Liberation of the sequestrated bioactive molecules from dentine by the action of applied dental materials has been proposed as an important mechanism in inducing a dentinogenic response in teeth with viable pulps. Although adhesive restorations and dentine-bonding procedures are routinely practiced, clinical protocols to improve pulp protection and dentine regeneration are not currently driven ...

With dimethyl sulphoxide instead of butanol in the thiobarbituric acid assay for sialic acid, a non-fading chromophore with lambdamax. = 549 nm was produced in a homogeneous solution, allowing dilution of the test mixture in case of high colour yield. This test adapted well to studies on alkaline de-O-acetylation. Bovine and rat submaxillary mucins, and rabbit Tamm-Horsfall urinary sialoprotein...

Physicochemical properties of surimi and kamaboko obtained of solubility in acid, alkaline and conventional methods were compared. The results indicated that the highest protein recovery was related to solubility in acid, alkaline and conventional methods, respectively. The highest removal of lipid and myoglobin was observed by solubility in alkali. Excretion of total pigment and sulfhydryl gro...

Trichoderma sp., a well known biological control agent against several phytopathogens, was tested for its phosphate (P) solubilizing potential. Fourteen strains of Trichoderma sp. were isolated from the forest tree rhizospheres of pinus, deodar, bamboo, guava and oak on Trichoderma selective medium. The isolates were tested for their in-vitro P-solubilizing potential using National Botanical Re...

known acid phosphatase and acid pyrophosphatase, a potent alkaline pyrophosphatase, active only in the presence ofadded Mg2+, was found to be present in all vegetable tissues tested. Fresh plant products showed more alkaline pyrophosphatase activity than the stored products. The richest sources are green leaves, which also contain large amounts of acid pyrophosphatase. However, some leaves like...

Abstract Purpose Rhizospheric soil fungi are critical for plant and health. However, their multiple functional traits impact on growth have not been systematically explored. Methods During this study, biochemical of 73 indigenous fungal isolates 15 unidentified related to promotion production extracellular enzymes were studied. Results Forty four (65.67%) the total produced indole acetic acid (...

Low luminal acid concentrations stimulate alkaline secretion (AS) by the duodenal mucosa. We investigated acid stimulated alkaline secretion by proximal rabbit duodenal mucosa in an Ussing-chamber under different luminal acid concentrations and its relation to mucosal damage. Luminal alkalinisation and potential difference (PD) were measured and mucosal damage was investigated histologically. L...

Aneurinibacillus aneurinilyticus strain CKMV1 was isolated from rhizosphere of Valeriana jatamansi and possessed multiple plant growth promoting traits like production of phosphate solubilization (260mg/L), nitrogen fixation (202.91nmolethylenemL-1h-1), indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) (8.1μg/mL), siderophores (61.60%), HCN (hydrogen cyanide) production and antifungal activity. We investigated the ab...
