Treatment with ethinyl estradiol is known to impair bile formation, bile acid transport and Na,K-ATPase activity, to alter receptor-mediated endocytosis and transcytosis of IgA and asialoorosomucoid and to affect membrane lipid composition and fluidity. Because appropriate sorting and trafficking of asialoorosomucoid requires adequate acidification of endocytic vesicles by a lipid-sensitive ele...

In the present study, cryopreservation of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) embryos was studied using a stepwise cooling protocol. Embryos at heartbeat stage were selected, placed in 15- ml plastic tubes and stored at -2 °C for 1, 7, 14, and 21 days in 2 different cryopreservation solutions: S1 (methanol + dimethyl sulfoxide + sucrose) and S2 (methanol + propylene glycol + sucrose). Embryo viabilit...

Biophysical characteristics of the plasma membrane, such as osmotic sensitivity and water and cryoprotectant permeability are important determinants of the function of spermatozoa after cryopreservation. A series of experiments was conducted with rhesus macaque spermatozoa at 23 degrees C to determine their: (1) cell volume and osmotically inactive fraction of the cell volume; (2) permeability ...

background: ovarian cysts are among the diseases which cause reproductive failure and economic losses in dairy herds. high yelding dairy cattles are suseptable to reproductive failure caused by ovarian cysts, as a result of their exposure to stressful coditions during lactation. objectives: this study aimed to monitor metabolic profile tests in dairy cows with ovarian cysts in comparison with c...

thin bonded films have many applications in antireflection and reflection coating, insulating and conducting films and semiconductor industries. thermal conductivity is one of the most important parameter for power packaging since the thermal resistance of the interconnections is directly related to the heat removal capability and thermal management of the power package. the defects in material...

Abstract Hybrid nanofluid, which is a combination of Propylene Glycol (PG) – Water (H 2 O) admixture and paraffin wax sand, may be utilized as standby for PG blend in solar thermal framework. Objective this article the exploration dissipative flow propylene-glycol water mixture based hybrid nanofluid by sphere with chemical reaction heat source parameters. MATLAB in-built solver bvp4c to exhibi...
