Shaken, not stirred: bioanalytical study of the antioxidant activities of martinis.

Antioxidant Isoenzymes Activities in Seedling Roots of Wheat Exposed to Drought Stress

Abstract This study was conducted to evaluate the role of oxidative stress in roots of eight wheat genotypes with different drought tolerance, subjected to drought stress. For analyzing the changes of antioxidant enzymes, native PAGE analyses of protein extract were performed. The roots of wheat seedlings showed one unambiguous isoform of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT). Eight iso...

Medicines, shaken and stirred: a critical review on the ecotoxicology of pharmaceutical mixtures

The Effect of Non-thermal Processing of Hyssopus officinalis on its Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Activities

Hyssopus of­ficinalis L. is one of the most important medicinal plants. Medicinal herbs are contaminated by microorganisms. Conventional methods for reducing of microbial loads such as ethylene oxide, propylene oxide and also use of steam are hazardous and instead, non-thermal process such as microwave and gamma radiation are being used widely in order to eliminate the microbial contaminations ...

Application of Markov-Chain Analysis and Stirred Tanks in Series Model in Mathematical Modeling of Impinging Streams Dryers

In spite of the fact that the principles of impinging stream reactors have been developed for more than half a century, the performance analysis of such devices, from the viewpoint of the mathematical modeling, has not been investigated extensively. In this study two mathematical models were proposed to describe particulate matter drying in tangential impinging stream dryers. The models were de...

Fluid dynamics and mixing behavior in orbitally shaken bioreactors for mammalian cell cultivation

Rationale and significance. Recombinant therapeutic proteins are frequently produced in mammalian cells cultivated in suspension in large-scale stirred tank bioreactors. There are three major drawbacks to stirred-tank bioreactors. First, they are expensive to purchase and maintain, limiting their availability to some potential users. Second, they have not been adapted to volumetric scales less ...
