MBRS PROGRAM AT RUST COLLEGE

MBRS计划在鲁斯特学院的总体目标是鼓励 并鼓励少数民族学生考虑生物医学领域的职业， 并为鲁斯特学院的生物医学研究创造机会。 因此，为了实现我们的目标，我们提出以下建议 项目：（1）由S。沃森会 为学生和教师提供当前研究的信息 通过特邀演讲嘉宾系列讨论生物医学领域的主题， 生物医学技术讲习班，参加科学会议， 在校园内外获得生物医学研究经验。 (2)的 研究发展和学生的培训将由E.S.博士进行。 Arafat在分析患者血浆中的类固醇代谢产物时的作用 经前综合征（PMS）。 希望他的研究能对我们有所帮助 了解经前综合征的病因，并采取适当的药物治疗。 (3)一种快速循环高等植物的环境毒性研究 生物测定将由M.博士指导。沙菲和F先生。大筋 焦 他们的研究重点是确定最敏感的阶段， 将其用于毒性生物测定并制定一项方案 通过组织培养生产芸苔属植物。 (4)M博士维尔克会 监督某些膳食酚类物质对N- 大鼠体内和体外亚硝基脯氨酸的形成。 他的目标是 研究的目的是研究酚类成分的抑制作用， 烟熏肉对大鼠体内外N-亚硝基脯氨酸形成的影响 前体L-脯氨酸硝酸盐。 六名教员和十名 本科生将参与本MBRS的执行 程序.

The overall objectives of the MBRS program at Rust College is to encourage and motivate minority students to consider careers in biomedical fields, and to create opportunities for Rust College biomedical research. Therefore, to accomplish our goals, we are proposing the following projects: (1) Academic enrichment program directed by Dr. S. Watson will provide students and faculty with the information on current research topics in the biomedical field through invited guest speaker series, workshops on biomedical techniques, attending scientific meetings, and getting biomedical research experiences on and off campus. (2) The research development and training of students will be conducted by Dr. E.S. Arafat on analysis of steroid metabolites in plasma of patients with premenstrual syndrome (PMS). It is hoped that his study will help us understand the etiology of PMS and lead to appropriate pharmacotherapy. (3) The study of a rapid cycling higher plant for environmental toxicity bioassay will be directed by Dr. M. Shafi and Mr. F. Osuji. The focal points of their study are to determine the most sensitive stage(s) of Brassica plant to use them for toxicity bioassays and to develop a protocol to produce Brassica through tissue culturing. (4) Dr. M. Virk will supervise the research on the effect of some dietary phenols on N- nitrosoproline formation in vitro and in vivo in rats. The goal of his study is to study the inhibitory effect of the phenolic components of smoked meats on the N-nitrosoproline formation in vitro and in vivo in rats from precursors L-proline nitrate. Six faculty members and ten undergraduate students will participate in the execution of this MBRS Program.
