The Sulawesi black-crested macaque (Macaca nigra) is an endemic primate of North that categorized as critically endangered (IUCN 2015). Endoparasite contributes to the decline M.nigra. Therefore, this study aims determine prevalence endoparasites in (M. nigra). We collected 80 fresh fecal samples representing all sex from two habituated groups. analyzed them using direct examination technique (...

A continuous compact membrane bioreactor consisted of ceramic-supported graphene oxide (CSGoM) was implemented for the first time anaerobic biodecolorization monoazo Acid Orange 7 (AO7), diazo Reactive Black 5 (RB5), and triazo Direct Blue 71 (DB71) solutions, showing excellent decolorization potential. The prepared by vacuum filtration various solutions using a UF ceramic flat element. efficie...

We report the design and characterization of a metal ion-imidazole self-assembled monolayer on a gold electrode. The resultant monolayer is well-suited for direct immobilization of histidine and methylene blue-modified peptides.

OBJECTIVES Human enterovirus 71 (EV-71), a member of the Enterovirus genus, constitutes a major public health issue in the Asia-Pacific region, where it is associated with several severe neurological complications. There is currently no effective vaccine or antiviral against EV-71. The aim of this study was to determine whether the six amino acid peptide LVLQTM, which was previously shown to in...

Considerable increase in cancer deaths has been observed since 1995, after when the tenth version of the international classification of disease (ICD) was introduced in Japan according with the revision of a death certificate form at the same time. We assessed the contributing factors for this unnatural fluctuation, using a population-based cancer registry data as a model. All deaths of the pre...

in medicine, patent blue violet (pbv) is utilized for staining lymphatic vessels in sentinel lymph node (sln) surgery. moreover, pbv (also called e131 ) is used as food additive. we report on a 51-year-old non-atopic female with early breast cancer, who was scheduled for sln excision and experienced an intra-operative anaphylactic reaction. in diagnostics the skin prick test (spt) was positive ...

introduction: development of brain edema following focal cerebral ischemia exacerbates primary ischemic injury. blood brain barrier (bbb) opening is an important part of edema named as vasogenic brain edema. in this study, quantitative alterations of bbb permeability is experimentally evaluated using transient focal cerebral ischemia in the rat. methods: two groups of male rats (ischemic and sh...

STUDY OBJECTIVES Individual differences in sleep timing have been widely recognized and are of particular relevance in adolescents and young adults who often show mild to severely delayed sleep. The biological mechanisms underlying the between-subject variance remain to be determined. Recent human genetics studies showed an association between sleep timing and melanopsin gene variation, but sup...
