3-Methoxypterostilbene is a naturally occurring stilbene with potential in the treatment of diabetes. The preclinical pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of 3-methoxypterostilbene were evaluated in the present study. The right jugular veins of male Sprague-Dawley rats were cannulated. The rats were dosed 10 mg/kg or 100 mg/kg of 3-methoxypterostilbene intravenously (IV) or orally (PO), respec...

Background: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) such as naphthalene (NAP) are organic pollutants that have spread widely in littoral marine ecosystems. We aimed to study the effect of acute and prolonged exposure to naphthalene (NAP) on plasma cortisol and thyroid levels in mature and immature Liza klunzingeri mulet. Methods: In acute stress experiment, the treatment group received 2μ...

The aim of this study was to compare the effects midazolam-ketamine alone or in combination with dexmedetomidine tramadol a constant rate infusion (CRI) on minimum (MIR) propofol and cardiorespiratory function cats undergoing an ovariohysterectomy (OH). This prospective, randomised, blinded clinical study. Twenty-four healthy female mixed-breed were premedicated ketamine midazolam. Propofol use...

PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy of using combined glucose and fructose (GF) ingestion as a means to stimulate short-term (4 h) postexercise muscle glycogen synthesis compared to glucose only (G). METHODS On two separate occasions, six endurance-trained men performed an exhaustive glycogen-depleting exercise bout followed by a 4-h recovery period. Muscle biopsy samples were obtained from the ...

The study for this research was carried out in Al-Alam district - Salah El-Din Governorate to the effect of phosphate and potassium fertilizers on growth yield (local) beans winter agricultural season 2019-2020. experiment implemented according a R.CBD Randomized Complete Block Design with split plot system, using four levels (0, 65, 80 100 kg P. h-1) 75, 90 105 K. h-1). best significant superi...

The therapeutic efficacy of the fluoroquinolone pefloxacin mesylate was compared with those of cefotaxime and chloramphenicol in a rabbit model of Escherichia coli meningitis. The mean percent penetration (+/- the standard deviation) of pefloxacin (range, 1 to 30 mg/kg per h) into cerebrospinal fluid of infected rabbits was 51.3 +/- 14.0 compared with 11.1 +/- 1.0 for cefotaxime (100 mg/kg per ...

Diazinon is an organophosphate which is extensively used in trade and agriculture. Due to its widespread application, its toxicity is common. Several studies have shown that organophosphates are able to induce oxidative stress by generating free radicals and depletion of endogenous antioxidants. Pomegranate seed oil (PSO) possesses anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. In this study, the e...

1. Simple gastric cannulas were surgically fitted to four pigs, initially of 30 kg live weight, to examine the effects of guar gum on gastric emptying. 2. Four semi-purified high-fat diets based on starch, casein, soya-bean oil and tallow were given to each pig. They contained 0 (control), 20, 40 or 60 g powdered guar gum/kg diet. The meals as fed contained 257 g dry matter (DM)/kg. 3. The cont...

Magnetic interactions may lead to errors in precision mass metrology. An analytical description of such magnetic errors is presented in which the roles of both the volume magnetic susceptibility and permanent magnetization are discussed. The same formalism is then used to describe in detail the calibration and operation of a susceptometer developed at the Bureau International des Poids et Mesur...
