background: obesity is caused by several factors while sedentary lifestyle and excessive energy intake are the most important ones. obesity could be due to abnormal calcium metabolism, and a high calcium intake may prevent obesity. studying serum calcium level, albumin, and triglyceride concentrations, we searched for probable correlation between serum calcium level and anthropometric data of t...

background: oocyte maturation and subsequent in vitro production (ivp) of embryos are affected by diverse groups of chemicals in maturation medium which are needed for successful mammalian oocyte maturation during which the dramatic cytoplasmic and nuclear reprogramming events take place. this study was designed to evaluate the effects of protein source (fetal bovine serum, fbs, and bovine seru...

conclusions the prepared antibody can be used for the development of an elisa kit to assay afm1 in milk and other biological fluids. background aflatoxins are the most extensively studied group of mycotoxins produced by molds, especially the aspergillus group, which are highly toxic to animals and humans. objectives since immunoassay is a simple and rapid method for the analysis of many toxic s...

A comparative study of the ligand-binding properties of human serum albumin was performed by the technique of affinity chromatography with the protein attached to immobilized Cibacron Blue F3GA (Blue Sepharose), or covalently immobilized on Sepharose. The binding strength of octanoate, decanoate and dodecanoate is much weaker when human serum albumin is attached to immobilized Cibacron Blue, in...

Human Serum albumin as well as other biological products prepared by blood fractionation for clinical purposes, was found to contain different amount of aluminum in different commercially available human albumin solutions. It has been reported that interaction of chemicals with the container material can occur during plasma collection, manufacture and storage, so aluminum is introduced into alb...
