Vitamin E as a functional and biocompatibility modifier of synthetic hemodialyzer membranes: an overview of the literature on vitamin E-modified hemodialyzer membranes.
Along with one century of history, research has provided many solutions for hemodialysis (HD) biomaterials, encompassing several generations of copolymers that have found wide application in the development of hollow-fiber dialyzer membranes. Polysulfone-based biomaterials have gained increasing consideration and are now the gold standard in the production of biocompatible hemodialyzers. Howeve...
متن کاملVitamin E recycling in human erythrocyte membranes.
Vitamin E, the major lipid chain-breaking antioxidant in erythrocyte membranes, is present in low concentration, suggesting that mechanisms should exist to protect against its loss. Enzymatic pathways for the recycling of vitamin E from its tocopheroxyl radical have been observed previously in inner membranes of mitochondria and microsomes. These pathways use electron transport enzymes and thei...
متن کاملThe location and function of vitamin E in membranes (review).
Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin that consists of a group of tocols and tocotrienols with hydrophobic character, but possessing a hydroxyl substituent that confers an amphipathic character on them. The isomers of biological importance are the tocopherols, of which alpha-tocopherol is the most potent vitamin. Vitamin E partitions into lipoproteins and cell membranes, where it represents a mino...
متن کاملthe effect of functional/notional approach on the proficiency level of efl learners and its evaluation through functional test
in fact, this study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any difference between the effect of functional/notional approach and the structural approaches to language teaching on the proficiency test of efl learners? 2. can a rather innovative language test referred to as "functional test" ge devised so so to measure the proficiency test of efl learners, and thus be as much reliable an...
