Abstract Probiotic fermented fruit juice could improve intestinal health with better sensory attributes. The effects of fermentation conditions on flavor quality bayberry were compared through microbial viability and evaluation. Fermentation by combined Streptococcus thermophilus (ST) Lactobacillus acidophilus (LA) resulted in higher evaluation scores. optimized orthogonal experimental design T...

To analyze the ontogenic emergence of leukocytes during early development, a mouse monoclonal antibody (IgG1), designated as XL-1, was produced against the peritoneal macrophages of adult Xenopus laevis. The XL-1 determinant was expressed on all types of leukocytes, including lymphocytes, granulocytes, thrombocytes and macrophages, but not on erythrocytes of either larvae or adults. Immunohisto...

OBJECTIVES The voice range profile (VRP) measures vocal intensity and fundamental frequency. Phonosurgical and logopedic treatment outcome studies using the VRP report voice improvements of 3-6 semitones (ST) in ST range and 4-7 decibels (dB) in sound pressure level range after treatment. These small improvements stress the importance of reliable measurements. The aim was to evaluate the test-r...

Friedrichs and Dressler and Gol’denveiser and Kolos have independently shown that the classical plate theory of Kirchhoff is the leading term of the outer expansion solution (in a small thickness parameter) for the linear elasto-statics of thin, flat, isotropic bodies. As expected, neither this leading term nor the full outer solution alone is able to satisfy arbitrarily prescribed edge conditi...

In this study, the use of flow cytometry to analyze phage-mediated killing of Enterobacter aerogenes under varying conditions of temperature and nutrient availability was assessed. Bacteriophage UZ1, specific for an E. aerogenes strain, was applied at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 1 and 1000 to a Teflon surface, artificially infected with its host at a level of 4.5 log cells. After incub...
