Physicochemical and metabolic properties of modified metallothioneins.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Attempts to crosslink metallothionein through lysine residues have resulted in trapping of octameric structures. Two such polymers have been characterized. They are of a critical size for glomerular filtration, and unique tissue distributions of cadmium arise when they are injected into rats.

The Effect of Modified Atmosphere Packaging on Physicochemical, Microbial, and Sensorial Properties of Iranian Mazafati Date
Background: Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) is one of the most convenient packaging methods that could be useful in reducing the wastes and extending the crops’ shelf-life. This research aimed to assess the impact of MAP containing high concentrations of carbon dioxide on physicochemical, microbial, and sensorial properties of Iranian Mazafati date. Methods: Date samples were packed separa...

متن کاملThe Effect of Modified Starch Based Fat Replacer on Milk Properties
In this study, modified starch was used as a fat replacer in the milk. The fat replacer was manufactured from modified starch such as pre-gelatinized and cross–linked starches. Modified starches were manufactured by hydrochloric acid and citric acid treatments from potato and wheat and were added to skim milk at concentrations of 0.15%, 0.30% and 0.45%. Viscosity, total solid, fat content, titr...
متن کاملStructural and functional studies of vertebrate metallothioneins: cross-talk between domains in the absence of physical contact.
In previous studies, we showed that the chemical and dynamic properties of fish and mouse MTs (metallothioneins) present a number of distinctive differences linked to their primary structures, and that phylogenetic relationships of mammal and fish MTs correlate with their three-dimensional structures. The different behaviours of MTs may also be linked to the interaction between their two domain...

The significance of producing superhydrophobic surfaces through modification of surface chemistry and structure is in preventing or delaying biofilm formation. This is done to improve biocompatibility and chemical and biological properties of the surface by creating micro-nano multilevel rough structure; and to decrease surface free energy by Fault Tolerant Control Strategy (FTCS) . Here, we pr...
