objective(s): there are several scolicidal agents for inactivation of hydatid cyst protoscolices during surgery, but most of them are associated with adverse side effects such as sclerosing cholangitis and liver necrosis. the present study was aimed to evaluate scolicidal effects of various extracts of nigella sativa seeds againstprotoscoleces of hydatid cyst in an in vitro model. materials and...

This study was designed to compare the effectiveness of different activation treatments for activation of in vitro matured oocytes and their developmental potency in mCR2aa medium so as to obtain maximum number of embryos. A total of 1090 cumulus oocyte complexes (COC’s) were collected from 480 ovaries. In vitro matured oocytes were randomly divided into four groups. Group 1 in vitro matured oo...

In the present work, B-ZSM-5 zeolite membranes were synthesized on porous tubular α-alumina supports by several subsequence in situ crystallization hydrothermal treatments. The TiO2- Bohmite and ɣ- alumina intermediate layers were applied to improve the lattice matching between zeolite layer and the support. The uniform membrane intermediate layers with low permeation resistance were...

this blinded, randomized experimental study was designed to evaluate the analgesic effects of adding epinephrine or xylazine to lidocaine solution for brachial plexus block (bpb) in sheep. nine healthy, fat-tailed female lambs (26.6 ± 1.5 kg) were randomly allocated into three groups: lidocaine 2%, 5 mg kg-1 (lid, n = 6), lidocaine (5 mg kg-1) with epinephrine 5 µg ml-1 (lidep, n = 6) or lidoca...
