the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of a combination of latanoprost and pilocarpine onthe intraocular pressure in experimentally glaucomatous rabbits. ocular hypertension was induced in 11conscious rabbits by the oral administration of tap water (70 ml/kg) via an orogastric tube. the study wasconducted in three therapeutic groups to test the effects of latanoprost (group l), p...

introduction : osteon® is an alloplastic material containing 70% hydroxyapatite and 30% β-tcp. calcitonin, a hormone produced by the thyroid gland, not only prevents bone resorption by reducing both the number and the activity of osteoclasts, but also stimulates bone formation. considering the favorable effects of calcitonin on bone formation, we hypothesized that the addition of calcitonin to ...

oxygen is an essential part of the most important metabolic pathways in aerobic organisms. oxygen delivery is merely dependent on blood, rendering blood loss a devastating event. traumatic pre-hospital liver bleeding is a major cause of early trauma deaths in human and animals, with no established therapeutic method yet. increasing intra-abdominal pressure (iap) has been shown to reduce liver b...

a 2-year-old, female, crossbred pet rabbit was found to have a subcutaneous axillary abscess from which staphylococcus lentus was the sole isolate. the s. lentus - an indigenous bacterium in rabbit saliva - probably was introduced into the axillary region during licking of a small wound. due to severe neutropenia, the rabbit had developed a serious infection within a few weeks. marked clinical ...

A laboratory colony of human body lice was experimentally infected by feeding on rabbits made artificially bacteremic with a green fluorescent protein-expressing Bartonella quintana. B. quintana was detected in the gut and feces until death but not in the eggs. The life span of the lice was not modified. The rabbit model should provide valuable clues to the role of lice in the transmission of B...

Investigation of the endoplasmic reticulum requires a methodological background in the solubilization, purification, and structural analysis of membrane proteins. The experience of one laboratory with microsomal proteins over 30 years is summarized in this review. We focus on the isolation and structure of the major proteins of rabbit liver microsomes. The special pitfalls encountered with frag...

Beijing Lord Rabbit is an ancient traditional clay sculpture art in Beijing, China. It important part of China's intangible cultural heritage. famous for its unique image and exquisite craft skills, widely used contemporary Chinese products. Based on culture, this paper expounds the position rabbit products by understanding combination artistic expression form modern design concept, combined wi...

1. A method is described for partial purification of the total aldolase of rabbit brain by ammonium sulphate precipitation followed by fractionation of the aldolase into five electrophoretically distinct forms. 2. The method allows a laboratory-scale preparation of the five aldolases. 3. With the exception of band 3 the fructose 1,6-diphosphate/fructose 1-phosphate activity ratios of the isolat...

Some of the physical and chemical properties of crystalline adenosine triphosphate-creatine transphosphorylase from rabbit muscle (1) have been previously described (2). In 1956, Friedberg reported on the amino acid composition of this enzyme (3). His data, however, were derived from analyses of only two samples hydrolyzed for the same time interval. Preliminary amino acid analyses from this la...

Background: The ability of polyclonal antibodies to react with many epitopes of an antigen makes them valuable reagents in research and diagnosis. The aim of this study was purification of mouse IgG2a and production of polyclonal antibody against purified mouse IgG2a subclass. Materials and Methods: Mouse IgG2a was purified by ProA affinity. Verification method of the purified antibody was S...
