To assess the possibility of selective disintegration and reduction overgrinding hard-to-reproduce ores, optical microscopic X-ray microtomographic studies were carried out quantitative characteristics morphological parameters disseminated rich cuprous ore samples from Norilsk-type Oktyabrsky deposit identified. Among most informative are area, perimeter, edge roughness, sphericity, elongation ...

The relationships between sagitta otolith morphology and fish size were examined for common carp in the Southern Caspian Sea and also the aging of different length groups were determined. Statistical tests to examine correlation between left and right otoliths dimensions were carried out and no statistically significant difference between them was found. The biggest otolith had 0.032g weight be...

Background: Doxorubicin (DOX), a widely used antineoplastic compound, is associated with testicular damage and infertility. In this study, we intended to determine the possible preventive effects of simvastatin (SIM), a lipid lowering agent with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, on testicular morphometric-stereological changes due to DOX treatment in mice. Materials and Methods: Mal...

This study was intended to investigate some aspects of the morphometric characteristics of the neurocranium in domestic cat (Felis catus) of Bangladesh. Twenty adult domestic cat including 10 males and 10 female were euthanized using diazepam (@ 20 mg/kg) and their skulls were macerated to give morphometric parameters. Student t-test with level of significance set at 5% (p < 0.05) was used to a...

Changes in nuclear and nucleolar morphometric parameters were investigated by image analysis procedures in human breast MCF-10F epithelial cells expressing different stages of the tumourigenic progression after benzo[a]pyrene (BP) transformation (BP1, BP1-E, and BP1-E1 cell lines), and additionally transfected with the c-Ha-ras oncogene (BP1-Tras cell line). Nuclear pleomorphism was evident in ...
