conclusions several previous studies used pcr-rflp to genotype hbv; however, we showed the high risk to obtain atypical profiles, especially in advanced stages of chronic infection, with as results difficulties to genotype the virus. these profiles resulted from the accumulation of mutations during natural course of infection resulting in a modification in restriction sites for enzymes. so, we ...

ABSTRACT The rich genetic diversity and wide adaptation of rice (Oryza sativa L.) to different environments provide fundamental resources for its conservation improvement. analysis canonical correlations can be used increase the efficiency selecting superior genotypes, as several traits are evaluated simultaneously. Thus, this study aimed compare morphoagronomic estimate magnitude association i...

objective: in peripheral blood polymorphonuclear and mononuclear cells nitric oxide (no) could be synthesized by an enzyme called inducible no synthase (inos). inos gene (nos2a) is located on chromosome 17 at position 17q11.2-q12. no is released during inflammatory responses. in the present studies the frequency of nos2a gene polymorphisms and their effects on no production were investigated in...

the aims of this study were to compare the promoter sequence of the mannose-binding lectin (cmbl) gene in iranian native and commercial chicken strains; as well as to compare the cmbl gene expression in crossbred and inbred chickens. in total 79 native (western azerbaijan native fowls, wanf) and 49 commercial (arian commercial strain, acs) birds were reared as parents under same management prac...

Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) is cultivated in temperate climates worldwide to produce sugar. The production of sugar and other plants danger due the world’s increasingly salinized soils. Although different genotypes exist at various ploidy levels, most them are diploid (2X) with 18 chromosomes. majority polyploid have variations, morphologies, anatomy. Diploid especially morphology, physiology...

In this study, the manner of private taxis drivers has been investigated for choosing passenger and destination from a fixed point. Therefore, two models called Multinomial and Nested Logit Models have been utilized. The information gained by scrolling in 2016 is the input data, which are in the format of revealed preference, acquired by the verbal interview in Vanak Square in Tehran (Iran). Ba...

Soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) germplasm, essentially isogenic except for loci controlling male sterility (ms(1)) and nodulation (rj(1)), were developed to study the effects of reproductive development and nitrogen source on certain aspects of photosynthesis. Plants were sampled from flowering (77 days after transplanting) until maturity (150 days after transplanting). With all four genotypes, ...

We conducted a retrospective study to assess pharmacoeconomic outcomes of patients who received a daily dose of micafungin 100 mg or 150 mg to treat candidemia. The once-daily 100-mg dose resulted in clinical and mycological outcomes similar to those achieved with 150 mg daily and succeeded in reducing drug-acquisition costs for treating hospitalized patients with candidemia.
