The objective of this study was to determine the effects of l-aspartate, fumarate, l-malate, and an Aspergillus oryzae fermentation extract (Amaferm) on growth on lactate as well as lactate uptake by Selenomonas ruminantium HD4. Growth of S. ruminantium in medium that contained 2 g of dl-lactate per liter was stimulated approximately twofold by 10 mM l-aspartate, fumarate, or l-malate after 24 ...

Acute Peripheral Ischemia (API) is the most severe acute complication after both open and closed fractures, as ischemia compromises not only the vitality of the affected limb, but also the patient's life, because metabolic anaerobic changes following ischemia have serious local and general consequences. These explain why early diagnosis of API is very important for the prognosis of the traumati...

The Extensible Markup Language (XML) consists of two Application Programming Interface (API) i.e. Document Object Model (DOM) and Simple Application of XML (SAX). Previous research has used the DOM API in the Leave Application prototype. In this research, the DOM API based code that developed in the prototype will be changed to SAX API based code. The performance measurement then is carried out...

A system is vulnerable to an API-level attack if its security can be compromised by invoking an allowed sequence of operations from its API. We present a formal framework to model and analyze APIs, and develop an automatic technique based upon bounded model checking to discover API-level vulnerabilities. If a vulnerability exists, our technique produces a trace of API operations demonstrating a...

Malware stands for malicious software. It is software that is designed with a harmful intent. A malware detector is a system that attempts to identify malware using Application Programming Interface (API) call graph technique and/or other techniques. API call graph techniques follow two main steps, namely, transformation of malware samples into an API call graph using API call graph constructio...

Klevas (1) determined dextran in blood by the Hagedorn-Jensen (2) copper reduction method, applied to filtrate prepared by the Somogyi technique (3), after acid hydrolysis of the filtrate for 6 hours. Hint and Thorsen (4) estimated dextran in blood by alkalinizing trichloroacetic acid filtrate, treating the filtrate with standard copper solution, and determining residual copper after 4 hours sh...

Sir: A new antibiotic, 6"'-O-a-n-mannopyranosyl mannosidostreptomycin has been isolated from the culture filtrate of strain MD753-C2, together with streptomycin and mannosidostreptomycin. This strain has been classified as Streptomyces sioyaensis1) which is a new streptomycin-producer. In this communication, the isolation, characterization and structural elucidation of the antibiotic are report...

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is related with a high risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but the intrinsic link between H. pylori infection and AD development is still missing. In the present study, we explored the effect of H. pylori infection on cognitive function and β-amyloid production in rats. We found that intraperitoneal injection of H. pylori filtrate induced spatial learning...
