    Hematological and Biochemical Status in Norm and with LPS-Induced General Inflammation

    The present study investigated the effects of E. coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced mastitis model in rat on the activity of antioxidant enzyme systems under modified nucleosides/nucleotides administration. To achieve this purpose, E. coli LPS was injected intraperitoneally. The antioxidant activities of the enzymes, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, and catalase together with malondialdehyde (MDA) level were assayed in blood serum. Results obtained showed that, the antioxidant enzyme activities were significantly decreased while the level of MDA, the indicator of lipid peroxidation were significantly increased following intramammary inoculation of LPS compared to the control animals. The results indicated that E. coli LPS-induced mastitis could alter antioxidant enzymes and increase lipid peroxidation. &nbsp

    Teaching and Learning Computer Science at Al Baha University, Saudi Arabia : Insights from a staff development course

    No full text
    In this special session we meet a set of projects in computer science and engineering education at a university in Saudi Arabia. They are the product of a pedagogical development course ran in collaboration with a Swedish university during the academic year 2013/2014. The projects reflect the local situation, with its possibilities and challenges, and suggest steps to take, in the local environment, to enhance education. As such it is a unique document that brings insights from computer science and engineering education into the international literature
