percentages and yields of fat, crude protein (cp), true protein (tp) and non-protein nitrogen (npn) wereassessed in milk of four groups of holstein cows, at early, mid and late lactation (days in milk 20-70, 71-110, 111-150 and 151-210), on a diet rich in concentrates during a hot summer. four milk samples were taken from individual cows at 10-day intervals. milk fat percentages were close to b...

Correct innervation of the main respiratory muscle in mammals, namely the thoracic diaphragm, is a crucial pre-requisite for the functionality of this muscle and the viability of the entire organism. Systemic impairment of Sema3A-Npn-1 (Npn-1 is also known as NRP1) signaling causes excessive branching of phrenic nerves in the diaphragm and into the central tendon region, where the majority of m...

INTRODUCTION Patients with negative initial digital subtraction angiography (DSA) are at significant risk for re-bleeding, which can lead to severe disability and death. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the necessity of repeat DSA in subgroups of patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) with negative initial DSA. METHODS A total of 904 spontaneous SAH patients were admitted to our...

Incubations were carried out with batch cultures of ruminal micro-organisms from sheep to analyse the influence of the N source on in vitro CH4 production. The two substrates were mixtures of maize starch and cellulose in proportions of 75:25 and 25:75 (STAR and CEL substrates, respectively), and the three nitrogen (N) sources were ammonia (NH4 Cl), casein (CA) and isolated soya bean protein (S...

the objective of this study was to identify acinetobacter in a traditional cheese from west azarbaijan, iran, and to study the lipolytic and proteolytic activities of these bacteria in ripening of white brine cheese. acinetobacter is a gram negative bacteria which can be found in different sources as dairy products. lypolysis and proteolysis characteristic of this bacteria and thus its role in ...

The interaction of the polycationic rabbit alveolar macrophage cationic proteins MCP-1 and MCP-2 (or their identical neutrophil equivalents NP-1 and NP-2) with the surface of Pseudomonas aeruginosa was investigated. Both proteins bound avidly to purified lipopolysaccharide, as judged by their ability to competitively displace the probe dansyl polymyxin with 50% inhibition (I50) values of 2 to 3...
