The heritabilities of human blood cell characteristics were estimated in a study of 206 pairs of young adult twins, male and female. White cell numbers, indices related to circulating red cell mass (haemoglobin, red cell count, and haematocrit), and platelet numbers and size all appeared to be accounted for by genetic and nonshared environmental influences only. Mean cell volume (of the erythro...

the ph dependence study reveals that the cys 206 sulphydryl group of bovine carbonicanhydrase in the native form is not exposed. during the reaction of 2,2'-dithiobispyridine (2-dtp) with the enzyme, there was no absorbance change recorded. in the presence ofsurfactants, the ph dependence profiles of the apparent second order rate constants, kapp, forthe reaction of 2-dtp with bovine carbonic a...

Propoxur and methyl parathion are nonsystemic insecticide used for the control of various chewing and sucking insects. Exposure to these pesticides may cause genotoxic effects in nontarget organisms including man. In the present set of investigations, mutagenicity of pesticides propoxur and methyl parathion was studied by applying dominant lethal test (DLT) on quinquefasciatus taken as an exper...

A selective electrochemical method for the determination of uric acid was developed by using nano poly cresol red modified glassy carbon electrode. This new material has been characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy, cyclic voltammetry and Differential pulse voltammetry. This modified electrode shows excellent electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidation of uric acid in the presence of ...
