in this research, the magnetite nanoparticles (fe304) were prepared by coprecipitation of fe3+ andfe solution in alkaline medium. two kinds of surfactants, cetyl tri methyl ammonium bromide(ctab) and cetyl pyridinum chloride (cpc) were used in the synthesis. fe304 nanoparticles werecoated with human serum albumin (hsa) and bovine serum albumin (bsa). characteristics ofcoated magnetic nanopartic...

background: inflammatory process has a substantial contribution in the development of anemia in chronic hemodialysis patients. low serum albumin in hemodialysis patients is considered a marker of inflammation. the present longitudinal study aimed to determine the relationship between low baseline serum albumin and future development of anemia. methods: the population of this study consisted of ...

background: progress in the field of biology and biochemistry has led to the discovery of numerous bioactive peptides and proteins in the last few decades. delivery of therapeutic proteins/peptides has received a considerable amount of attention in recent years. methods: in this study, a two-step desolvation method was used to produce biodegradable hydrophilic gelatin nanoparticles (gnp) as a d...

introduction: the purpose of this study was to compare the inhibitory effect of bovine serum albumin (bsa) and hydroxyapatite (ha) on the antibacterial activity of white-colored mta (wmta) against staphylococcus (s.) aureus and streptococcus (s.) mutans after 24 and 72 hours . materials & methods: all materials were prepared according to the manufacturer’s directions immediately before testing....

background and aims: in this lab trial, the effect of scaffold based on human serum albumin (hsa) and hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (ha nps) on mouse spermatogonial cell line (scl) was investigated. materials and methods: to synthesize ha nps, calcium nitrate and diammonium phosphate at ph 13 were gently added and heated at 100 ºc for 24 hours. then serial concentrations of ha nps was separately...

advanced glycation end-products (ages) are formed by non-enzymatic reaction between reducing sugar and protein. ages play important roles in pathogenesis of diabetic, aging complications, endothelial dysfunction and neurological diseases such as the alzheimer’s disease. therefore compounds that prevent the glycation reaction are purported to have therapeutic effect on patients with diabetes and...

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...
