Administration of mercuric chloride (HgCl2; 5.0 mg/kg body weight) to male Swiss albino-mice resulted in significantly higher levels of testicular acid phosphatase (ACP) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activities as compared to control. In combination group where S. fusiformis (800 mg/kg body weight) was given before and after HgCl2 treatment, the mercury induced toxicity reduced in terms of dec...

Objective: To explore and summarize the effect of sirolimus on ischemic-type biliary lesions (ITBL) after liver transplantation. Methods: A retrospective study was carried out on 52 patients using sirolimus for biliary complications after liver transplantation from 2004 to 2016 in our hospital. Serum alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), total bilirubin, glutamyl endopeptida...

Pterocarpus marsupium (Family: Leguminoceae) is widely used in ‘Ayurveda’ as ‘Rasayana’ for the management of various metabolic disorders including hyperglycemia. Treatment of diabetic rats with Pterocarpus marsupium methanol extract (PMMtE, 300 mg/kg b.w./day) for 7 and 14 days showed normalization of streptozotocin-distressed serum glucose. At longer duration, PMMtE exerted a protective effec...

The aim of the present study was to investigate effect antihistamines(Chlorpheneramineand Fexofenadine) on (alkaline phosphatase, aspartate amino transpherase and alanine transferase) in tissue fertilized hens eggs embryos as indicator damage. injection hen's with antihistamines Fexofenadine at 12th day incubation doses (0,5,0,1mg/ egginto air sell)after 24 hour treatment induce significantly d...

Hepatitis in dogs could be due to infectious, toxic or metabolic causes. Among infectious causes, leptospira, canine adenovirus (CAV 1) and babesia are responsible at varying levels, depending on the local geo-climatic conditions. This study, conducted 40 with clinical signs of hepatitis Thrissur, Kerala, revealed occurrence 2.5 per cent (1/40) for CAV 1, 20 (8/40) leptospirosis 22.5 (9/40) bab...

Currently, there are no complete parameters established for serum biochemistry and hematology for the determination of health status of rescued common palm civets (Paradoxurus hermaphroditus). In this study, blood samples were obtained from 18 adults and 15 juvenile civets caught on Singapore Main Island. Significant age-related differences (P<0.05) were noted in the hemoglobin, erythrocyte cou...

In this study, alterations in glucose, blood enzymes (alkaline phosphatase (ALP), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST)) and serum ion (P, Mg, Cl, Ca, Fe) levels were investigated in Tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus), which were semi-statically exposed to different lead concentrations in vivo. The fish were exposed to low (0.5 mg/L), medium (2...
