Experiments were conducted to determine the relationship between time of infection by Heterodera glycines and soybean growth in the greenhouse and yield of plants grown in the field. Soybean cultivar Essex seedlings growing in the greenhouse were inoculated with H. glycines at 2, 4, or 6 weeks after planting. Seedling growth was inhibited by H. glycines infection at 2 or 4 weeks after planting ...

Objective: Exercise and herbal medicine Berberine are known as anti-inflammatory agents. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of 4-weeks of endurance training and Berberine Chloride (BC) consumption on inflammatory factors and glycemic index in male wistar diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: In an experimental trial, 36 male wistar rats divided into 6 groups of 6 rats including 1) control...

We determined the status of vascular kallikrein in rats with severe hypertension caused by treatment with deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA) and drinking of 1% NaCl for 6 weeks. We assayed active and total kininogenase (kallikrein) activity in the perfusate and in arterial and venous tissue. DOCA-salt rats had higher systolic blood pressure at 6 weeks (214 +/- 5 mm Hg) than rats drinking tap wa...

this experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of different lipid sources and organic zinc supplementation on performance, egg bacterial activity and ovary morphology of laying hens for 10 weeks. with 288 sixty weeks old birds by employing a completely randomized design with factorial arrangement of 3×4 with 12 treatments, 4 replicates and 6 hens each. the factors of interest were 4% lipi...

Background: An efficient, promoted tri-component catalytic reaction between barbituric acid (or N,N-dimethyl barbituric acid), 4-hydroxy coumarin, and a wide range of aryl aldehydes using zinc oxide nanowires (ZnO NWs) to obtain some new 4-hydroxychromenylarylmethyl-6-hydroxypyrimidine-2,4-diones is described. Method: The reactants were successfully condensed ...

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to investigate the temporal modifications in bone mass, bone biomechanical properties and bone morphology in spinal cord injured rats 2, 4 and 6 weeks after a transection. MATERIAL AND METHODS Control animals were randomly distributed into four groups (n = 10 each group): control group (CG) - control animals sacrificed immediately after surgery; spinal c...

This study was conducted to assess the preventive effect of aqueous extract of Berberis integerrima Bge. root (AEBIR) on liver damage and oxidative stress induced by diabetes mellitus in rats. Forty male rats were divided into 5 groups as follows: 1- normal (N); 2- normal + barberry (N+B) (they received barberry root extract for 6 weeks); 3- diabetic (D) (they received Streptozotocin (STZ), 65 ...
