A complete diallel cross using eight flax genotypes including four Iranian breeding lines and four Canadian genotypes was carried out to estimate genetic parameters for days to flowering, days to maturity, plant height, primary branches per plant, number of capsules per plant, number of seeds per capsule, seed yield per plant, 1000-seed weight, seed yield and harvest index. Analysis of variance...

Anterior and posterior portions of the lens capsules of calf and cow eyes were obtained free of cellular material by a procedure which included ultrasonic treatment. Sugar analyses indicated that approximately 11% of the dry weight of the capsules was in the form of monosaccharide residues, which were identified as glucose, galactose, mannose, fucose, hexosamines, and sialic acids. Small amount...

introduction: to recognize the myelinated nerve fibers of the external and extreme capsules in human brain. materials and methods: 10 adult and normal brains (20 hemispheres) from both sexes were studied using 15 mm serial secions in all three cardinal planes after fixation and processing. these sections were stained by klüver – barrera and heidenhin – woelcke methods. results: some fibers from...

In the present study, an attempt was made to develop the pulsatile drug delivery of Lovastatin to the colon. Formaldehyde treated Capsule bodies were used for the preparation of pulsin caps. It was sealed with unhardened cap of the capsule. The microspheres were prepared by emulsion solvent evaporation technique. Optimized microsphere formulations were selected based on dissolution studies. Hyd...

Small bowel diverticulosis is a rare finding within the general population and jejunal diverticulosis, specifically, is even rarer. Clinical manifestations can range from post-prandial pain, constipation and malabsorption to serious complications, such as gastro-intestinal hemorrhage, perforation and acute intestinal obstruction. Here we describe the case of an 81-year-old gentleman who present...

Title of Document: OPTIMIZATION OF XANTHAN CHITOSAN POLYELECTROLYTIC HYDROGELS FOR MICROENCAPSULATION OF PROBIOTIC BACTERIA Pavan Kumar Soma, Doctor of Philosophy, 2011 Directed By: Associate Professor, Y. Martin Lo, Department of Nutrition and Food Science The effectiveness of microencapsulation system for targeted delivery of probiotics depends on its ability to protect cells from harsh gastr...

background: maturity of silver carp (hypophthalmichthys molitrix) ovary takes place at 2-8 years old and it is depends on photoperiod and environmental water temperature. objectives: the aim of this study was to identify  macroscopical and microscopical structure of silver carp  ovary in  two categories of  body weight, total body length and  at  2 and 4 years old  in khuzestan province climati...

Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is an intestinal obstruction syndrome in which peritoneal deterioration and intraperitoneal inflammation result in intestinal adhesions, which are covered with a fibrin capsule and which cause bowel obstruction. Here, we report the case of a patient with EPS suspected to result from the use of icodextrin peritoneal solution. In this patient, peritoneal p...

background: klebseilla pneumoniae causes urinary tract infections, nosocomial pneumonia and intra-abdominal infections. capsular antigens are considered to be the ultimate virulence determinants. among 77 capsular serotypes of k. pneumoniae, serotypes k1 and k2 are the most virulent ones in humans. objectives: we designed a pcr method for detection of capsular serotypes k1 and k2 of k. pneumoni...
