The monomeric aluminium hydrazide H10 C5 NN(AltBu2 )Ad (4; Ad=adamantyl, NC5 H10 =piperidinyl) was obtained in high yield by hydroalumination of the corresponding hydrazone derivative 1. Compound 4 has a strained AlN2 heterocycle formed by a donor-acceptor bond between the β-nitrogen atom of the hydrazide group and the aluminium atom. Opening of this bond resulted in the formation of an activ...

Neospora caninum and Toxoplasma gondii are closely related intracellular protozoan parasites associated with bovine and ovine abortion respectively. Little is known about the extent of Neospora/Toxoplasma co-infection in naturally infected populations of animals. Using nested PCR techniques, based on primers from the Nc5 region of N. caninum and SAG1 for T. gondii, the prevalence of N. caninum ...

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a common human herpesvirus. Infection with EBV is associated with several human malignancies in which the virus expresses a set of latent proteins, among which is latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1). LMP1 is able to transform numerous cell types and is considered the main oncogenic protein of EBV. The mechanism of action is based on mimicry of activated members of the t...

We report the development of a real-time PCR assay for the quantitative detection of Neospora caninum in infected host tissues. The assay uses the double-stranded DNA-binding dye SYBR Green I to continuously monitor product formation. Oligonucleotide primers were designed to amplify a 76-bp DNA fragment corresponding to the Nc5 sequence of N. caninum. A similar method was developed to quantify ...

The objective of this study was to measure performance of young broiler chickens fed three varieties of high-oil corn (HOC 1, 2, and 3) compared with eight varieties of normal corn (NC). HOC varieties contained about 80% more oil than NC (average crude fat; 6.71% vs 3.72%) and about 29% more protein (average CP; 9.54% vs 7.38%). Each experimental diet was formulated with the same amount (55.205...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the yield, nutrient profile and in vitro digestibility new BMR mutant lines sorghum Indonesia. These were GH2.1, GH2.2, GH2.3, GH4.1, GH4.2, GH4.3 GH4.4. One line (CTY) two national varieties (Super 1 Bioguma) also evaluated as controls. In rumen fermentation measured using Ankom Daisy Fermenter Hohenheim gas test methods, respectively. measurement co...

The present study provides new insight into valuable information on the diverse structure of anisakid population, discusses limited species richness, and also relationship with other closely diversity-related taxa in NCBI databases Epinephelus diacanthus coioides fish. fishing area consists various locations Arabian Gulf. A total 69 E.coioides E. were examined, (n= 48) infected. Larval stages (...
