Can enterocins affect phagocytosis and glutathione-peroxidase in rabbits?Central European Journal of Biology - Tập 8 - Trang 730-734 - 2013

The gastrointestinal microbiota in rabbits play an important role in protection against potential pathogens via the development of the mucosal immune system. The gut health, including the microbial and immunological stability, is often influenced by exogenous factors, mainly around the weaning period. Therefore, alternative strategies are required to improve the animal’s health. In this study, the...... hiện toàn bộ
The uptake of persistent organic pollutants by plantsCentral European Journal of Biology - Tập 6 Số 2 - Trang 223-235 - 2011
Kacálková, Lada, Tlustoš, Pavel
In a field experiment, the transfer of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from contaminated soil to maize (Zea mays L.), sunflower (Helianthus annuus), poplar (Populus nigra × P. maximowiczii) and willow (Salix × smithiana) and the distribution of PCB congeners in maize and sunflower was investigated. The former waste incinerator in Hradec Králové (Czech R...... hiện toàn bộ
Summer zooplankton in small rivers in relation to selected conditionsCentral European Journal of Biology - Tập 6 - Trang 659-674 - 2011
Robert Czerniawski, Małgorzata Pilecka-Rapacz
The abundance and the biodiversity of summer zooplankton in the waters of the Drawa drainage (NW Poland) were studied, as was their relation to selected environmental conditions. The conditions upstream, especially in the outlets of lakes, did not affect the zooplankton communities downstream. This was also true of tributaries which had no influence on the shape of the zooplankton communities in t...... hiện toàn bộ
Primary production dynamics of dominant hydrophytes in Lake Provala (Serbia)Central European Journal of Biology - Tập 4 - Trang 250-257 - 2009
Ljiljana Nikolić, Slobodanka Pajević, Branka Ljevnaić
The objective of this investigation was to analyze the primary production of the dominant hydrophytes by monitoring levels of organic matter and organic carbon and estimating photosynthetic potential via the total chlorophyll content. The survey was conducted in Lake Provala (Serbia) throughout the peak vegetation period of the year 2000. The contents of organic matter and organic carbon for Myrio...... hiện toàn bộ
Effects of the oxygen minimum zone on squat lobster distributions in the Gulf of California, MexicoCentral European Journal of Biology - Tập 9 - Trang 92-103 - 2013
Michel E. Hendrickx, David Serrano
Distribution of squat lobsters of the genera Gastropthychus (one species), Uroptychus (1), Janetogalathea (1), Galacantha (1), Munidopsis (8), and Munida (7) in the Gulf of California, Mexico, was plotted vs. the localization of the Oxygen Minimum Zone (OMZ) using bottom projections of the 0.50, 0.25, 0.10, and 0.05 ml l−1 oxylines. Four fringes where oxygen concentrations were equal or lower than...... hiện toàn bộ
Antioxidant properties of Galium verum L. (Rubiaceae) extractsCentral European Journal of Biology - Tập 5 - Trang 331-337 - 2010
Neda S. Lakić, Neda M. Mimica-Dukić, Jelena M. Isak, Biljana N. Božin
The antioxidant properties of methanol extracts of Lady’s Bedstraw (Galium verum L., Rubiaceae) herb from two different localities in Serbia were evaluated. Antioxidant activity was assessed in four different model systems. Free radical scavenging capacity (RSC) was examined by measuring the scavenging activity of extracts on 2,2-diphenyl-1-pycrylhydrazil (DPPH) and hydroxyl radical (OH), as well ...... hiện toàn bộ
Costs of reproduction in life history of a perennial plant Carex secalinaCentral European Journal of Biology - Tập 6 Số 5 - Trang 870-877 - 2011
Bogdanowicz, Agnieszka M., Olejniczak, Paweł, Lembicz, Marlena, Żukowski, Waldemar
We tested a hypothesis based on life history theory that examines reproductive costs incurred by individuals in consecutive years of their life. A multi-year dataset of resource allocation to vegetative and reproductive structures was analysed in Carex secalina — a perennial, monoecious sedge, reproducing only sexually. In a four-year garden experiment, we assessed above-ground biomass at the end ...... hiện toàn bộ
Effect of mitochondrial toxins on evoked somatosensory activity in ratsCentral European Journal of Biology - Tập 5 - Trang 293-298 - 2010
Szabolcs Takács, Sarolta Bankó, András Papp
Mitochondrial toxins represent an interesting group of neurotoxicants related both to causation and modelling of central nervous damage. 3-nitropropionic acid (3NP), a neurotoxin of herbal and microfungal origin, inhibits succinate dehydrogenase leading thereby to various biochemical and morphological alterations in the brain. Experimental animals treated by 3NP are used to model Huntington’s dise...... hiện toàn bộ
