nec is inflammatory necrosis of intestine with most common site being terminal ileum and ascending colon in preterm babies (1). the condition is typically seen in premature infants, and the timing of its onset is generally inversely proportional to the gestational age of the baby at birth, i.e. the earlier a baby is born, longer is the time of risk for nec in premature babies. the incidence of ...

background: anaphylactic reactions, such as urticaria, edema, respiratory symptoms, and anaphylactic shock often complicate the course of cystic echinococcosis (ce). methods: to investigate the role of the ige immunoreactive antigen 5 (ag 5) in the sero-positive patients with ce, we determined n-terminal of 57 kda subunit of ag5 responsible for ige and c-terminal of this active antigen related ...

In the legless lizard, Ophisaurus apodus, the hind-limb primordium appears on the caudal extremity of the Wolffian ridge at an early stage in the development of the embryo (4-2 mm long). Three somites each send an extension into this young bud and distribute cells in its mesenchymal mass of cells. An apical epiblastic ridge, appearing as a fold from the exterior, forms on the limb-bud, which at...

in this study, the effects of different types of hand plucking were studied on green leaf yield and black tea quality. bud and a leaf, bud and two leaves, bud and three leaves and bud and four leaves were the types of hand plucking. plucking was down on chine’s hybrid tea and clone 100 in fuman tea research station. shoots were plucked in flashing period regularly during three years. green leaf...

We addressed the question of whether the prolonged local retention of the glucocorticoid (GC) budesonide (BUD) within airway tissue, due to reversible fatty acid esterification, is associated with protracted topical anti-inflammatory activity and improved airway selectivity, when compared with fluticasone propionate (FP). BUD or FP at 25 nmol/kg was administered intratracheally or subcutaneousl...

In deciduous trees, measurement of stem water potential can be difficult during the leafless period in winter. By using thermocouple psychrometry, osmotic water potentials (Ψo; actual Ψo: Ψo(act); Ψo at full saturation: Ψo(sat)) of expressed sap of bark and bud tissue were measured in order to test if the severity of winter desiccation in apple stems could be sufficiently assessed with Ψo. Wate...

abstract persian walnut is one of the most important nut crops in iran. now the majority of orchards are seedling with a great diversity. for establishing uniform orchards and increasing the quantity and quality of yield, patch budding as the most suitable propagation methods, have still technical and practical problems in the country. in spite of high percent of primary success in patch buddin...
