The present study was designed to investigate the effect of supplementing of protein additives (PA) in forms of 10% ovine amniotic fluid (OAF), 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and 10% sheep serum (SS), individually to culture media (TCM-199 or RPMI-1640) on in vitro nuclear maturation (IVM) of sheep oocytes. In addition, the effect of seasonal variations on the yield and quality of recovered sheep...

The catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (cAPK) is susceptible to inactivation by a number of thiol-modifying reagents. Inactivation occurs through modification of cysteine 199, which is located near the active site. Because cysteine 199 is reactive at physiological pH, and modification of this site inhibits activity, we hypothesized that cAPK is a likely target for regulation by ...

OBJECTIVE The colposcopic vision guided loop electrosurgical excisional procedure (LEEP) was studied for the effective diagnosis of cervical cancer and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). METHODS A total of 199 patients participated in this study. Individual cases were from gynecologic outpatients at Thammasat University Hospital, Thailand. These had diagnoses for CIN and were selected ...

Abstract There is considerable scientific literature on MOF-based antibacterial textiles, especially with in situ methodologies for their synthesis. On the contrary, ex synthesis of MOFs fabrics has been little explored. Although, latter may have more significant advantages when expectation to scale up process industrially. The present study describes obtained MOF-199 and MOF-UiO-66-NH 2 onto c...

OBJECTIVES The Monti catheterizable channel is used as an integral part of continent bladder reconstruction in children. We have updated our ongoing experience at Riley Children's Hospital with 199 patients. METHODS We identified 199 patients for retrospective review, including all patients for whom a Monti ileovesicostomy was created from January 1997 to August 2004. We assessed the complica...
