Comparative study of the primary hemostatic activities of chitosan and cellulose derivatives.

Espinosa, Lea Bernadette H. (2012-03)

The study determined which among the chitosan and cellulose derivatives was the most effective in promoting primary hemostasis. This was determined by measuring the absorbance values of the released lactate dehydrogenase ...
Effect of acute exposure to different concentrations of bisphenola-A on the gonads of sexually mature male zebrafish (Danio rerio) and early life stafe development in progeny.

Espallardo, Stephanie Justine R.; Magnaye, Shiela Mariz S. (2012-03)

Aquatic species are often exposed to endocrine disrupting chemicals such as Bisphenol-A (BPA) due to massive dumping of garbage in aquatic bodies. The main goal of the study is to determine the effects of BPA, an endocrine ...
Emerging resistant strains: a atudy of the antibiotic resistance of enterococcus species isolated in Pasig River, Manila, Philippines (2012)

Briton, Anna Joyce B.; Gatchalian, Ysrael Orlando D. (2012-03)

The Pasig River is one of the major waterways in the country, connecting Laguna de Bay and Manila Bay. It traverses most of Metro Manila and has been used as a commercial route by boats and ferries since the Spanish Era. ...
Potential antioxidant and protective effect of the crude methalonic Syzygium aromaticum bud extract to cadmium-induced hepatotoxicity in adult male mice (Mus musculus).

Garcia, Maria Victoria Faith V.; Tan, Nathaniel Jan G. (2012-03)

The present study aims to evaluate the effects of cadmium toxicity in the liver and the efficiency of crude methanolic Syzygium aromaticum bud extracts in alleviating liver damage. Cadmium is a heavy metal that mainly ...
Soil fungal species isolated the causeway in Calacan Bay, Sta. Cruz, Marinduque.

Fernandez, Erin Liane D. (2012-03)

Fungi are organisms that are capable of growing well in metal-polluted environments. The 5-km causeway in Calancan Bay, Sta. Cruz, Marinduque was formed by the accumulation of mine tailings continuously discharged by the ...
Morphometric study on the endometrium of ethanol-treated mice (Mus musculus) supplemented with folic acid.

Manlutac, Erin Keshia B.; Tallada, Chelsea Faye A. (2012-03)

Ethanol is one of the most potent and common teratogens known. It can also affect fecundity and reproductive health. This study aimed to determine the correlation between endometrial morphology and ethanol consumption, ...
Flucatuating asymetry and blood biochemistry as stress biomarkers in openwater and aquaculture populations of Oreochromis niloticus (Nile tilapia) in Taal Lake, Batangas.

Merin, John Isaac; Quibod, John Isaac (2012-03)

Aquaculture is the method of breeding, rearing, and harvesting both marine and freshwater species and can range from land-based to open-ocean production. The concern of feeding the rapid-growing world population and ...
Genetoxic stress induced by intensive aquaculture activities in Taal Lake (Philippines) on circulating fish erythrocytes using comet assay and micronucleus test.

Ocampo, Kristine Angeline A.; Tayo, Paula Katarina S. (2012-03)

The present study determined the genotoxicological effects of intensive fish cage aquaculture in Taal Lake (Philippines) on Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) erythrocytes using the comet assay and micronucleus test. ...
A Comparison of the Pythoplankton community structure and productivity between aquaculture and non-aquaculture areas in Taal Lake, Philippines.

Landia, James Carlo P.; Pronto, Julius Ryan Duran (2012-03)

Taal Lake, with its growing agricultural investments, is being threatened with unsustainable development and poor management of its aquatic resources. To describe and compare the effects of aquaculture in the lake, the ...
Fluctuating asymetry of wing vein traits in the fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster) exposed to sidestream cigarette smoke.

Chingcuangco, Ma. Renelyn D.; Estrada, Regina Isabel L. (2012-03)

Insect wing veins are important structures that easily respond to stressors like sidestream cigarette smoke. Developmental instability caused by these stressors can manifest as fluctuating asymmetry (FA), or random deviations ...
