Objective(s): Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) are widely used in commercial food additives and cosmetics worldwide. Uptake of these nanoparticulate into humans by different routes and may exhibit potential side effects, lags behind the rapid development of nanotechnology. Thus, the present study designed to evaluate the toxic effect of mixed rutile and anatase TiO2 NPs on serum bioc...

  This study was done to investigate of some hematological and biochemical factors of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss ) fry in west of Mazandaran in Iran. About 50 pools of blood samples from diseased fry were collected within 30 months from November 2002 till March 2005 from three hatchery farms in western part of Mazanderan province. In addition 30 pools of blood samples as control group w...

conclusions salivary free and total sialic acid, and total protein were higher in the paan consumers compared to non-consumers. due to the carcinogenic effect of smokeless tobacco, measurement of these parameters in saliva may be useful in early detection of oral cancer. results the concentration of salivary free sialic acid (23.21 ± 18.98 mg/l) was significantly increased in paan consumers. th...

a total of 65 pollen types were identified from two years atmospheric pollen survey in the environmental conditions of south assam. out of them, eight pollen types viz., acacia auriculiformis, amaranthus spinosus, cassia alata, cleome gynandra, cocos nucifera, imperata cylindrica, ricinus communis and trewia nudiflora, were selected for biochemical studies on the basis of their dominance in the...

background: paraquat is a non-selective contact herbicide, widely used to control weeds in agriculture farms and aquatic plants in surface waters. paraquat can have adverse effects on the health of aquatic organisms. the aim of this study was to detect the alterations in the blood biochemical parameters of common carp exposed to sub-lethal concentrations of commercial formulations of paraquat. ...
