This study looked at the toxic impacts of water-born acrylamide (ACR) on Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) in terms of behaviors, growth, immune/antioxidant parameters and their regulating genes, biochemical indices, tissue architecture, and resistance to Aeromonas hydrophila. As well as the probable ameliorative effect of Chlorella vulgaris (CV) microalgae as a feed additive against ACR exposure was studied. The 96-h lethal concentration 50 of ACR was investigated and found to be 34.

The doped NPs were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), Field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), and Electromagnetic Data Exchange (EDX). Human fetal lung fibroblast cells (WI38 Cells) was treated with variable concentrations of pure ZnO and ZnO doped Cr (0.

Rats in the control negative "CNT" group received 1.

The objective of the study was to investigate whether monosodium glutamate (MSG) neurotoxicity can be reversed by natural products, such as ginger or propolis, in male rats. Four different groups of Wistar rats were utilized in the study.

The current study was done by using 24 adult male albino rats divided into 8 groups based on the scarification schedule (0, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, and 72 hours PMI). Skin specimens were collected and subjected to a routine histopathologic processing.
