We determined regional myocardial blood flow (15-micrometer tracer microspheres) and hemodynamics in nine normal calves, seven calves with right ventricular (RV) hypertrophy induced by pulmonary artery banding (PAB) at sea level, and five calves exposed to simulated high altitude (HA) of 3,500 m (PB = 500 mm Hg) for 8--10 weeks. Progression of RV hypertrophy was very rapid in HA calves. RV weig...

Abstract The effects of heat treatment (90 °C, 5 or 30 min) and enzymatic crosslinking with transglutaminase (TG, 10, 100 1000 nkat/g protein) on emulsifying gelling properties faba bean protein isolate (FPI) were studied. Heat FPI caused a clear shift in far-UV CD spectra towards random coil structure an increase surface hydrophobicity from 181 to 504 RFU. TG crosslinked heat-treated more effi...

In order to systematically study the stress correction method and hot deformation behavior of F92 stainless steel, compression test was performed using a Gleeble-3500 (DSI USA, Connecticut, CT, USA) at strain rates 0.01–10 s−1 temperatures 750–1150 °C. First, obtain truest values from original data, we adopted two models that did not affect each other, also different. Second, adiabatic-friction...

An imaging platform based on broadband coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (BCARS) has been developed which provides an advantageous combination of speed, sensitivity and spectral breadth. The system utilizes a configuration of laser sources that probes the entire biologically-relevant Raman window (500 cm-1 to 3500 cm-1) with high resolution (< 10 cm-1). It strongly and efficiently stimulate...
