Total mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.1), the sum of apo- and holo-mitochondrial aspartate aminotransferase activity in human serum, was measured by using a proteolytic method: inactivation of cytosolic aspartate aminotransferase with cytosolic aspartate aminotransferase-inactivating protease 401 from Streptomyces violaceochromogenes. Cytosolic aspartate aminotransferase is c...

Vaccination is the best method to prevent spread of infectious diseases, its disadvantages are side effects. Potentially safe DNA, RNA or protein molecules possess antigenic properties, but low-immunogenic and therefore require conjugation with an adjuvant. The aim research was evaluate Chitosan (CS) potency as adjuvant compare effectiveness depending on route drug administration. experiments w...

Levels of C-reactive protein , a well characterised serum acute phase protein were measured in a total of 32 patients admitted to JK hospital with the diagnosis of Malaria (18 vivax malaria and 14 falciparum malaria) . Serum C-reactive protein concentrations were measured daily in all the patients over a seven day period .Percentage parasitemia , platelet count , serum bilirubin , alanine amino...

the activity of aspartate aminotransferase (ast) in human serum has been widely determined as a diagnostic aid in liver disease. in this study, the effect of aluminium on ast isoenzymes in relation to aluminium intoxified patients has been investigated. using gel filtration chromatography technique with sephacryl s-300, mitochondrial aminotransferase (m-ast) and cytosolic aminotransferase (c-as...

The term "liver function tests" generally refers to a group of biochemical tests employed for the detection of liver and/or biliary tract disease.TM Although this term is somewhat of a misnomer, it is firmly entrenched in daily medical language and often referred to in its abbreviated form, "LFTs". Most automated chemistry batteries include the following liver tests: serum albumin, serum total ...

BACKGROUND The role of Helicobacter pylori (HP) in the pathogenesis of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is unclear. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of HP eradication on liver fat content (LFC), liver function tests (LFT), lipid profile, and homeostasis model assessment-IR (HOMA-IR) index in NAFLD. PATIENTS AND METHODS Dyspeptic patients with increased ser...
