objective(s): the aim of the present study is to determine the effect of chloramphenicol (cap) on rat liver and small intestine. effect of phenobarbital (pb) on cap toxicity was also investigated.   materials and methods:   rats were received cap at doses of 0, 200, 400 and 600 mg/kg. another group was pretreated with 80 mg/kg pb 30 min prior to administration of various doses of cap. the exper...

Based on the latest laboratory test and prospect well data of G layer in south depression of D basin, the source rock、reservoir、cap-rock and preservation forming condition of tight oil and gas within research area is analyzed. The results indicate that the widely distributed dark mudstone of J layer has rather high organic content .IIb and III types are the mainly genetic types of organic matte...

Egg consumption, at more than 65 billion per year in the United States, represents a potentially significant source of exposure to drug residues, particularly if the laying hens are treated with antimicrobial compounds or fed a diet containing medicated feed. Residues resulting from the use of chloramphenicol (CAP) is especially problematic if this compound is not used in accordance with nation...

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR)-spin trapping and flow cytometry were used to identify free radicals generated using argon-cold atmospheric plasma (Ar-CAP) in aqueous solutions and intracellularly in comparison with those generated by X-irradiation. Ar-CAP was generated using a high-voltage power supply unit with low-frequency excitation. The characteristics of Ar-CAP were estimated by va...

Plasma is generated by ionizing gas molecules. Helium (He)-based cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) was generated using a high-voltage power supply with low-frequency excitation (60 Hz at 7 kV) and He flow at 2 l/min. Platinum nanoparticles (Pt-NPs) are potent antioxidants due to their unique ability to scavenge superoxides and peroxides. These features make them useful for the protection against ox...

Gastric cancer (GC) incidence has not declined in Mexico. We assessed whether the intake of capsaicin (CAP), the pungent compound of chili peppers, increases the risk of GC independently of H. pylori positivity (Hp). From 1994 to 1996, a hospital-based case-control study was performed in 3 areas of Mexico; 234 cases of GC and 468 matched controls were enrolled and their diet and other character...

Motivated by the extremely high prices for wholesale electricity in California from May, 2000 to June, 2001, this paper presents the results from four economics experiments using both industry professionals and students who compete to sell electricity in a simulated market. The market structure in the first three experiments parallels the design of the California market over time: a uniform pri...
