Four cecally-cannulated horses were utilized in a 4 x 4 Latin square to evaluate dosage levels of LIPC on the same opportunistic bacteria stated in experiment 1 and to evaluate cecal characteristics. Horses were randomly assigned to one of four treatments: 1) no LIPC, (0); 2) 15 g of 500 mg/g of LIPC, recommended level (15); 3) 25 g of 500 mg/g of LIPC (25); or 4) 35 g of 500 mg/g of LIPC (35). Horses were fed 2-3 lbs of Strategy® (Purina Mills, St. Louis, MO), once a day at 0600 and treatment was

eugenics. Genetic engineering was incorporated in certain species of plants to modify crop yields and improve resistance to certain crop diseases. The scientists inserted a given gene into plasmid bacteria to ensure that the plant cell assumed the new DNA. The technology has allowed many plant species to thrive in harsh conditions, including cold, hot, and effectively resist pests. There are different edible foods, which have been designed through the technology. The last century has recorded discoveries

central unit of eukaryotic cells [2]. Unlike other organelles, its function is regulated by two genomes due to the presence of an explicit nuclear genome. It performs a plethora of biochemical reactions like oxidative phosphorylation, Krebs cycle, DNA replication, transcription, translation, etc. In addition nuclei are also involved in apoptosis and ionic homeostasis [3]. Because of their multidimensional utility, nuclear proteins are associated with several diseases, including Xeroderma pigmentosum

EXTRACTION Reyes, Chaia Alyssa M., Suelo, Bernadette Ann A., Velches, Manna Angelica F., Vicente, Calvin Jaron B. ABSTRACT Caffeine was extracted from coffee beans by multiple extraction technique. 5.0009 grams of coffee beans was boiled in a solution of 4.4 g. anhydrous sodium carbonate and 100ml distilled water and was extracted three times using 20 ml of dichloromethane. The residue was collected by decanting the mixture of organic extract and anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporating it to

Abstract On August 5, 2010, a cave in occurred at a copper mining company owned by Minera San Esteban Primera in northern Chile, which trapped 33 workers for two months (Weik 2010). The workers were trapped 2300 feet underground (Wikipedia, 2014). The owners of the company had to make sure the public received the correct information. They were not only dealing with the people of Chile but people from all around the world. Their first priority was talking with the family of trapped victims;

Partial-birth abortion is a non-medical term used to describe a type of an abortion procedure which is performed in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, with the goal of delivering a fetus that is not alive. Hotly Contested Right-to-Life Issue Partial-birth abortion is also one of the most hotly contested right-to-life political issues in America. Most legal battles over banning this late-term pregnancy-termination procedure relate to the inclusion of exemptions for certain circumstances
