One of the wastewaters from tanning industry (soak liquor) contains 0.4 g/L of dissolved protein. During coagulation and flocculation 41% of protein was removed. A suggestion has been made to remove the residual protein by adsorption technique. The optimum conditions for adsorption of Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) on rice bran based activated carbon (RBAC) were arrived. Maximum adsorption of BSA t...

Double-perovskite La2NiMnO6 (LNMO) nanoparticles were synthesized by co-precipitation process, and the adsorption of bovine serum albumin (BSA) protein on these nanoparticles was carried out. The powder samples were annealed at 750, 850, 950, and 1,050°C, respectively. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results reveal that there are double perovskites and exhibit mixed orientations, without any impurity p...

kept at 29ºC for 10 days to allow the expression of the UAS constructs. Apc2 N175K is a loss-of-function allele, Apc Q8 is a null allele, UAS-Ras V12 and UAS-Tkv Q253 are gain-of-function transgenes. UAS-Tkv DN is a dominant negative transgene. Stocks were obtained form Bloomington Stock Center and VDRC. Staining and antibodies. Adult female flies were dissected in PBS. All the digestive tract ...

Magnetite Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by chemical coprecipitation method. Silica-coated magnetite NPs were prepared by sol-gel reaction, subsequently coated with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) via silanization reaction, and then were activated with 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine (TCT) and covalently immobilized with bovine serum albumin (BSA). The size and structure of the par...

Lectin-like receptors natural killer group 2D (NKG2D) and CD94 on natural killer (NK) cells bind to α2,3-NeuAc-containing N-glycans and heparin/heparan sulfate (HS). Using recombinant glutathione S-transferase-fused extracellular lectin-like domains of NKG2D (rGST-NKG2Dlec) and CD94 (rGST-CD94lec), we evaluated their binding affinities (K(d)) to high sialyl Lewis X (sLeX)-expressing transferrin...

Cell colonization of synthetic polymers can be regulated by physical and chemical modifications of the polymer surface. High-density and low-density polyethylene (HDPE and LDPE) were therefore activated with Ar⁺ plasma and grafted with fibronectin (Fn) or bovine serum albumin (BSA). The water drop contact angle usually decreased on the plasma-treated samples, due to the formation of oxidized gr...
