Sperm morphometry is a part of the semen analysis based on CASA technology and has shown a big role in the prediction of male fertility. This analysis implies the use of stain techniques, although it has been shown that staining can make dramatic changes in the cell morphometry in different species. The aim of the present work was to evaluate the differences in sperm morphometry in Alpaca, intr...

objective it has previously been shown that prenatal maternal administration of boswellia serrata gum resin (frankincense) improved learning and memory performance associated with an increase in the size of neuronal bodies in ca3 (cornu ammonis) of hippocampus. continuing the previous work, a morphometric study was designed on ca3 field to examine precisely the effect of prenatal administration...

wide variety of timings and techniques has been used based on the housing, production, availability of requirements etc. this current study was done for a morphologic evaluation of the cow's digit in different trimming times. a dairy herd with 2200 milking cow, free stalls barns, average daily production of 36 liters per cow was selected. forty cows were assigned to four groups based on hoof tr...

introduction: voxel based morphometry is a type of statistical parametric mapping that can be used to investigate the effect of diseases such as epilepsy, alzheimer's disease and parkinson's disease or other agent such as skills on brain structure (white matter, gray matter and cerebrospinal fluid). the aim of this study is evaluate the effectiveness of this method in detection of dif...

In 2 studies, a method of linear morphometry was applied to regulatory developmental neurotoxicity studies in the rat. The first study involved the development of the brain during postnatal days (PNDs) 7-63, and the second involved the effects of 8 mg/kg i.p. trimethyltin chloride (TMT) to rats at PND 8, with morphometry performed at PNDs 12 and 24. The results of the TMT linear morphometry wer...

We investigated the reproducibility of a semiautomated method (computerized with manual intervention) for nerve morphometry (counting and measuring myelinated fibers) between three observers with different levels of expertise and experience with the method. Comparisons between automatic (fully computerized) and semiautomated morphometric methods performed by the same computer software using the...

hottentotta is one of the most widely distributed genera of the family buthidae, with species present throughout africa, the arabian peninsula, and in asia to pakistan and india. recently, kovarik (2007) revised genus of hottentotta in the world and reported 29 different species-group name in the genus of hottentotta. hottentotta is one of the six medical important scorpions of iran that distri...
