hematological parameters are suitable biomarkers for evaluating the potential risk of the chemicals. the aim of this study was to investigate of acute crude oil exposure on basic physiological functions of persian sturgeon, acipenser persicus. 210 juvenile persian sturgeon (9.4 ± 1g) were supplied by the rajaei fish farm in mazandaran province, iran.  juveniles were exposed to the crude oil (15...

introduction: cyclophosphamide is a chemotherapy drug with several side effects on various organs such as male reproductive system that can cause infertility. in this study, we assessed combined effect of ginger and pumpkin extractson rat testis after cp injection. methods: forty adult male rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: the control group received intraperitoneal injection of isotoni...

the elm leaf beetle xanthogaleruca luteola müller (coleoptera: chrysomelidae), is a serious pest of elm (ulmus spp.) throughout iran. in the present study, lethal and sublethal effects of neem, achook® containing 0.03% azadirachtin, were assessed on mortality, growth, larval weight and feeding deterrence as well as enzymatic and non-enzymatic activities of third instar larvae of the elm leaf be...

conclusions this study showed that ifnβ-1a decreased oxidant impacts in ms patients, but had no influence in improving mitochondrial dysfunction. results in the patients group (30 patients), a significant difference was observed in their measured biochemical factors in comparison to the control group (p = 0.001), however, after six months of using ifnβ-1a, only mda was shown in the main (p = 0....

background: fish have been at high risk of atrazine toxicity. comparative atrazine toxicity on the tissues of clarias gariepinus is scanty. therefore, acute and chronic effects of atrazine on some biochemical parameters in clarias gariepinus were investigated in this study. methods: atrazine toxicity was determined by assessing the responses of glucose, protein, alanine aminotransferase (alt), ...

background: paraquat is nonselective bipyridyl herbicide that induces hepatotoxicity through oxidative stress. vitamin c and chitosan have antioxidant as well as radical scavenger properties and show protective effects against reactive oxygen species (ros). in the present study, hepatoprotective effects of chitosan and vitamin c were evaluated in common carp exposed to paraquat. methods: while ...

The researches included Polish Landrace (PL) breed pigs and Polish Large White (PLW) x PL and PLW x Duroc crossbreds. During the fattening season, blood was collected for biochemical analyses four times. Blood plasma was examined to determine the content of total protein, albumin, creatinine, urea, uric acid, total bilirubin, cholesterol, triglycerides and glucose as well as a level of indicato...
