Background: Therapeutic and diagnosis properties of radioactive gold nanoparticle (198-AuNPs) cause them to be suitable for detection and treatment of tumors.Objective: Electrical and optical properties of PEG-198AuNPs were examined in this paper. Polyethylene Glycol (PEG)-198 AuNPs can be used for treatment and diagnosis of small intestine tumors.Methods: Wireless fluorescence capsule endoscop...

The nutritive and anti-nutritive components of raw Detarium microcarpum seed meals (DSM), and its’ impact on performance and blood constituents were investigated in broilers. Day-old broilers (n=225) were randomly assigned to five treatments at graded levels of 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20% DSM in a completely randomized design. Feed and water were given ad libitum till56 days. The analyzed DSM containe...

background: it is believed that environmental and genetic factors may be responsible for autism. methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (mthfr) and its gene polymorphisms have been shown to be implicated as risk factors in autism. objectives: to analyze mthfr c677t polymorphism (rs1801133) in autistic patients. materials and methods: this study was carried out in 2014 and 2015 in northern iran. on...

The in vitro activities of five new quinoline-carboxylic acids against 2 reference strains and 45 clinical isolates of Chlamydia trachomatis of genital origin were compared with the activities of minocycline and doxycycline. Ofloxacin was the third most active agent (after the two tetracyclines), followed by ciprofloxacin, NY-198, and AM-833.

The in vitro activities of three newly developed quinolone drugs (T-3262, NY-198, and fleroxacin [AM-833; RO 23-6240]) against 10 strains of clinically isolated Chlamydia trachomatis were assessed and compared with those of other quinolones and minocycline. T-3262 (MIC for 90% of isolates tested, 0.1 microgram/ml) was the most active of the quinolones. The NY-198 and fleroxacin MICs for 90% of ...

Introduction: The Chesapeake Bay impact structure, 35 Myr old and 85 km in diameter, is one of the largest and best preserved impact structures on Earth [1]. The structure was drilled in the central part at Eyreville in 2005-2006 during an ICDP-USGS drilling project. Three drill cores (Eyreville A, B, and C), intersecting the impact structure to a total depth of 1766 m, were recovered within th...
