In [9], a straightforward extension of the process algebra μCRL was proposed to explicitly deal with time. The process algebra μCRL has been designed especially to deal with data in a process algebraic context. Using the features for data, only a minor extension of the language was needed to obtain a very expressive variant of time. But [9] contains syntax, operational semantics and axioms char...

An organophosphorus insecticide, chlorpyrifos was tested for the embryotoxicity and teratogenecity in mice. Different sublethal doses of the insecticide i.e. 20, 40, 60 and 80ug/gm body weight were prepared by dissolving it in corn oil in such a way that each 0.1ml of the solution contains desired concentration. The doses were given orally on day 6 of gestation to different experimental groups....

The development of ultrasound technology allows us to see the structure and development of the fetus directly. Crown-Rump Length (CRL) and mean diameter of gestational sac (MSD) can be used to determine the age of the fetus. Both parameters are useful for measuring different aspects of the first trimester of pregnancy. This study proposes a method to obtain those parameter values automatically ...

A method is reported by which the "in utero" crownrump length of the fetus may be determined by sonar in the first trimester of pregnancy. The accuracy of the technique was assessed by comparing the sonar and the direct postabortum measurements of fetuses in cases of missed abortion. A normal curve of fetal crown-rump length was derived from 214 examinations on 80 patients and by using these va...

BACKGROUND Methamphetamine (MA) is one of most common illicit drugs which were reported that nearly half of MA consumers are women. MA can cross through placenta and affects pregnancy and fetus development. OBJECTIVE Our aim was to evaluate effects of injected MA on crown-rump length, head and placental circumference, body weight, histological changes and apoptosis in fetus. MATERIALS AND M...

The objective of this study was to identify morphological measurements that best distinguish Moroccan Barcha and Atlas goat breeds. Ten measurements (body weight - BW, body length - BL, heart girth - HG, withers height - WH, rump height - WH, back length - BAL, neck length - NL, head length - HL, ear length - EL, and ear width - EW) of 876 adult animals of both sexes (547 Barcha and 329 Atlas) ...

INTRODUCTION Precise knowledge of the anatomy and development of the airways in the fetus is needed for advances in neonatal medicine. The aim of this study was to assess the morphometry of the larynx during fetal development. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study was performed on 47 human fetal larynges (27 male and 20 female) collected between the age of 13-27 weeks of intrauterine life according ...

With the use of conventional anatomical dissection, radiography, digital and statistical analysis, morphometry and skeletopy of the pancreas was carried out in 60 human foetuses of both sexes (28 female, 32 male) between the 17th and 40th week of intrauterine life. The material was fixed in a 10% formalin solution. The age of the foetuses was determined by crown-rump (CR) length measurement on ...
