The present study was performed to test the assumption that imbalanced dietary amino acid mixtures must lead to increased heat production (HP). The experiment was based on diets formulated to have a wide range of crude protein (CP) concentrations but a fixed concentration of lysine, formulated to be the first-limiting amino acid. 21 d old male broiler chicks (n = 50) were divided in to 5 groups...

Chlorpromazine (CP), an amphipathic, antipsychotic agent, causes concave membrane bending in red blood cells with formation of stomatocytic shapes by modulation of the phospholipid bilayer. This study was designed to investigate the effects of CP on the shape of bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAEC) and their membranes in confluent monolayers with phase-contrast and transmission electron micro...

AIM The aim of this study was to determine whether the use of transcervical balloon catheter (TCBC) for induction of labor (IOL) is a risk factor for cerebral palsy (CP) associated with umbilical cord prolapse (UCP-CP) in singleton pregnancies with cephalic presentation. MATERIAL AND METHODS Among all 102 infants with CP who were preliminarily determined as caused by antenatal and/or intrapar...

The growing number of notifications for child pornography (CP) possession constitutes a capacity problem for police forces entrusted with the investigation of these offenses. Notifications of CP offenses in which the investigation reveals concurrent direct victimization, in the form of contact offenses, grooming, online offending, or the production of CP material, form a potential target group ...

OBJECTIVES Genetic mutations and polymorphisms have been correlated with chronic pancreatitis (CP). This study aims to investigate the association of genetic variants of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) and serine protease inhibitor Kazal type 1 (SPINK-1) genes and Cathepsin B gene polymorphisms with CP and to associate genetic backgrounds with clinical phenotypes. M...

Efficacy of combined acid-heat treatments to protect crude protein (CP) against ruminal degradation has not been extensively researched. Four in vitro trials (Daisy technology) with orthophosphoric and malic acids were performed to examine effects on protection of sunflower meal protein. In Trial 1, effects of the solution volume for adding two doses of orthophosphoric acid (0.4 and 1.2 eq/kg s...

Two fast and simple methods for porcine haptoglobin (Hp) and ceruloplasmin (Cp) purification are described in this paper. Hp was purified by ammonium sulphate fractionation and a FPLC Superdex-200 gel chromatography. The protein obtained showed two bands with a M r (molecular mass) of about 44 kDa and 12.9 kDa corresponding to heavy (β) and light (α) chains of Hp respectively, on sodium dodecyl...

We study the production and decay of a coupled system of mixed neutral MSSM Higgs bosons in exclusive double-diffractive processes at the LHC, including non-vanishing CP phases in the soft supersymmetry-breaking gaugino masses and third-generation trilinear squark couplings. The three neutral Higgs bosons are naturally nearly degenerate, for large values of tan β, when the charged Higgs boson w...

We investigated the incidences of febrile neutropenia (FN) and related complications in elderly (> or =65 years) breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy supported by pegfilgrastim primary prophylaxis (PP; n=150) or current practice (CP) neutropenia management (n=104) in a subanalysis of NeuCuP (Neulasta) vs. current practice neutropenia management). Studies involving regimens with moderat...
