The aim of this experimental study is to compare fusion status at lumbar intertransverse processes between implantation with hydroxyapatite (HA) granules alone, HA granules mixed with autologous platelet rich plasma (HA-PRP) and autograft. Twenty-four New Zealand white rabbits were used. The rabbits were randomized into two groups of 12 rabbits eac

From Bodies to Bases: Human Biology and the Laws of Property takes the reader through the reactions of legal systems to the creeping commodification of all components of the human body. In a hierarchical approach starting with the whole body, through the organs, tissues, cells, and finally individual molecules such as DNA, the author shows how legi

An on-station trial was conducted to investigate the effects of three C/N ratios (10/1, 15/1 and 20/1) along with substrate presence or absence on natural food communities in freshwater prawn culture ponds. An experiment was carried out in 40 m2 ponds stocked with a stocking density of 2 prawn juveniles (5.023 ± 0.02 g)m−2. A locally formulated

A rapid, simple, sensitive and specific liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry method was developed and validated for simultaneous quantification of itopride hydrochloride and domperidone in human plasma. Both drugs were extracted by liquid–liquid extraction with ethyl acetate and saturated borax solution. The chromatographic separation

The 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors (statins) are a class of drug used to lower low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels. However, in recent years, statins have been shown to possess a pleiotropic effect beyond its cholesterol lowering ability, including attenuating the effect of ischaemia reperfusion injury. This review

A recent rise in crab aquaculture activities has intensified the generation of waste shells. In the present study, the waste shells were utilized as a source of calcium oxide to transesterify palm olein into methyl esters (biodiesel). Characterization results revealed that the main component of the shell is calcium carbonate which transformed into
