Assessment of DNA damage is of primary concern when the pollution-related stress in living organisms has to be determined.The reason for this concern comes from the evidence that damages in DNA often lead to mutations which are potential threat for the sustainability of organisms and ecological systems.To monitor genotoxicity of the marine environm

Nanoanalytical electron microscopy of events predisposing to mineralisation of turkey tendon
Abstract The macro- and micro-structures of mineralised tissues hierarchy are well described and understood.However, investigation of their nanostructure is limited due to the intrinsic complexity of biological systems.Preceding transmission electron microscopy studies investigating mineralising tissues have not resolved fully the initial stages Vi
Exploring the Diversity of Mechanisms Associated With Plant Tolerance to Virus Infection
Tolerance is defined as an interaction in which viruses accumulate to some degree without causing significant loss of vigor or fitness to their hosts.Tolerance can be described as a stable equilibrium between the virus and its host, an interaction in which each partner not only accommodate trade-offs for survival but also receive some benefits (e.g
Sildenafil-induced priapism in a dog : an unusual case report
