Serum biochemistry can be used for monitoring changes in the physiological condition of fish and water quality. The aim of this paper was to determine the concentrations of plasma T3 (Thyroid hormone), thyroxin, TSH (Thyroid-stimulating hormone), ALT (Alanine Aminotransferase), AST (Aspartate aminotransferase) and cholesterol of Liza klunzingeri caught on the northern side of the strait of Horm...

The AST/ALT ratio was estimated in 182 dogs infected with Babesia canis. Among these dogs 65 had anaemia and 68 were azotaemic. Student's t test was used to compare means of the AST/ALT ratio in anaemic and non-anaemic dogs, and in azotaemic and non-azotaemic dogs (p < 0.05). The differences in AST/ALT ratio between anaemic (1.52 +/- 1.15) and non-anaemic (1.76 +/- 1.34) dogs were statistically...

In this paper, we investigate broad asting in Mobile Adho NETworks (MANETs). We de ne broad asting as being the pro ess of delivering one pa ket, originated at one node, to (ideally) all other nodes in the MANET. We present spe i problems related to broad asting in MANETs, as well as four broad ast proto ols aimed at providing MANET-wide broad ast. Further, three proto ol-independent modi ation...

interfere with the binding of polyclonal antibodies to the protein. The addition of polyclonal antibodies to cytosolic AST produced complete inhibition of the enzyme activity (5 ). The proposed immunologic method for measuring AST seems to have potential advantages over the conventional enzyme activity assay. In a single liver cell, two types of AST are present: a mitochondrial and a cytosolic ...

BACKGROUND Both ALT/AST ratio reversal (AST/ALT > 1) and prolonged prothrombin time are separately related to hepatic cirrhosis. Ratio reversal means that in normal individuals ALT is more than AST and thus ALT/AST > 1 but with development of cirrhosis AST becomes > ALT and so AST/ALT > 1 or ALT/AST < 1. This study was conducted with the idea that prolonged prothrombin time and reversed (AST/AL...
