toxemia/phosphatase

The levels of urinary estriol (U-E3), serum leucine aminopeptidase (LSP) and heat stable alkaline phosphatase (HSAP) were determined in toxemic and normal pregnancies. The significance of differences was established by weekly estimation of the parameters for both groups after the 28th week of

BACKGROUND Pregnant goat does can develop various metabolic diseases during late pregnancy that may have profound effects on their health and productivity, including subclinical pregnancy toxemia. OBJECTIVE This study was performed to evaluate serum biochemical findings in goats in late pregnancy

OBJECTIVE Preterm infants are known to remain small during childhood. We previously found that evidence of neonatal metabolic bone disease was associated with reduced length at 18 months. We aimed to further investigate factors predicting childhood height and to test the hypothesis that evidence of

Maternal plasma zinc levels, red blood cell levels, and serum alkaline phosphatase activity were used as indices of zinc status in 279 pregnant women at delivery and were compared with the incidence of complications during the antenatal period and major dysfunctional labor patterns. The median

Bacillus thuringiensis is a Gram-positive spore-forming bacterium pathogenic to various insect species. This property is due to the Cry toxins encoded by plasmid genes and mostly produced during sporulation. B. thuringiensis contains a remarkable amount of extrachromosomal DNA

The inflammatory process in pancreas affects the function and structure of kidneys both by enzymatic toxemia and impairment of the renal circulation. In this study the stability of renal lysosomes in AEP in dogs treated with cytoprotective agent PGI2 was investigated. AEP was induced by injection of
