Wilson’s disease (WD) is an inherited autosomal recessive disorder that lead to copper accumulation in the liver, brain, cornea, and other organs [1]. WD is treatable by life-long decoppering therapy with the aim of removing excess copper and preventing re-accumulation. This is accomplished with two main groups of drugs: chelating agents, including d-penicillamine (DPA) and trientine, that prom...

. The paper assesses the treatment of cutaneous fungal infection in young beef cattle caused by Trichophyton verrucosum using orally administered zinc sulphate for 28 d at 2 g per animal per day and subcutaneous application of 2.5 mg/kg levamisole administered three times every 7 d. The study was conducted on animals at the age of 110 to 122 d, which were divided into two experimental groups: g...

This study was conducted to determine the occurrence of zinc and copper resistances in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) from swine and veal calves in a global strain collection. The test population consisted of 476 porcine MRSA isolates from ten European countries, 18 porcine MRSA isolates from Canada and seven MRSA from China, 92 MRSA and 60 methicillin-susceptible S. aureus ...

The present study investigated the biofortification effect of FYM, Zinc and Iron on yield (grain straw q h-1), wheat at harvest. Soil application Two foliar applications (one heading other milking stage) along with 10 t FYM h-1 gave highest grain (53.95 56.95 h-1) (71.86 75.18 for two consecutive years while protein content (12.50 12.63%). Yield straw) significantly increased over control as a ...

---There has been escalation in alcohol abuse with an enormous increase in alcohol-related gastrointestinal tract disorders. The study was conducted to evaluate the role of zinc on intestine of rats under ethanol toxicity. Rats were segregated into four groups: Control, Ethanol treated, Zinc treated and Combined zinc and ethanol treated. 1ml of 30% ethanol was given to rats orally everyday. Zin...

S t e i n b e r g (1935) and L u n d (1953) found that the growth of Aspergillus niger is influenced by copper. O r 1 o v et al. (1968) have further observed that 10.0% solution of copper sulphate increases markedly the yield of citric acid when molasses is employed as substrate. T o m l i n s o n et al (1950) studied the influence of Zn, Fe, Mn and Cu on the production of citric acid and obser...
