She denied any precipitating factors reported no improvement use topical clobetasol propionate. Notably, mother had similar rash, which also developed in 30s continued progress over time. Physical examination revealed bilat...

Echinochloa is a major weed that grows almost everywhere in farmed land. This high prevalence results from its high adaptability to various water conditions, including upland and paddy fields, and its ability to grow in a wide range of climates, ranging from tropical to temperate regions. Three Echinochloa crus-galli accessions (EC-SNU1, EC-SNU2, and EC-SNU3) collected in Korea have shown diver...

OBJECTIVES The current study aimed at exploring the secondary metabolites content of Erythrina crista-galli aqueous methanol extract and assessing its phytoestrogenic and cytoprotective activities. METHODS Isolation of the compounds was carried out using conventional chromatographic techniques. The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated based on the UV, NMR spectral data along w...

Bioherbicides are naturally originated products posing alternatives to synthetic herbicides for weed control. The objective of this study was evaluate the efficacy pelargonic acid and microencapsulated caraway essential oil on barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) P.Beauv.) johnsongrass (Sorghum halepense Pers.). Two separate pot experiments were conducted at Agricultural University Athens...

1. Pullets were given a control diet or a diet supplemented with a non-starch-polysaccharide hydrolysing enzyme preparation (NSP-enzyme) from weeks 6 to 14 of age to induce differences in the viscosity of the small intestinal ingesta. Half of each feeding group (n = 25) was infected with 250 embryonated Ascaridia galli eggs at an age of 6 weeks. 2. At 14 weeks of age, before the pullets were sl...

The enteric nematode parasite Ascaridia galli modulate the immune system, of the hosts and eventually leads to malnutrition in the chicks which eventually results in the decreased return of products derived from poultry. The accurate interpretation of avian plasma proteins and the dramatic changes in protein fraction are important events in several diseases and may help in procuring a diagnosis...
