Capsicum annuum is widely cultivated throughout the world, more specifically in the tropical and sub-tropical regions. The fruits are rich in vitamin, especially in vitamins A and C. It is a very important and indispensable item in every kitchen for its...

ABSTRACT In the current era of evolutionary biology several species have undergone change in their genetic code distribution. Here a very simple way follows to describe how a species has gone under mutation at genetic level. The idea implemented on the species Euplotes with the help of comparative genomics analysis and some techniques like Clustal X and Phylip package. The purpose of analysis to find out the number of UGA codon in many Euplotes species and generate a phylogenetic tree with...

Due to high reactivity and exceptional adhesive characteristics of poly (alkyl α-cyanoacrylate), in recent years, alkyl α-cyanoacrylate monomers become more and more popular and have been widely used in various aspects of daily life. The α-cyanoacrylates with short alkyl chains are usually used as glue for repairing and do-it-yourself activities [1] while longer alkyl chain α-cyanoacrylates are commonly employed in biomedical field due to their biocompatible and...

Along with pulmonary tuberculosis now extrapulmoanary variety continues to be a major health problem in our country is emerging from the shadows of its senior cousin. Diagnosis of EPTB has always been a challenge..The aims of the present study was to detect the acid fast bacilli by zeihl neelsen and positive samples were confirmed by fluorescent staining from various unsuspected extrapulmonary specimens at our hospital,and to investigate their demographic characteristics. Aims: (1) To detect...

Background: An antibiotic is a substance or compounds used to treat infection Caused by micro-organisms including fungi and protozoa, inappropriate and indiscriminate use of antimicrobial agents can potentially have a number of problems. The emergence of anti microbial resistant bacteria, an increased number of patients experiencing adverse drug events, and increase drug-related cost have been documented. Objective: This study was conducted with the objective of studying the pattern of...

Fascioliasis is a helminthic disease caused by Fasciola Hepatica (liver fluke), which spans worldwide, affecting livestock such as cattle and sheep, which become infected by ingesting water or plants such as watercress, lettuce and spinach (Alatoom et al, 2008). The life cycle of Facisola Hepatica begins when eggs are excreted in the feces of an animal which has been infected. Facisola Hepatica Miricidia move on to its intermediate host (freshwater Lymnaea snail), where it develops into the...

2.1 Introduction Animal products are considered to be a primary source of many vitamins and minerals e.g. calcium, phosphorus, vitamin B12...etc. Moreover, the awareness towards the concept of that foods contribute in the prevention and development of some diseases conditions, resulted in designing foods that have beneficial effects on human health with use of enhanced component. CLA represents one of micro component which found in foods products that derived from animals. Ruminant animals...

The recent worldwide estimates indicate that 400 million individuals aged ≥ 15 years are obese, reflected clinically by a surrogate measure of body mass index (BMI) ≥ 30.0kg/m2 (World Health Organisation). The continuously increasing number of individuals with obesity is of major public health concern, not only because excess body weight increases the risk of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), dyslipidaemia and...

Variation in the gene encoding dysbindin-1, dystrobrevin-binding protein 1 has often been associated with schizophrenia. Several studies have also found that dysbindin-1 gene and protein expression are altered in two affected brain areas in that disorder such as the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the hippocampal formation.17 Schizophrenia is a severe, chronic disorder, in which individuals experience hallucinations, delusions, disorganized thinking, and a decline in social functioning....

Type 1 diabetes (T1D), also known as insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), is primarily a childhood autoimmune disease with selective destruction of the pancreatic β-cells, leading to insulin insufficiency over time [REF 25..2Atkinson MA, Maclaren NK. The pathogenesis of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. N Engl J Med. 1994;331:1428-1436. [PubMed]. Genetic susceptibility in synergistic combination with environmental triggers leads to the development of immune response towards self...
