Recently we reported elimination of radioactivity from [14C]heptachlor from body stores of lactating ovines, mainly into excreta rather than milk, contrasting sharply with bovines. To further assess heptachlor metabolism and clearance by ovines, 12 fine-wool wether larabs (41 + 3 kg) housed in metabolism stalls were fed pelleted alfalfa hay (96%) plus molasses (3%) ad libitum and were dosed i.p...

Localized proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (H MRS) became an important tool for investigating brain metabolism non-invasively. In animal models, high field H MRS allows detection of almost 20 metabolites [1-4], also called the neurochemical profile (taurine (Tau), creatine (Cr), phosphocreatine (PCr), phosphocholine (PCho), glycerophosphocholine (GPC), glutamate (Glu), glutamine (Gln), my...

this study was conducted to determine the effect of dietary turmeric rhizome powder (trp) as a natural antioxidant, and soybean oil, canola oil and tallow on lipid metabolism, blood metabolites, immune system, and antioxidant status of broiler chickens before (bhs, 28 d) and after exposure to heat stress (ahs, 42 d). seven hundred and ninety two d-old male arian broilers were randomly allotted ...

Identifying the association between metabolites and diseases will help us understand pathogenesis of diseases, which has great significance in diagnosing treating diseases. However, traditional biometric methods are time consuming expensive. Accordingly, we propose a new metabolite-disease prediction algorithm based on DeepWalk random forest (DWRF), consists following key steps: First, semantic...

Contaminated mineral oil may have been associated with calcaneous osteomyelitis in a newborn. Staphylococcus aureus is viable for 1 month as a suspension in mineral oil.

the lack of authentic standards has limited the quantitative analysis of herbal drugs in biological samples. the present work demonstrated a practicable strategy for the assay of herbs and their metabolites independent of authentic standards. a liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization–mass spectrometry (lc–esi–ms) method for the qualitative and quantitative determination of the metabolites...
