An Uncommon Complication of Ankle Varus During Tibial Transport in an Ilizarov Frame: A Case Report.

Case: We treated a 22-year-old man with an infected fracture of the tibia by resection of necrosed bone and bone transport with an Ilizarov device. Four weeks after initiation of transport, an ankle varus deformity from distal migration of the fibula was noticed. A wire that had been incorrectly placed through both the fibula and the transport fragment of the tibia was identified as responsible for this complication.

Purification and molecular characterization of IgM in olive barb, Puntius Sarana.

In the present article, immunoglobulin (Ig) of Puntius sarana (a vulnerable medium carp species) was purified by affinity chromatography, characterized, and identified as only IgM type with a native molecular weight of 879 kDa having one heavy (88 kDa) and one light (26 kDa) chain. Further, the developed rabbit antisera against IgM was found to be quite specific to P. sarana IgM and used in ELISA to measure the antibody titer in P.

Egg laying strategies and effect of temperature on egg development of Argulus siamensis.

Argulus siamensis is the most damaging fish parasite prevalent in the freshwater aquaculture systems of India. In an attempt to further understand the behavior of this economically important parasite, the means of biological transmission, egg laying strategies and effect of temperature on development of eggs was studied. A.

Characterization of serum immunoglobulin in channa striata (BLOCH) and kinetics of its response to Aeromonas hydrophila antigen.

The immunoglobulin (Ig) from the serum of Channa striata was isolated by gel electroelution and characterized further to understand its nature and subsequent applications in studying the immune response. The purity of the sample was confirmed with the presence of a single band on native gradient PAGE and the molecular weight of ∼897 kDa was determined from the gel. In SDS-PAGE, C.

Efficacy of two avermectins, doramectin and ivermectin against Argulus siamensis infestation in Indian major carp, Labeo rohita.

The efficacy of two avermectins, doramectin and ivermectin via oral and parenteral routes and their prophylactic effects against Argulus siamensis infestation in Indian major carp, Labeo rohita was studied. Doramectin and ivermectin were fed once to L. rohita sub-adults naturally infested with A.
