Development of polycaprolactone scaffold with antibacterial activity by an integrated supercritical extraction and impregnation process
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2013)
The present study is aimed to develop a process for production of functionalized scaffolds impregnated with natural compounds extracted from Patagonian Usnea lichen. A setup for an integrated supercritical CO2 extraction ...
Two opposite dose-dependent effects of diazinon on the motor activity of the rat ileum
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
Acute poisoning with OPs may lead to a range of neurological effects, which cannot be explained by AChE inhibition alone. Several OPs interact directly with cholinergic receptors in mammals, but such data does not exist ...
The Wolf (Canis lupus) as an Indicator Species for the Sylvatic Trichinella Cycle in the Central Balkans
(Wildlife Disease Assoc, Inc, Lawrence, 2014)
Wildlife is the most important reservoir of Trichinella spp. worldwide. Although the Balkans are a recognized European endemic region for Trichinella infections, data on wildlife are scarce. To monitor the circulation of ...
Biological properties of a naturally attenuated infectious bursal disease virus isolated from a backyard chicken flock
(Akademiai Kiado Rt, Budapest, 2010)
The biological properties of an infectious bursal disease (IBD) virus isolated from bursas collected during an outbreak in a village chicken flock in Macedonia are described. The mortality rate was 50%. Two viruses coexisted ...
Fish oil supplementation improved liver phospholipids fatty acid composition and parameters of oxidative stress in male wistar rats
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2012)
In the present study, we examined the effects of fish oil supplementation in 3 months old male Wistar rats on changes in plasma and liver lipid metabolism and oxidative stress parameters. Twenty Wistar rats were randomly ...
Stimulating effect of sugar dusting on honey bee grooming behaviour
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2012)
The aim of this research was to investigate whether or not sugar dusting can stimulate the grooming behaviour in Apis mellifera L. (Hymenoptera: Apidae), an important defensive mechanism against Varroa destructor Anderson ...
Emerging novel porcine parvoviruses in Europe: origin, evolution, phylodynamics and phylogeography
(Soc General Microbiology, Reading, 2013)
To elucidate the spatiotemporal phylodynamics, dispersion and evolutionary processes underlying the emergence of novel porcine parvovirus 2 (PPV2), PPV3 and PPV4 species, we analysed all available complete capsid genes, ...
Anion-pi interactions in protein-porphyrin complexes
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2015)
In this work, we have analyzed the influence of anion-pi interactions on the stability of high resolution protein-porphyrin complex crystal structures. The anion-pi interactions are distance and orientation dependent. ...
Effect of gut active carbohydrates on plasma IgG concentrations in piglets and calves
(Cambridge Univ Press, Cambridge, 2010)
Improving immune status in neonates is crucial to health and production. Gut active carbohydrates (GAC) have been associated with increasing immunoglobin levels and immonucompetence development in mammals. The objective ...
Nigella sativa L. as an alternative antibiotic feed supplement and effect on growth performance in weanling pigs
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2018)
BACKGROUNDNigella sativa L. (NS) is a plant containing bioactive constituents such as thymoquinone. Extracts of NS improve performance and reduce enteropathogen colonization in poultry and small ruminants, but studies with ...
