background: in this study, two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-de) method was applied to determine and compare the protein spots expressed in the two field isolates of leishmania major and recovered from the patients who were clinically sensitive and resistant to glucantime® treatment. methods: leishmania parasites were isolated from the cutaneous lesions of two cl infected patients in shira...

in order to compare the effects of different weaning strategies on feed intake, structural growth measurement and health, blood metabolites and economic efficiency of young dairy calves, twenty four female holstein calves were used. calves after birth were randomly assigned into one of three weaning strategy as follow: 1) weaning based on feed intake, 2) weaning based on weight gain (30 kg weig...

global warming and climate change have drawn special attention to soil and its potential for stable carbon sequestration. soils are the largest stores of carbon in terrestrial carbon cycle and contain about three times more carbon than vegetation cover and two times more than that of atmosphere. studying the effects of grazing on soil carbon storage is important because of the major role soil o...

in this study, al/gr composites with 5,10,15,20 weight percent of graphite were produced by in-situ powder metallurgy method. the produced powder mixtures were consolidated and sintered at optimum conditions. the resultant composites were solution treated at 495?c and aged at 170?c. the influence of graphite content on the bending strength of composites was studied. the distribution of graphite...

in order to study the mode of genetic control and heritability of morphological characteristics important for the improvement of root weight, sugar yield and white sugar yield in tropical beet, griffing's diallel cross method along with the biplot display of diallel data were applied. nine sugar beet lines including 7112-36, 7173, 474, 452, 261, 436-104, sb-firoz, rr607 and 436 were crosse...

the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of adding different levels of zinc sulfate in semen extender on bovine sperm quality during cryopreservation. semen was collected from 4 holstein bull twice a week and the proper samples were pooled. semen were allocated to four extender treatments consisted of 0, 50, 100, 150 µm of zinc sulfate in 5 replicates and then, were frozen. post-thaw...

this research was conducted to evaluate the effects of synthetic methionine replacement with herbal methionine (hm) on performance, blood biochemical parameters and carcass characteristics in broiler chicken. a total of 280 8-old ross 308 male chicken were randomly assigned to 7 dietary treatments: control, in which 100% methionine requirement was supplied form dl-methionine, and in treatments ...

diabetes is a metabolic disorder specified by hyperglycemia following a defect in insulin secretion, insulin resistance or both. the aim of this study was to examine the effect of high-intensity interval training (hiit) on serum adiponectin levels and insulin resistance of women with type 2 diabetes. for this purpose, 35 overweight women with type 2 diabetes (age range 45-60 years, bmi 25-30 kg...

a convenient and efficient procedure for the synthesis of 14-aryl or alkyl-14h-dibenzo[a,j]xanthenes by condensation of 2-naphthol and aldehydes in the presence of methylimidazolium hydrogensulfate, as a brönsted acidic ionic liquid ([hmim]hso4), is described. both aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes reactedeasily to afford the corresponding 14-aryl or alkyl-14h-dibenzo[a,j]xanthenes in good yield...
