Abstract ALP domain walls without strings may be formed in the early Universe. We point out that such lead to both isotropic and anisotropic birefringence of cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization, which reflects spatial configuration at recombination. The polarization plane CMB photon coming from each is either not rotated all or by a fixed angle. For following scaling solution, charac...

Eski Türk destan ve hikâyeleri modern edebiyatın birçok edebî eserine gerek konu tema gerekse tip bağlamında kaynaklık etmiştir. boylarının dağıldığı coğrafyada göçebe yaşam tarzları, çevresindekilerle veya tabiatla mücadeleleri noktasında alp tipini gerekli kılan unsurların başında gelir. Bu biçiminde mücadele eden erkeklerin yanında kadınların da kahramanlıkları hikayelere olmuştur.

BACKGROUND Post-operative hypocalcemia (POH) may complicate parathyroidectomy for primary hyperparathyroidism. This study investigates the relationship between POH and pre-operative risk factors to identify a simple method to predict POH risk. METHODS Retrospective data on risk factors for 29 patients was collected for age, pre-operative serum calcium, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), parathyroid ...

A 65 kDa GPI (glycosylphosphatidyl-inositol)-anchored ALP (alkaline phosphatase) was characterized as a functional receptor of the Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis Cry11Aa toxin in Aedes aegypti midgut cells. Two (a 100 kDa and a 65 kDa) GPI-anchored proteins that bound Cry11Aa toxin were preferentially extracted after treatment of BBMV (brush boder membrane vesicles) from Ae. aegypti ...

AIMS Biochemical investigations have shown that an indigenous milk enzyme - alkaline phosphatase (ALP) - which is detectable in the lactocytes, plays a very important diagnostic role in clinical medicine, since its activity varies in different tissues and serves as a specific indicator of disease states. The purpose of this study was to evaluate ALP activity in human colostrum as a possible ear...

In this study a bioinspired approach to induce self-mineralization of bone-like material on alumina surfaces is presented. The mineralizing enzyme alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is covalently immobilized by a carbodiimide-mediated chemoligation method. The enzymatic activity of immobilized ALP and its mineralization capability are investigated under acellular conditions as well as in the presence o...

Background: Obstructive jaundice is believed to be characterized by abnormalities of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), rather than aspartate transaminase (AST). Aim: To compare liver function tests (LFTs) in obstructive jaundice due to malignant strictures with those of jaundice due to gallstones. Methods: LFTs were measured immediately before endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography (ERCP) in...

To produce Aspergillus oryzae alkaline protease (Alp) in an osmophilic yeast Zygosaccharomyces rouxii, we constructed an expression plasmid consisting of the Z. rouxii glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) promoter, the prepro-Alp cDNA of A. oryzae, the whole sequence of Z. rouxii plasmid pSR1, and the G418 resistant gene. The resulting plasmid, when introduced into Z. rouxii cells, ...

BACKGROUND Levetiracetam (LEV) is an antiepileptic drug with a favorable tolerability and safety profile with little or no effect on liver function. CASE PRESENTATION Here, we reported an epileptic pediatric patient who developed a significant elevation in serum alkaline phosphatase level (ALP) during LEV monotherapy. Moreover, the serum ALP level was surprisingly decreased to normal after LE...

Based on the consideration that compound 1 with a -PO3H2 group can be hydrolyzed into compound 3 which shows low solubility in aqueous solutions and thus aggregation can occur easily, a new fluorescence turn-on assay has been constructed for alkaline phosphatase (ALP) with compound 1. ALP at concentrations as low as 18 mU mL(-1) can be assayed with compound 1. Moreover, compound 1 has been succ...
