Thirty six Large White Yorkshire gilts in the age group of 5 months were selected and randomly divided into 6 groups consisting of 6 animals each. Among these, 3 groups were reared under intensive and 3 groups under semi-intensive system of management. In each system group 1 devoid of antioxidants and treated as control, group 2 supplemented with Vitamin E 22IU and group 3 both Vitamin E 22IU a...

We tested the accuracy of the Reflotron System by comparing results given by this system for estimations of glucose, SGOT, SGPT, cholesterol and triglycerides on patients samples which were already analysed on either an autoanalyser HITACHI 705 or manually on CLIN ICON 4010. Reflotron estimations correlated well with both Hitachi and Clinicon estimations and the strips gave reproducible results...

Studies show that inhalation of oil gas vapor may impose serious health risks for individuals exposed to such vapor. The main aim of this study was to determine the effects of diesel oil vapor inhalation on SGOT and SGPT as indices of liver function. Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control animals, and rats that exposed to diesel oil vapor for 1 hour/day, for 2 hours/day and for 3 h...

The incidence of INH-associated liver injury was evaluated in 239 children aged between 9 and 14 years, who were receiving 300 mg INH/day for tuberculosis prophylaxis. Serum SGOT and SGPT levels were determined before INH administration and at 4-weekly intervals thereafter. Levels of both enzymes were raised during the first 3 months of treatment in 18 (7.5%) children, while in 23 (9.6%) childr...

In a previous publication (1) we have described the synthesis and chemical properties of /3-fluoro-oxaloacetic acid. This acid was found to be a potent inhibitor of mitochondriil malic dehydrogenase (1,2). It is probable that fluoro-oxaloacetate inhibits other enzymes which react with oxaloacetate. We have performed further experiments in order to test this hypothesis. As a part of this study t...

Background: There are many reports regarding to effects of Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and stem cell factor (SCF)alone in liver repair .But conflicting data have been reported regarding the role of growth factors such as G-CSF and SCF in the liver regeneration system. Also, there is not such data regarding to effects of co-administration both of G-CSF and SCF in the liver dama...

The glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT) zymogram phenotypes of a series of 15 translocation lines, a chromosome addition line and a chromosome substitution line were determined. In each of the translocation lines a segment of the long arm of Triticum aestivum chromosome 3D has been replaced by a portion of an Agropyron elongatum homoeologue. Evidence was obtained that the products of the ...
