Soil carbohydrate and aggregation as affected by carbohydrate composition of paper mill biosolids

Growth and chemical composition of three pistachio cultivars as affected by soil salinity and boron fertilization

Thermal aggregation of egg white proteins as affected by saccharides

Thermal characteristics of egg white proteins (EWP) may differ in the presence of saccharides. Therefore, the influence of saccharides including carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), pectin, sucrose and maltodextrin and heating time on physicochemical characteristics of EWP as a whole were studied. Investigation of Heat Coagulation Time (HCT), solubility, turbidity and protein secondary structure of h...

Digestion kinetics of carbohydrate fractions of citrus by-products

The present experiment was carried out to determine the digestion kinetics of carbohydrate fractions of citrus by-products. Grapefruit pulp (GP), lemon pulp (LE), lime pulp (LI) and orange pulp (OP) were the test feed. Digestion kinetic of whole citrus by-products and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) fraction and acid detergent fiber (ADF) fractions of citrus by-products were measured using the <e...

Alkaline Reserve Capacity of Whole Blood and Carbohydrate Mobilization as Affected by Hemorrhage

Hemorrhage as an etiological factor in the causation of hyperglycemia has been for a number of years the subject of considerable investigation. Schenck (1) in 1894 made an extended study of the conditions under which hemorrhage may produce hyperglycemia. He found that when hemorrhage was produced after ligation of the liver vessels there resulted instead of an increase of blood sugar, an actual...

Carbohydrate-deficient transferrin is not affected by serum separators.

We studied the possible effects on serum carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT) determination by a CDTect (Pharmacia) method of serum isolation in four different types of blood-collection tubes, namely: (1) glass tubes (glass Vacutainer tubes with no additive); (2) S-Monovette Neutral tubes (plastic tubes with no additive); (3) S-Monovette Serum tubes (plastic tubes with kaolin-coated plastic...
