the genus rhodococcus is gram positive bacterium which was classified into the family of nocardiaceae. the organism can be isolates from different sources, with capability to degrade diverse types of pollutant. nowadays, scientists reported a few secondary metabolites which are produced by rhodococci. hence, the present study tried to isolate rhodococci from different soil samples with the capa...

Objective(s): Determination of stages of colon cancer is done by biopsy usually after surgery. Metabolomics is the study of all the metabolites using LC-MS and 1HNMR spectroscopy with chemometric techniques. The stages of colon cancer were detected from patients' sera using 1HNMR. Materials and Methods: Five ml blood was collected from 16 confirmed patients referred for colonoscopy.  One group ...

Microorganisms are important components of soil. Some soil filamentous fungi such asPenicilium produce many bioactive small molecules, or secondary metabolites, that range frombeneficial bioactive compounds to harmful toxins. In this study, the metabolites of threepenicillium species (P. goditanum, P. moldavicum and P. corylophilum) were extracted byadding ethyl acetate to liquid cultures. The ...

The effect of Cotinine, active metabolite of nicotine, on Aβ1-42 neurotoxicity was investigated. Cotinine possesses a longer plasma half-life, lower toxicity and it is a partial agonist of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR). Cotinine prolonged the survival of cortical neurons exposed to Aβ1-42. These results indicated that cotinine has a neuroprotective effect by inhibition of the fo...

Erectile dysfunction (ED) diseases have almost affected 100 million men all over the world. Orally administered phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE 5) inhibitors are the most used pharmaceutical formulations for the treatment of ED. In this study, it is aimed to investigate the metabolomics feature of orally administered vardenafil in rats. To carry out the experimental procedure eight male Wistar albino ...

this experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of different levels of oxidized fat (yellow grease) and copper sulfate on performance, carcass traits, blood metabolites and immune cells of broilers. this study was carried out as a 3 × 2 factorial experiment with 3 levels of oxidized fat (0, 2 and 4%) and 2 levels of copper sulfate (0 and 300 mg/kg) in 6 treatments, 3 replicates and 12 ...
