Through this paper work we have analyzed the effect of different contaminants on the flashover by creating artificial pollution condition, considering the natural condition where more than one salt as contaminant deposits on the surface of insulator at a time, under the wet condition that cause flow of highly leakage current, that leads to flashover. We choses the mixture of different salts, so...

PSII activity was inhibited after Spirulina platensis cells were incubated with different salt concentrations (0-0.8 M NaCl) for 12 h. Flash-induced fluorescence kinetics showed that in the absence of DCMU, the half time of the fast and slow components decreased while that of the middle component increased considerably with increasing salt concentration. In the presence of DCMU, fluorescence re...

The apoplast of plant cells, which carries out multiple functions in plant metabolism and signaling, is not only a barrier but also the linker between the environment and the protoplast. To investigate the role of apoplastic proteins in the salt stress response, 10-d-old rice (Oryza sativa) plants were treated with 200 mM NaCl for 1, 3, or 6 h, and the soluble apoplast proteins were extracted f...

Plant phospholipase D (PLD), which can hydrolyze membrane phospholipids to produce phosphatidic acid (PA), a secondary signaling molecule, has been proposed to function in diverse plant stress responses. In this research, we characterized the roles of the cucumber phospholipase D alpha gene (PLDα, GenBank accession number EF363796) in growth and tolerance to short- and long-term salt stress in ...

Baker's asthma is a frequent occupational allergic disease caused mainly by inhalation of cereal flour, particularly wheat flour. This review deals with the current diagnosis and immunomodulatory treatments, as well as the role of wheat allergens as molecular tools to enhance management and knowledge of this disease. The review also discusses the current status of several salt-soluble proteins ...

An attempt was made to reveal the mode of action of protons and salts on the recently discovered GTP gamma S-dependent interaction of bovine retinal rod outer segments (ROS)1 nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDP kinase) with the complex between bleached visual receptor rhodopsin and retinal G-protein transducin in bovine ROS membranes. The properties of recombinant rat NDP kinase alpha, that is i...

Salt curing (Kencing) is a method used for preserving food products, including fish, that is believed to influence the quality and chemical composition of the finial product. The present study is focused on the alteration of protein quality and amino acid profile of Scomberoides commersonnianus after stacking during 190 days of shelf life in ambient temperature. A12 assorted of specimens were c...

Abstract Crop production and growth are severely affected by salt stress. Nevertheless, the bio-fertilizer vermicompost (VC) can be participated as a potent inhibitor of salinity on plant crop regulating photosynthetic efficiency. We investigated effect VC performance salt-stressed broad bean ( Vicia faba L. Aspani cultivar). Seeds were grown in soil mixture; clay sand ratio 1:2 volume with fiv...

Although low concentrations of polyethylene glycol (1-5%, w/v) are essential for growing crystals of phosphoglucomutase from ammonium sulfate solutions (at close to 50% of saturation), the observed rate constant for short-term crystal growth on a defined, microcrystalline surface is essentially independent of polyethylene glycol concentration under these conditions. But this cosolute produces a...

The interleukin 2 receptor (IL2R) plays a prominent role in the biology of T cells, B cells, and NK cells during activation. Of the three chains described, the alpha-chain of the receptor (Tac; IL2R alpha; CD25) is the most subject to regulation and is shed from the surface of activated cells to generate a soluble form in serum and tissues. Conflicting results have been reported on the native s...
