigens. the goal of the present study was to investigate the possibility of expressing the ha1 protein in nicotiana tab...
