Background: The present investigation has been designed to study the possible protective effect of flaxseed extract on the structures of the endocrine pancreas and kidneys of streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats for 30 days. Methods: Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into five groups (n=8). Normal control group (NC); received dis

The aim of the present study was to investigate the hepatoxicity of doxorubicin in albino rats (Rattus norvegicus) using different doses and variable durations. Fifty five male rats were divided into two groups, the first group include 35 rats treated intraperitoneal twice a week(every 84 hr) for 3 weeks, 30 rats were treated with doxorubicin at do

A new sensitive and economic analytical method for the analysis of gliclazide in tablet dosage form was developed and validated using commercial HPLC instrument with modern ultra-performance liquid chromatography column. Samples were analysed using Agilent 1100 Series RP-HPLC equipped with a binary pump and auto injector. Samples were injected into

The electroencephalogram (EEG) is an acquiring of the electrical fluctuations that occur in the brain, generated simply by positioning electrodes over the scalp with amplification of the electrical potential produced. The actual EEG indicates three primary types of wave, named alpha, beta and delta, which are distinct based on their rate of product

Introduction: High altitude produces significant hypoxia that stimulate hemoglobin to keep the oxygen carrying capacity normal. Haemoglobin (Hb) increases with increased altitude more than 1000 m above sea level. • Hb level may be misleading in pregnant women living at high altitude. • WHO define anaemia as Hb < 11g/dl at sea level. • Hb

The effect of pistachio hull water extracts (PHWE) at different levels on quality of chicken burger during storage at 4 ± 1°C was investigated. Differences between treatments parameters means were separated using analysis of variance (ANOVA). There was no significant difference in fat, protein, and ash contents of the burgers. The increase in PHW

Camel bone was demineralized through HCl acidulation process at different concentrations (0.0%, 1.5%, 3.0%, and 6.0%) over 1–5 days. The level of demineralization was acid concentration and soaking time dependent. Highest demineralization (62.0%) was recorded in bone sample treated with 6.0% dilute acid for 5 days. Energy dispersive X-ray spectro

Objective: Tamarind (Tamarindus indica) has been used as a medical plant for treating many human and animal diseases and widely used as a traditional herbal medicine for the treatment of snake bites. The objective of the study is to investigate whether tamarind seed extract (TSE) has neutralization activity on an adverse histological reaction again
