Study on nitrite determination by spectrophotometric method and its application in analysis of mekomg river water in laos

Spectrophotometric method using Griess – Ilosvay reagent was established for determination of nitrite in water samples. The standard equation was determined. It is A = (0,71 ± 0,03).CN + (0,02 ± 0,01) with R2 = 0.99842. By this equation the values of LOD, LOQ of this method were calculated, where: LOD = 0.018 mg/L; LOQ = 0.062 mg/L. This method was used to determining nitrite concentration in Mekong river at Vientiane, Laos.

Pulmonary changes and bronchial hyperresponsiveness in rats subjected to acute acrolein exposure

Acrolein is a toxic substance resulting from cigarette smoke and partial combustion of animal fats and vegetable oils, and mainly used in industry for the production of acrylic acid and plastics. The main forms of human exposure to this substance is through cigarette smoke and car exhaust. Its high toxicity is responsible for many adverse health effects, especially changes in the respiratory system. This study aimed to analyze the changes in lung function and hyperresponsiveness of the smooth muscle of the airways of rats, resulting from acute exposure to acrolein.

Cafeteria diet and obesity: mutagenicity in wistar rats and consequences on female offspring

Besides genetic factors, diet components may contribute to the development of obesity, and it is known that cafeteria diet is characterized by a high caloric intake. Thus, the present study evaluated the mutagenic effects that cafeteria diet exerted on Wistar rats and its consequences on female offspring. Twelve females (generation 1) were separated in control group (CTL) and Cafeteria Diet group (CAF). At 70 days of age, females were mated with non-obese control males.

Biochemical changes in alzheimer’s disease: an overview

Most important to know the early risk factors for Alzheimer's disease as the neurodegenerative progressions of the disease may begin in midlife. Early detection of these risk factors may hut some light on the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease and a plausible paths for its prevention and treatment. It is speculated from the preliminary findings that it is an association between vascular risk factors and Alzheimer's disease need to be invented in self-regulating populations.

Infrastructure – contribution and challenge for development of micro small and medium enterprises
