Taxonomically, Argentine mackerels were first considered as Scomber japonicus marplatensis and later as Scomber japonicus Houttuyn 1782, although, in the last years, different studies have suggested that South Atlantic mackerel species belongs to Scomber colias Gmelin 1789. These latter results, incorporated in the main fish databases (FishBase and Catalog of Fishes), promoted a phylogenetic st...

introduction camels belong to the family of camelidae, suborder of tylopoda, order of artiodactyla and class of mammalians. the family camelidae has two old world species, double-humped camel (camelus bactrianus) and single-humped camel (camelus dromedaries) and four new world (tribe lamini) species, guanaco (lama guanicoe), llama (lama glama), alpaca (lama pacos) and vicuna (lama vicugna or vi...

Corn stalk can be used as an alternative non-wood raw material to produce cellulosic dissolving grade pulp. In this work, the potential of corn stalk in the production of dissolving pulp (alpha-cellulose) was investigated. It was collect ed from a corn stalk farm of Kermanshah, Iran. The sequences of experimental work were: water and acid prehydrolysis at 160˚C for 30min, followed by Kraft pulp...

RNAi mechanism plays a major role in silencing the expression of target genes by siRNAs. In the current study, in silico properties of 30 genes in omega-2 gliadin and 266 nt and 326 nt mutations were investigated before and after cloning in an expression vector. Specific primers were designed for 30 genes with spacer regions of 75 nt and 178 nt (for gene invert repeats). The frequency of siRNA ...

In this research a molecular method based on polymerase chain reaction for typing of Clostridium perfringens was developed and toxin genotypes of 64 isolates from sheep and goats in Iran were determined. The PCR assays were developed for detection of alpha (cpa), beta (cpb) and epsilon (etx) toxin genes, allowing classification of the isolates into genotypes A B, C and D. The field isolates ...
