1. Antiviral activity of animal venom peptides and related compounds
Abstract Viruses exhibit rapid mutational capacity to trick and infect host cells, sometimes assisted through virus-coded peptides that counteract host cellular immune defense. Although a large number of compounds have been identified as inhibiting various viral infections and disease progression, it is urgent to achieve the discovery of more effective agent

2. Effects of animal-assisted activity on self-reported feelings of pain in hospitalized children and adolescents
Abstract Animal-assisted intervention (AAI) is an approach recently introduced into the hospital environment to improve the quality of hospitalization and provide important benefits for patients with chronic diseases and long-term hospitalizations. This work aims to verify the effects of animal-assisted activity (AAA) on the expression and quality of self-re

4. Terapia fonoaudiológica assistida por cães: estudo de casos clínicos
INTRODUCTION: By sharing our routines with animals, they became part of our culture when start to occupy different roles, besides the company. Currently, due to the benefits not restricted to common sense, but also listed from scientific research, they are in clinics, hospitals, schools and many others institutions. These studies gave itself two ways to call

5. Characterization of an antibacterial peptide from indian cobra (Naja naja) venom
Due to the development of antibiotic resistance in microorganisms, antimicrobial peptides from natural sources have attracted attention in recent times. Several antimicrobial peptides have been isolated from a wide range of animal sources, particularly snake venoms. Naja naja venom showed antibacterial as well as direct and indirect hemolytic activities, and

6. Development in vitro of embryos of domestic cats, in medium modified TCM 199, fresh and previously frozen / Desenvolvimento in vitro de embriões de gatas domésticas, em meio TCM 199 modificado, frescos e previamente congelados
In this study a total of 48 embryos were used in the compacts morulae, initial blastocysts and blastocysts stages in the degrees I and II, obtained from 14 adult domestic cats. Two animals presented natural manifestation of the oestrus and 12 animals were artificially induced to ovarian activity and ovulation. They received one only application of 150 IU of

7. Computer-Assisted Behavioral Assessment of Pavlovian Fear Conditioning in Mice
In Pavlovian fear conditioning, a conditional stimulus (CS, usually a tone) is paired with an aversive unconditional stimulus (US, usually a foot shock) in a novel context. After even a single pairing, the animal comes to exhibit a long-lasting fear to the CS and the conditioning context, which can be measured as freezing, an adaptive defense reaction in mic

8. Purification and Characterization of a Low-Molecular-Weight Phospholipase A2 from Developing Seeds of Elm1
Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) was purified about 180,000 times compared with the starting soluble-protein extract from developing elm (Ulmus glabra) seeds. On sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis the purified fraction showed a single protein band with a mobility that corresponded to 15 kD, from which activity could be recovered. When ana

9. High quality sperm for nonhuman primate ART: Production and assessment
Factors that affect sperm quality can include method of semen collection, conditions for capacitation and whether or not agglutination is present. Media and procedures for sperm washing can also impair or improve sperm function in assisted reproductive technologies. For example, the removal of seminal fluid through large volume washing is required to elimina
