Natural alpha-radioactivity in bone, liver and blood samples from the various species
In this thesis, samples from the various species are studied for alpha-radioactive content. The experimental technique used is one of thick source "total" alpha counting with "fast pair" scaling enabling separation of "Thorium" series contribution. A study of the change in count rate over a time …

Multiplatform metabolome profiling to identify specific signatures and biomarkers in blood samples: untargeted approach
… patient discrimination based on specific blood biomarkers. The obtained results are auspicious, giving place to the new hypothesis about disease pathogenesis and possible involved metabolic pathways that should be validated by a further targeted and multidisciplinary approach.

Investigations of an Automated System for Profiling of Serum Constituents in Neonatal Blood Samples
… desirable, profiling is not done on neonatal samples because of the very small samples available. It has been the objective of these studies to determine if a multichannel centrifugal analyzer (MCCA), a sample/reagent handling system, and chemical methods can be developed for profiling serum …

Determination of reference intervals and decision limits for thyroid stimulating hormone and thyroxine on cord blood samples
… hormone (TSH) and free thyroxine (FT4) in cord blood, as well as to compare the previous TSH radioimmunoassay with the current electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. Methods: Utilizing residual samples from the Peninsula Maternal and Neonatal Services (PMNS) CH Screening Program, this prospective …

Development and optimisation of pre-treatment procedures to enhance total haemoglobin for carboxyhaemoglobin analysis in diluted blood samples
… CO is inhaled, it binds to haemoglobin in red blood cells and forms carboxyhaemoglobin (COHb). Used as a biomarker to investigate CO exposure, COHb can be determined in blood using a spectrophotometry-based technique called CO-oximetry. One of the challenges with certain CO-oximetric …

Post-mortem toxicogenetics: determining the suitable of blood samples collected for routine toxicological analyses for use in subsequent genetic analyses
… results, it is imperative to investigate whether blood samples retrieved back from a toxicology laboratory would be sufficient for the said genetic analysis, despite the handling involved in the process of toxicological investigation. To this end, blood samples from 30 deceased individuals in …

Assessment of the suitability of blood samples collected for toxicology for subsequent genetic analysis: A follow-up study after five years
… may delay the processing of toxicology samples by months or even years. As such, specimens that have undergone toxicological testing and were stored long-term are sometimes the only samples available to conduct subsequent molecular autopsies, should it be necessary for the cause of death …

Assessment of the suitability of blood samples collected for toxicological analysis for subsequent genetic analysis: A follow-up study one year later
… results, there is no chance to obtain another blood sample from the deceased individual for genetic analysis. It was therefore important to determine the suitability of blood samples collected and handled in toxicology environments for subsequent genetic tests. Previously, blood samples from 30 …

Use of an 18s rRNA metagenomics approach as a method of detection of multiple infections in field blood samples collected on FTA cards from cattle
… to the difficulty in collecting and analysing samples. Collecting samples from remote and tropical areas is difficult, especially for epidemiological studies because of the problems associated with transport and storage of samples. The use of technologies such as FTA cards, that fix and store …

Genotoxic effects of oestrogens and nano-NSAIDs: Genotoxic effects of oestrogens in vivo and nano- and bulk forms of NSAIDs on blood samples from prostate cancer patients
… Tissues from the testis, bone marrow, liver and blood were analysed after an 8-day duration of exposure. Statistically significant increases in DNA damage were observed in the testis with daidzein and in the blood with diethylstilboestrol. In addition, a further study was carried out to examine …

Leukocyte Chemotaxis Activity by Cotyledons of Dairy Cows With Normal Delivery and Retained Placenta
… cows with non-retained placentas. Jugular blood samples and placentomes were collected soon after parturition (Group 1), and at 8 hours after parturition (Group 2). Neutrophils were isolated for chemotaxis under agarose, and placentomes were used for morphologic evaluation, and as a source …

Genotoxic effects of nano and bulk forms of aspirin and ibuprofen on blood samples from prostate cancer patients compared to those from healthy individuals: The protective effects of NSAIDs against oxidative damage, quantification of DNA repair capacity and major signal transduction pathways in lymphocytes from healthy individuals and prostate cancer patients
Inhibiting inflammatory processes or eliminating inflammation represents a logical role in the suppression and treatment strategy of cancer. Several studies have shown that anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have promise as anticancer agents while reducing metastases and mortality. NSAIDs are …
