    Abstract: The aim of the paper was to estimate the effect of experimental cerebral ischemia on metabolic characteristics of parietal cortex neurons. The experiments were carried out on 12 laboratory male rats. Cerebral ischemia was modeled with bilateral joint carotid arteries with durations of 60 minutes under intravenous thiopental anesthesia (40-50 mg / k... Show More

    Abstract: Estimation of the energy exchange parameters during partial brain ischemia offers an opportunity for finding new ways of correcting the above pathology. The aim of the study was to investigate the changes in mitochondrial respiration in the homogenates of rats with brain cerebral ischemia of various duration. The experiment was carried out on 19 wh... Show More

    Abstract: This study investigated the effect (attenuation of physico-chemical pollution characteristics) of carbon depth in vertical flow adsorption-filter system of the peroxide oxidation-aeration treatment process for cassava wastewater treatment. Results revealed that although the combined peroxide oxidation, aeration and adsorption-filter treatment proce... Show More

    Abstract: Schistosomiasis is one of the Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) recording high morbidity and mortality rate for developing countries in Africa, South America, the Caribbean, the Middle East, and Asia. The sensitivity of microscopy to the use of diagnostic strip in the survey for urinary schistosomiasis among students attending some selected second... Show More
