OBJECTIVES The pathogenesis of hepatic fibrosis is accompanied with several biochemical and metabolic abnormalities. To obtain more information about the alteration of biochemical and metabolic parameters during alcoholic liver fibrosis, we have monitored the changes of certain important biochemical compounds in experimentally induced hepatic fibrosis. DESIGN AND METHODS The liver injury was ...

In recent years, prevalence of multidrug resistance (MDR) in Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) has been noticed with high morbidity and mortality. Aim of the present study was to determine the impact of Mr. Trivedi’s biofield treatment on MDR clinical lab isolates (LS) of P. aeruginosa. Five MDR clinical lab isolates (LS 22, LS 23, LS 38, LS 47, and LS 58) of P. aeruginosa were taken and d...

Since the beginning of the nineties, the CEA (the French Atomic Energy Commisssion), has been being developing ultrasonic modeling tools dedicated to NDT simulation and, over the years, integrated in the CIVA software platform. The models allow to compute ultrasonic beams generated by transducers in the inspected components, to conceive phased arrays transducers and to predict echoes arising fr...

Ca2+ ions were transported into the cell by incubation of the erythrocyte suspension with ionophore A23187, a lipophil electric neutral ion complexing substance. Erythrocyte aggregation could be increased twice, when doubling the intracellular Ca2+-ion concentration. Our measurements lead to the suggestion that an increase of the cytoplasmatic Ca2+ ion changes the physical and/or biochemical pr...

Stress response is characterised by biochemical, physiological and behavioural changes in the body. Changes in serum lipids have been reported during examination stress (2, 3, 4). Though emotional stress is known to affect the metabolic rate through alteration in homeostasis (5), yet examination stress has not been implicated as one of the factors influencing metabolic rate which inturn is gove...

This study was carried out to investigate blood biochemical alteration in albino rats after cypermethrin treatment. Nitrogen contents of blood in the albino rats have been influenced by the amount of cypermethrin used for toxicity in the acute (1d) and sub chronic (7,14and21days) treatment in the present investigation. The free amino acid, total protein, urea, urea nitrogen, uric acid and creat...

Background: The study was performed to the alterations in biochemical markers of liver and kidney function oxidative stress indices on sub-acute exposure meloxicam albino rats. Methods: three groups rats, consisting six rats each group. group I were served as control. However, II, III treated with @ 0.2 mg/kg b.wt. 0.6 respectively. Result: Meloxicam administration induced indicated by signific...

Scleractinian corals typically form a robust calcium carbonate skeleton beneath their living tissue. This skeleton, through its trace element composition and isotope ratios, may record environmental conditions of water surrounding the coral animal. While bulk unrecrystallized aragonite skeletons can be used to reconstruct past ocean conditions, that have undergone significant diagenesis altered...

Antimicrobial therapy is frequently associated with the emergence of resistant bacteria a high rate morbidity and mortality worldwide. The present study was aimed at investigating impact neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum (Nd:YAG) laser, static magnetic field (SMF) on cellular growth DNA alteration in some clinical bacterial isolates. Samples from cutaneous wounds were collected by sterile cotton...
