In order to determine the involvement of nitric oxide in the pathogenesis of coccidiosis induced by Eimeria, 30 chickens were challenged with mixed sporulated oocysts of four species of Eimeria (E. acervulina, E. maxima, E. necatrix, and E. tenella) at 26 days of age. There was an increasing of oocyst shedding in the infected birds at 6, 10 and 14 days post-infection. Histopathological examinat...

Acetaminophen is a commonly used analgesic, available without prescription. Several of its metabolites have heretofore been isolated from physiologic fluids and analytically characterized. In general, the separation methods are complicated, usually requiring extensive sample pretreatment, and do not measure the individual conjugated metabolites. High-resolution anionexchange separation of urina...

In drug invention and early disease prediction of lung cancer, metabolomic biomarker detection is very important. Mortality rate can be decreased, if cancer is predicted at the earlier stage. Recent diagnostic techniques for lung cancer are not prognosis diagnostic techniques. However, if we know the name of the metabolites, whose intensity levels are considerably changing between cancer subjec...

Invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) is the most common type of breast cancer and the leading cause of breast cancer related mortality. In the present study, metabolomic profiles of 72 tissue samples and 146 serum samples were analysed using targeted liquid chromatography multiple reaction monitoring mass spectrometry (LC-MRM/MS) and untargeted gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS) approaches...

Investigating the interference of danazol in testosterone radioimmunoassays, we measured serum testosterone concentrations in the serum of women receiving danazol, with three testosterone radioimmunoassay kits. All of these showed positive interference by danazol or its metabolites (or both). Values for testosterone obtained with two of the methods (Diagnostic Products Corp. and Farmos Diagnost...

AIM To analyze the serum metabolites in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) showing dampness syndrome and patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) showing dampness syndrome and to seek the substance that serves as the underlying basis of dampness syndrome in "same syndromes in different diseases." Methods. Metabolic spectrum by GC-MS was performed using serum samples from 29 patients wi...

In the present study we investigated the metabolic conversion of cyanidin glycosides in human subjects using solid-phase extraction,HPLC-diode array detector, MS, GC, and enzymic techniques. Volunteers consumed approximately 20 g chokeberry extract containing 1.3 g cyanidin 3-glycosides (899 mg cyanidin 3-galactoside, 321 mg cyanidin 3-arabinoside, 51 mg cyanidin 3-xyloside and 50 mg cyanidin 3...

BACKGROUND Indoxyl sulfate and p-cresyl sulfate are unique microbial co-metabolites. Both co-metabolites have been involved in the pathogenesis of accelerated cardiovascular disease and renal disease progression. Available evidence suggests that indoxyl sulfate and p-cresyl sulfate may be considered candidate biomarkers of the human enterotype and may help to explain the link between diet and c...

Feeding cum growth trial was conducted on male Barbari goats to study the growth, blood metabolites, antioxidant and coccidial egg count feeding of Maize silage having Moringa leaves. Eighteen (Aged about 3 months Avg B.Wt. 9.53±0.42 kg) were divided in completely randomized design into (CRD) three groups six each. Control group (Gr C) fed with concentrate pellet, green gram straw ad lib. Treat...
