This study was designed to investigate the hepatotoxicity of ranitidine treatment in dose levels of 10, 30, and 50 mg/kg b.wt. for 3 weeks period in male rats. The results showed some adverse changes in rats treated with either 10 or 30 mg/kg. Treatment with dose of 50 mg/kg produced marked increase in the activity of both acid phosphatase in liver and aspartate aminotransferase in serum and li...

The activity of aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase and lactate dehydrogenase, total protein, albumin and cholesterol levels were determined in the blood serum of Japanese quails infected with coccidia and treated with Baycox (active ingredient: toltrazuril). Lower levels of AST and ALT activity were noted in treated birds regardless of the applied Baycox dose. The biochemical ...

Currently no reports are available from Egypt regarding occupational exposure to nickel and its effects on the liver. The aim of this study was to assess the liver function of workers occupationally exposed to nickel. Standard liver function tests were applied to blood samples from 25 nickel-plating workers in Damietta, Egypt and 30 administrative workers as a reference group. Levels of urine n...

This study was conducted to determine the effect of sex and age on serum biochemistry parameters of turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo ). Forty healthy turkeys of three different age groups (4-8weeks old, 12-20weeks old and adults) were used. Statistical comparisons were made for differences in values between male and females and among different ages. Female turkeys had significantly (p<0.05) higher ...
