The was vague and intermittent no aggravating or alleviating factors. scale about out 10. She denied neither bloody stools nor changes in bowel habits. Physical examination unremarkable. Subsequent colonoscopy showed an elongated “worm-like” polyp overlying normal...

The study was conducted to explore the effect of two herbal drugs, Caesalpinia crista and Nigella sativa in comparison with Oxfendazole in broilers experimentally induced with Ascaridia galli infection .A total of 130 day old broiler chicks were divided into five groups i.e. A, B, C, D and E each group having 26 birds. Group E was kept as negative control, while all other groups were induced wi...

Benzyl methacrylate (BzMA) is polymerized using a poly(lauryl methacrylate) macromolecular chain transfer agent (PLMA macro-CTA) using reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization at 70 °C in n-dodecane. This choice of solvent leads to an efficient dispersion polymerization, with polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) occurring via the growing PBzMA block to produ...

With increasing speed, virulence, and sophistication, self-propagating worms continue to pose a serious threat to the safety of the Internet. To effectively identify and defend against self-propagating worms, a critical task is to characterize a worm along multiple dimensions. Content-based fingerprinting is a well-established dimension for worm characterization by deriving the most representat...

In 1963 Sydney Brenner proposed to study the development of multi-cellular organisms using a genetic approach in a simple animal. He settled on a small, transparent nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans, which develops quickly and is anatomically simple with less than a thousand somatic cells. Almost half a century later there are many more researchers studying C. elegans than there are somatic cell...

The community structure of bacteria associated with the glacier ice worm Mesenchytraeus solifugus was analyzed by amplicon sequencing of 16S rRNA genes and their transcripts. Ice worms were collected from two distinct glaciers in Alaska, Harding Icefield and Byron Glacier, and glacier surfaces were also sampled for comparison. Marked differences were observed in bacterial community structures b...
