An experiment was conducted at the Soil Science Field Laboratory of Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh during November 2011 to March 2012 to evaluate the effect of integrated use of manures and fertilizers on the growth, yield and nutrient uptake by wheat. There were six treatments such as T0 (Control), T1 [STB-CF (HYG)], T2 [CD + STB-CF (HYG)], T3 [PM + STB-CF (HYG)], T4 [COM + STB...

to determine the association between polymorphism of ugt1a1 gene and idiopathic hyperbilirubinemia in iranian neonates. fifty neonates with idiopathic hyperbilirubinemia and serum total bilirubin (stb) more that 15mg/dl and 50 neonates with idiopathic hyperbilirubinemia and serum total bilirubin (stb) less than 15mg/dl enrolled in this study. thymine-adenine (ta)  repeats in the promoter region...

In swine, the most common and severe enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) infections are caused by strains that express K88 (F4)(+) fimbriae, heat-labile enterotoxin (LT), heat-stable enterotoxin b (STb), and enteroaggregative E. coli heat-stable toxin 1. Previous studies based on a design that involved enterotoxin genes cloned into a nontoxigenic fimbriated strain have suggested that LT but...

The present study investigated the effect of long-term administration of the cardioprotective drug stobadine (STB) to dams on selective variables of spontaneous behaviour of their offspring in open field (horizontal and vertical activities, frequency and duration of grooming, and duration of total activity and immobility) tested on day 60 of age. The treatment of dams with STB significantly inc...
