a novel, simple and more sensitive spectrophotometric procedure has been developed for the determination of brilliant blue fcf and carmoisine in food samples by an aqueous two-phase system (atps). after extraction, the absorbance values were measured at 527 and 632 nm for carmoisine and brilliant blue fcf, respectively. the effects of different parameters such as, polyethylene glycol (type and ...

This paper focuses on the problem of accurate Fault Characteristic Frequency (FCF) estimation of rolling bearing. Teager-Kaiser Energy Operator (TKEO) demodulation has been applied widely to rolling bearing fault detection. FCF can be extracted from vibration signals, which is pre-treatment by TEKO demodulation method. However, because of strong noise background of fault vibration signal, it is...

N-methyl-3-phenyl-norbornan-2-amine (camfetamine; CFA) is sold as a so-called "research chemical" via the internet and belongs as an amphetamine-type stimulant (ATS) to the group of new psychoactive substances (NPS). CFA is an analogue of N-ethyl-3-phenyl-norbornan-2amine (fencamfamine; FCF), which was developed in the 1960’s as an appetite suppressant and a stimulant for treating depressive da...

BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is common in geriatric cats, and the most prevalent pathology is chronic tubulointerstitial inflammation and fibrosis. The cell type predominantly responsible for the production of extra-cellular matrix in renal fibrosis is the myofibroblast, and fibroblast to myofibroblast differentiation is probably a crucial event. The cytokine TGF-β1 is reportedly the...

The interaction of Fast Green FCF (FCF) with proteins (including bovine serum albumin (BSA), human serum albumin (HSA), pepsin (Pep) and alpha-chymotrypsin (Chy), and lysozyme (Lys)) was characterized by enhanced resonance light-scattering (RLS) measurements using a common spectrofluorometer. The enhanced RLS signals of FCF by proteins at 279.0 nm were obtained, and the mechanism of the RLS enh...
