OBJECTIVES To analyse the glycosaminoglycans of the adult human rotator cuff tendon matrix, to characterise changes in the glycosaminoglycan composition with age and in chronic rotator cuff tendinitis. METHODS Rotator cuff (supraspinatus) tendons (n = 84) and common biceps tendons (n = 26) were obtained from cadavers with no history of tendon pathology (age range 11-95 years). Biopsies of rot...

The formation of dityrosine of human insulin oxidized by metal-catalyzed oxidation system (H2O2/Cu) was estimated by fluorescent methods. The oxidation of tyrosine and phenylalanine residues present on the insulin molecule was evident after 2 minutes of in vitro oxidation due to the formation of protein-bound dityrosine. The success of oxidative protein modification was followed until available...

Brazilian wheat farming is characterized by a high occurrence of seed-transmitted diseases that can cause significant damage to grain production. The objective this study was evaluate the influence seed treatments on physiological and sanitary quality cultivar seeds. Seeds from three commercial cultivars (TBIO Sossego, TBIO Sinuelo, Toruk) were used, along with four (Control, Chemical, Biologic...

Plant growth regulators, especially those applied directly to the root system, are thought to significantly reduce growth of the root systems. Various perennials were treated with uniconazole (Concise, Fine Americas, Inc.) to evaluate effects on plant height as well as shoot and root dry weights. Plant height of Lobelia cardinalis was not affected by a 1 ppm uniconazole liner dip, but shoot dry...

The kinetics for the reduction of sulfate alone and for concurrent uranium [U(VI)] and sulfate reduction, by mixed and pure cultures of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) at 21 +/- 3 degrees C were studied. The mixed culture contained the SRB Desulfovibrio vulgaris along with a Clostridium sp. determined via 16S ribosomal DNA analysis. The pure culture was Desulfovibrio desulfuricans (ATCC 7757). ...
