PURPOSE It was hypothesized that heparan sulfate (HS) as an essential compound for myogenesis and nanoparticles of gold (nano-Au) as highly reactive compounds can affect muscle development as a consequence of molecular regulation of muscle cell formation, and that these effects may be enhanced by a complex of HS conjugated with nano-Au. The objective of the present study was to determine the ef...

Abstract The study aimed to evaluate qualitative characteristics of beef from bulls upon the introduction plant- and animal-originated adaptogens. Kazakh white-headed were devided into four groups (n=12): group 1 (control) - basic ration (BR); 2 BR + Rhaponticum carthamoides; 3 pantocrin; 4 drone homogenate. analyzed components introduced with drinking water in an amount 0.01 mL per kg body wei...

background: and objectives:the aim of this study was to detect the antibacterial properties of 0.01, 0.5 and 1% nano-tio2 and -cdo against e. coli. materials and methods: e. coli was cultured in liquid and agar nutrient medium to evaluate the antibacterial effects of 0.01, 0.05 and 1% of both nano-tio2 and -cdo via the optical density (od) and log cfu/ml measurements. results: non-significant e...

Background: Despite the high risk of compromised nutrition, evidence of the effect of refugee rations on fetal growth is limited. A new ration containing micronutrient-fortified flour without increased caloric content of the general food basket was introduced to the Maela refugee camp in Thailand, July 2004.Objective: The effect of the length of gestational exposure of the new ration on fetal g...

Background: This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of supplementing ruminant ration with propionibacterium P169 by using 3X3 Latin square Rahmani rams on feed intake, nutrients digestibility, rumen fermentation, blood plasma metabolites. Methods: Rams were divided into three groups with three successive experimental periods. Each period consisted of 21 days. Animals were fed on: rati...

A simple and efficient synthetic protocol has been developed for the synthesis of 3-substituted-2H-1,4-benzothiazines by using a novel sulfonic acid functionalized nano-γ-Al2O3 catalyst, devoid of corrosive acidic, and basic reagents. The developed method has the advantages of good to excellent yields, short reaction times, operational simplicity, and a recyclable catalyst. The catalyst can be ...

Considerable interest was manifested in the substitution of blackstrap molasses for a part, or all, of the grain in livestock rations during the drought years of 1934 and 1936. Ferrin ^ used molasses with corn and oats in fattening hogs and found that oats and molasses had a comparatively high value as compared with corn and molasses. Thompson and HilHer ^ experienced similar results in feeding...

The regeneration of functional tissue in osseous defects is a formidable challenge in orthopedic surgery. In the present study, a novel biomimetic composite scaffold, here called nano-hydroxyapatite (HA)/poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) was fabricated using a selective laser sintering technique. The macrostructure, morphology, and mechanical strength of the scaffolds were characterized. Scanning elect...
