background: polycystic ovarian syndrome (pcos) is one of the most common endocrine disorders which cause anovulatory infertility and hyperandrogenism in young women. the common feature in pcos women is increased ovarian androgen secretion which can effect on the prevalence of miscarriage rate. objective: the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of pcos patient's serum on in vitro dev...

objective: to compare the pregnancy outcomes achieved by in vitro fertilization (ivf) between minimal stimulation and conventional antagonist protocols in poor ovarian responders (pors). materials and methods: in this randomized controlled trial, 77 pors undergoing ivf were selected and divided into two groups. first group was the minimal stimulation group (n = 42) receiving 100 mg/day clomiphe...

two experiments were conducted to evaluate the crude protein fractionation, in vitro gas production and the biological effects of tannins in alfalfa silage treated with different levels of pistachio by-products (pb) extract. pb was soaked in water with a ratio of 1:5 (w/v) for 12 h. after filtering and concentrating, the crude extract was added to fresh alfalfa to a final concentration of 1%, 2...

this study aimed at determining the physico-morphological attributes, in vitrofertilityand their interrelationships in semen of sahiwal bulls. semen samples werecollected weekly for 6 weeks from ten mature sahiwal bulls divided randomly into 5 groups. the mean (±sem) of ejaculate volume (ml), mass activity (score 0-5), progressive sperm motility (%), sperm concentration (106/ml), live sperm (%)...

the objective of the study was to compare pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters of gliclazide after administration of immediate (ir) and modified release (mr) tablets. the experiment included rats with both normoglyceamia and streptozocin (stz)-induced hyperglyceamia. several mr formulations were designed and in vitro drug release profile was assessed by a dissolution test. for the fur...

novel analogues of n-piperazinyl fluoroquinolones were prepared and evaluated against a panel of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, to study the effect of introducing bulky anthracene and phenanthrene moieties on the antibacterial effects of norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin and gatifloxacin. although most of the novel synthesized compounds had lower antibacterial effects, some derivatives show...
