the aim of this investigation was to assess the effect of different antioxidants on the motility andmembrane integrity of the ram semen during storage at 5ºc for 0, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hrs after collection anddilution. a total of 57 ejaculates from 12 bakhtiary rams was collected by artificial vagina and were extended1 : 3 with egg yolk-citrate buffer, which was containing one of the following an...

adsorption of bovine serum albumin (bsa) onto calcium hydroxyl apatite (ha), ca10po4(oh)2, has been studied by ultra violet (uv) spectroscopy. the adsorption isotherms of bsa onto the ha surface at 291.7 k and 303.2 k were satisfactorily presented by langmuir equation and the evaluated parameters are reported. the specific surface area of ha has been measured by the bet method. the obtained val...

in this research, effect of bovine serum albumin (bsa) on motility and fertility of indigenous rooster spermatozoa was evaluated using 20 and 48 indigenous roosters and hens, respectively. semen was collected and pooled. in the first experiment, the pooled semen was diluted and divided into four aliquots.the treatments were included the diluted semen without bsa and with 1% bsa; in each group, ...

Lactococcus lactis subsp lactis BSA (L. lactis BSA) was isolated from a commercial fermented product (BSA Food Ingredients, Montreal, Canada) containing mixed bacteria that are used as starter for food fermentation. In order to increase the bacteriocin production by L. lactis BSA, different fermentation conditions were conducted. They included different volumetric combinations of two culture me...

A quantitative method was developed for the determination of proteins in aqueous solution. Under optimal conditions, the linear ranges of calibration curves for the determination of bovine serum albumin (BSA), human serum albumin (HSA) and egg albumin (Alb) were 01.13 μg ml-1, 0-1.17μg ml-1 and 0-1.13μg ml-1, respectively. The detection limits were 15.74 ng ml-1 for BSA, 23.34 ng ml-1 for HSA a...

Naturforsch. 41b, 1170—1177 (1986); received February 20, 1986 Bovine Serum Albumin, Gadolinium Complexes, Contrast Agents for NMR Imaging, Nitroxyls Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) was spin labeled using the active esters 3 and 5 containing a nitroxyl radical to give the spin labeled BSA derivatives 4 and 6...

The aim of the study was to examine the association among advanced glycation end products (AGEs), extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer (EMMPRIN) and matrix metalloproteinase (MMPs), and investigate whether AGEs affect type I collagen (COL-I) through EMMPRIN or MMPs. A co-culture system with the osteoblast-like cells (MC3T3E1) and mouse RAW264.7 cells was employed to examine the effect...

background: active immunization with gonadotropin releasing hormone conjugate (gnrh-bsa) manipulates the fertility axis and thus alters the reproductive cyclicity serum estradiol and progesterone levels. while the application of kamdhenu ark increases the efficacy of gnrh-bsa. objective: this experimental investigation is aimed to evaluate the modulatory effects on estrous cycle serum estradiol...

Results for semi-leptonic form-factors for processes like D→ Klν and the Bethe-Salpeter amplitudes (BSA) for pion and rho mesons are presented. The form-factor data is consistent with previous calculations. We find that the long distance fall-off of BSA for both π and ρ is very well fit by an exponential, but surprisingly the effective mass governing this fall-off is lighter than the pion’s. La...

Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the compare of Conventional (CV) and Direct Cover (DCV) vitrification and effect of sodium selenite(SS) that supplemented with FBS and BSA on reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and glutathione peroxide (GPx) activity of cultured pre-antral follicles derived from vitrified and non-vitrified ovarian tissu...
