the aims of this study were to compare the promoter sequence of the mannose-binding lectin (cmbl) gene in iranian native and commercial chicken strains; as well as to compare the cmbl gene expression in crossbred and inbred chickens. in total 79 native (western azerbaijan native fowls, wanf) and 49 commercial (arian commercial strain, acs) birds were reared as parents under same management prac...

conclusions we found that purified locally isolated soluble crude antigens of the rh strain of t. gondii from the peritoneal cavity of mice may be one of the most promising antigens for detection of human toxoplasmosis in routine screening. results indigenous elisa was used to examine 100 serum samples containing anti-t. gondii igg, with a sensitivity of 98% (commercial kits: 100%). another 100...

xanthan gum is a microbial polysaccharide of great commercial importance as it has unusual rheological properties in solution and consequent range of applications. in this study, a series of mutants were isolated from xanthomonas campestris ptcc 1473 by ethyl methanesulfonate mutagenesis. the polysaccharide yield of one mutant, xc1473e2, was 30% better than that of the parent strain. it also sh...

With the complexity and amount of information in a wide variety of comparative performance reports in poultry production, making a decision is difficult. This problem is overcomed only when all data can be put into a common unit. For this purpose, five different decision making analysis approaches including  Maximin, Equally likely, Weighted average, Ordered weighted averages and Technique for ...

background : lactobacilli are the well known friendly bacteria for their probiotic activities against pathogens. the inhibitory activity of different strains of lactobacilli either obtained as commercial products or isolated from human feces was investigated against the clinical isolates of pseudomonas aeruginosa. the isolates were selected as the most resistant strains when challenged with ant...

Trichoderma “viride” TNAU is the most widely used biofungicide in India with more than 250 registered commercial formulations being available. We have studied the phylogenetic position of this strain using a molecular marker and determined that this commercial strain is, in fact, a strain of Trichoderma asperelloides, and not T. viride. The implications of these findings on the registration and...

three iranian native strains and three japanese commercial lines of the silkworm bombyx mori were analyzed using amplified fragment length polymorphism (aflp) markers. a set of ten psti/taqi primer combinations amplified a total of 322 bands out of which 251 (%78) were polymorphic. estimates of nei’s gene diversity for all loci in individual strains and commercial lines indicated a higher degre...
