A 56 days grow-out experiment with three protein levels (35, 40 and 45%) and three lipid levels (5, 10 and 15%) was conducted to evaluate the optimum protein to lipid ratio for oriental river prawn (Macrobrachium nipponense). Four hundred and five prawns, with mean (± SD) weight of 1.40 ± 0.04 g were distributed in 27 glass aquaria and were fed four times daily. Results showed tha...

background: exercise increases the generation of oxygen free radicals and lipid peroxidation that cause oxidative damage and result in muscle injury. vitamin c and, especially, vitamin e are shown to decrease the exercise-induced increase in the rate of lipid peroxidation. the aim of this study was to study antioxidant vitamins intake in athlete women who participant in sport saloon in two regi...

the concentration of adiponectin, a hormone which is secreted from adipose tissue, is inversely correlated with body fat mass. this hormone has anti inflammatory and anti atherogenic properties. its concentration reduces in metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular diseases. this study reviews the evidence on the relationship between serum adiponectin concentration and lipid profile. in this study ...

objectives: controversial findings exist regarding the association between neonate gender and umbilical cord blood lipid levels. this study aims to compare the levels of lipids and lipoprotein b-100 in the umbilical cord blood of male and female newborns and assess the impact of these factors on neonatal anthropometric measurements. methods: this cross-sectional study was performed on 75 health...

background: lipid peroxidation is known to cause various impairments to sperm cells and may play a major role in the etiology of male infertility. asthenospermia is the main factor of male infertility and has significantly higher level of peroxidation than in normozoospermic males. materials and methods: using thiobarbituric acid (tba) assay procedure, we have determined the level of lipid pero...

background and objective: alleviation of serum glucose level and lipid profile in diabetic patients using herbal medications is of great importance. in the present study, the effect of oral consumption of olive leaves on serum glucose level and lipid profile was investigated. materials and methods: male wistar rats were divided into four groups including control, control under treatment, diabet...
