Aflatoxins are naturally occurring mycotoxins that are produced by the species Aspergillus. Aflatoxin has a known ability to produce hepatocellular carcinoma and is one of the most carcinogenic compounds in nature (2). They are also found abundantly in plant derived foods that have been contaminated‚ especially in the economically developing

The antibacterial activity of natural killer cells. Introduction Natural killer (NK) cells‚ a variety of granular lymphocyte‚ are the first line of defence against infections and cancer. First identified by their ability to “naturally” kill tumour cells previously unrecognised by the host (Kiessling et al.‚ 1975)‚ these bone marrow-derived innate killers were later recognised as a sepa-rate lymphocyte lineage‚ obtaining both cytotoxicity and cytokine-producing effector functions (Trinchi-eri

Chapter I Problem and its Background A. Introduction Chelating agent is a compound that combines with metal ions to form stable ring structures. It is used to reduce the concentration of free metal ion in solution by complexing it. From the Greek term “chela” that means “the great claw” of the lobster or other crustaceans‚ chelate‚ root word for “chelating”‚ suggests the way in which an organic compound “clamps” onto the cationic element‚ which it chelates. In order for a compound to be

Corneal Ulcer (Introduction) The eye is one of the vital organs in a human being. As seen on figure 1‚ the eye is composed of many different parts and function. The cornea is a clear covering over the colored iris and the pupil of the eye. The function of cornea is to help focus light on the retina and protect the iris‚ lens‚ etc. so that the eye can see. The cornea is best to compare with a standard contact lens. Although‚ the function of a cornea is to protect from harmful microorganisms

CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Background of the Study Mangrove swamps are forested intertidal ecosystems that occupy sediment-rich sheltered tropical coastal environments. By trapping and stabilizing fine sediments‚ mangroves control the quality of marine coastal waters. Aside from maintaining coastal food webs and populations of animals‚ mangroves have an important role in pollution control through their absorptive capacity for organic pollutants and nutrients‚ and they play an important role in storm
