surface oxidized carbon vulcane xc-72 is prepared as catalyst support and platinumnanoparticles are chemically anchored onto the modified surface. the nanoparticles of pt weresynthesized by reduction of h2ptcl6 with sodium borohydride in a 5.5 m buffer solution ofsodium citrate; the complexation of citrate with metal ions is beneficial to the formation ofnanoparticles. the electro-oxidation of ...

Neither the infectivity nor the morphology of the mouse mammary tumor virus is appreciably affected by abrupt dilutions from strong solutions of cesium chloride, sodium chloride, or sodium iothalamate. In the purification of this virus by density gradient centrifugation, it is not necessary to use solutions of low osmotic activity. In sucrose, sodium iothalamate, potassium tartrate, or citrate,...

Inhibition of Clostridium perfringens germination and outgrowth by salts of organic acids such as sodium lactate, sodium acetate, buffered sodium citrate and buffered sodium citrate supplemented with sodium diacetate was evaluated during continuous chilling of ground turkey. Turkey breast meat was injected with a brine-containing NaCl, potato starch and potassium tetra pyrophosphate to yield fi...

In circulation, platelets adhere to leukocytes forming relatively stable complexes that have been reported to be elevated in cases of unstable angina, myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease, and postangioplasty restenosis.1–10 For this reason, measurement of circulating platelet-leukocyte complexes has been proposed as an early and accurate marker of in vivo platelet activation and myoc...

Thrombin is the key serine protease in hemostasis because it is responsible for activating both procoagulant proteins critical for creating fibrin clots and anticoagulant proteins needed to return the system to balance. Prothrombin is converted to thrombin in primary hemostasis by activated Factor X (FXa) attached to the phospholipid membrane and secondary hemostasis by the prothrombinase compl...

Cytoplasmic citrate serves as an important regulator of gluconeogenesis and carbon source for de novo lipogenesis in the liver. For this reason, the sodium-coupled citrate transporter (NaCT), a plasma membrane transporter that governs hepatic influx of plasma citrate in human, is being explored as a potential therapeutic target for metabolic disorders. As cytoplasmic citrate also originates fro...
