Hop tannin extract: a promising tool for acceleration of lautering

Yessotoxin, a Promising Therapeutic Tool

Yessotoxin (YTX) is a polyether compound produced by dinoflagellates and accumulated in filter feeding shellfish. No records about human intoxications induced by this compound have been published, however it is considered a toxin. Modifications in second messenger levels, protein levels, immune cells, cytoskeleton or activation of different cellular death types have been published as consequenc...

“Silymarin”, a Promising Pharmacological Agent for Treatment of Diseases

Widespread use of herbal drugs because of their protective effects on different organs toxicity has been shown in many studies. These protective effects have been illustrated in the fields of nephrotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, viral hepatitis, cancer, in vitro fertilization, neurotoxicity, depression, lung diseases, prostate diseases etc. Silymarin has cytoprotection activities due to its antioxid...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

Poisson Impedance : A promising tool for determination of sand quality

We demonstrate the separation of sand stone reservoir from shale where gas sand and shale have almost similar P-, S-impedance contrast using Poisson Impedance (PI). The correlation coefficients between PI curve (with different c values) versus Gamma ray and Water saturation curve are computed. The c value corresponding to maximum correlation coefficient for GR is used to compute another attribu...
