When the NP genes and the NP sequences derived from the only open reading frame of the two H 10 viruses were compared with those of other human and avian influenza A viruses, it turned out that the mink virus NP was highly related to that of other avian strains, but differed from that...
Glucose is a simple sugar that fuels energetic processes, but increased or decreased levels of glucose can be dangerous. Explore conditions that result from unbalanced glucose levels in blood and urine such as hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia, and glycosuria, as well as common causes for each....
The type of treatment will depend on the underlying cause of glucosuria. If a urinary tract infection is present, for example, antibiotics will be employed and adjusted according to the culture. Meanwhile, solutions or medications that may have caused the glucose to appear in the urine should b...
A method is provided for determining the level of an analyte in the blood of an individual based on determination of the level of the same analyte in non-blood sample (e.g. urine, saliva and hair) obtained from the individual. The non-blood sample contains red blood cells and the volume...
Urine samples routinely obtained for dipstick analysis (glucose and protein) were semi-quantitatively cultured by dipslide technique to assess for asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB). For the purpose of this study, isolates growing in counts of ≥ 104 colony forming units (CFU/ml) belonging to the ...
How does long-term nickel exposure affect hormone levels in the reproductive system? What are the overall effects of nickel on thyroid hormones and metabolism? What are the overall health implications of nickel exposure on weight and blood glucose levels? In what ways does nickel affect the secret...
Within each analytical 60 min interval, the produced urine was collected. From every 100 ml of urine, an aliquot of 1 ml was kept for late analysis and the rest was reinfused after filtration (13 µm) at 100 ml intervals to the reservoir in order to prevent alterations in the compositi...
Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common type of cutaneous T cell lymphoma. As the early clinical manifestations of MF are non-specific (e.g., erythema or plaques), it is often misdiagnosed as inflammatory skin conditions (e.g., atopic dermatitis, psori
The characterization of EVs is an essential step in clinical applications. The first and leading technique is microscopy, which is used for morphology and size analysis. In particular, electron microscopy techniques are the only method available to visualize the appearance of EVs, which are generally...
Monoglucuronides and sulfates predominate in the urine. Some anthocyanins can reach the large intestine in significant quantities and undergo digestion by the action of the microbiota. In turn, these digestion-derived metabolites may contribute to the beneficial properties related to anthocyanins [139]....
