The result of this study showed that bee bread extract has a protective effect in aluminum induced anemia and it significantly ameliorates hepato-renal toxicity and reduces the elevated CRP level and monocytes and leukocytes counts encountered after aluminum exposure. Aluminum alone caused significant anemia‚ elevation of BUN‚ CRP‚ leukocytes and monocytes counts and liver enzymes‚ ALT and AST‚ and deceased creatinine clearance. Chemical analysis and antioxidant study showed that it contains fat

Enterococcus By Richard Guilford Enterococcus Enterococcus‚ or more appropriately enterococci‚ are a family of bacteria in the division firmicutes (meaning strong skin and referring to the cell wall) and the class bacilli (which refers to its rod like shape). They look just like streptococcus bacteria from physical characteristics alone. In fact‚ members of the genus Enterococcus were classified as Group D Streptococcus until 1984 when genomic DNA analysis showed that a separate genus classification

The Effect Of Enzyme Concentration On Enzyme Activity The pancreatic duct in individuals who have cystic fibrosis frequently becomes blocked‚ reducing or preventing the release of pancreatic enzymes into the small intestine. The aim of this activity is to investigate the effect of a reduction in enzyme concentration on the rate of reaction‚ in this case the breakdown of protein by protease enzymes. Aim – Milk powder contains a white protein called casein. A white suspension of

Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Nasal Colonization and Infection Isolates in a Veterans Affairs Hospital Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) belongs to the genus Staphylococcus. It is Gram-positive‚ cocci shaped anaerobic bacteria that forms clusters and produces catalase‚ which catalyzes hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen. It contains a cell wall structure (including peptidoglycan and teichoic acid) and a low G + C content of DNA between 30-40 mol %. (Bauman‚ R.‚ & Masuoka‚ E. (2015). Microbiology: With diseases

INTRODUCTION: OCCURANCE OF CHROMIUM: Chromium is a heavy metal which is considered as an environmental pollutant (Nafish et al‚ .2012). It is 7th most occurring element on earth and its average concentration in the earth is about 100mg/kg. (Panda and Choudhory‚ .2005). Apart from its importance chromium causing serious hazards for those organisms and plants that are exposed to the chromium in polluted areas of high concentrations. Being highly toxic metal it mainly comes from leather tanning‚ textile

it has a lack of aerobic respiration and engages in anaerobic fermentation. C-diff is from the Clostridiaceae family‚ is motile‚ anaerobic‚ and spore-forming egetative cells are rod shaped‚ pleomorphic‚ and occur in pairs or short chains. It is catalase and superoxide dismutase negative‚ and produces two types of toxins: enterotoxin A and cytotoxin

Minerals What are Food Minerals? * Food minerals are those minerals that begin in the ground or sea. * Enzymes need minerals to build strong healthy life forms‚ whether plant‚ animal or human bodies. * Minerals and enzymes work together to make us look beautiful and feel strong. * Minerals are a major part of every cell and the larger variety we have in our food. Classification Of Minerals * Calcium * Magnesium * Potassium * Sodium * Zinc * Phosphorus

B) Site of synthesis: 1- In pancreas: Synthesis of taurine in the mammalian pancreas occurs through the cysteine sulfinic acid pathway. First‚ in this pathway is oxidation of cysteine sulfahydryl group to sulfonic acid‚ this oxidation is catalyzed by the enzyme cysteine dioxygenase. In turn‚ cysteine sulfonic acid is decarboxylated to hypotaurine by sulfonoalanine decarboxylase. It is not well known whether hypotaurine is then enzymatically or spontaneously oxidized to taurine. 2- in CNS: Biosynthesis

INTRODUCTION Bacillus anthracis has recently become popular as the causative agent of anthrax infections. Belonging to the bacillus species‚ the bacterium is considered‚ along with Bacillus cereus‚ to be of extreme medical importance. Until recently‚ the condition caused by the bacterium was rarely heard of. Although the bacterium is naturally found in the soil‚ its rare occurrences in humans have only been observed in those working with livestock or imported livestock products‚ therefore the

GROWTH PERFORMANCE OF BROILERS FED MICRO-PELLET BOOSTER DIET ON THE FIRST SEVEN DAYS OF BROODING Thea Pamela S. Ponce‚ Veneranda A. Magpantay‚ Edwin S. Luis Abstract One hundred day-old broiler chicks were raised for 35 days to determine their growth performance when fed micro-pellet booster diet on the first week of brooding. Booster mash (BM) and micro pellet booster (MPB) were fed to two separate groups at brooding stage. Birds were fed similar diet thereafter. Production parameters were compared
