It has been shown that enhanced acid secretion can be suppressed in the rat by systemic administration of glucose. We have recently reported that enhancement of acid secretion as a result of pentagastrin was diminished by intragastric administration of D-glucose. Present study was designed to investigate whether intragastric D-glucose influences gastric acid secretion associated with carbachol ...

Background We aimed to estimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and to determine the relationship between GFR with C-reactive protein (CRP) and uric acid. MaterialsAndMethods In this cross-sectional study, one-hundred and forty PCOS women and 60 healthy subjects were evaluated. The study was carried out at Endocrinology Outpatient Clinic, Erzu...

in this study, the effect of chemical modification of wood flour on the mechanical properties of polypropylene based composites was investigated using by dynamic mechanic thermal analysis. to meet this objective, the wood flour treated with chemical components including alkaline, acetic acid and benzoyl chloride, and then the chemically treated fibers were compounded with polypropylene at 180 °...

Acid-fast staining has been utilized in the field of medicine since late 1800s. It was, for a while, considered gold standard diagnosing leprosy and tuberculosis. Principally it uses 1 primary agent, carbol fuchsin; methylene blue as counter stain. The emergence molecular-based diagnostic tests makes some us question relevance acid-fast daily practice. This literature review aimed to revisit me...

In this work agar- and borax-based hydrogels with without the addition of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) at different concentrations were synthesized. Hydrogels modified by same amount acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) which exhibits antithrombotic properties. The effect modification ASA on properties was analyzed.

world consumption of butter has declined over the last decades partly due to its physical limitations and partly due to its poor nutritionalproperties. in this study, the effect of hazelnut addition on the properties of butter, was evaluated taking into account that hazelnut is a source of unsaturated fatty acids and antioxidants. powdered hazelnut was added to butter at 3 levels (10, 20 and 30...

Bimetallic Pt-V supported by Gamma-alumina is used to observe the changes of nheptanewhen passed over this catalyst. The Pt concentration was kept constant at0.1wt% while the concentration of the vanadium was 0.5wt%. The activity andselectivity of catalyst have been determined under conditions at 450-500 degreescentigrade and 15-30 attn. The experimental results show that the addition of second...

The intake of antioxidants intake has been reported to be inversely associated with the incidence of coronary artery disease. To clarify the possible role of lipophilic antioxidants in prevention of atherosclerosis, we investigated the effects of lycopene on the susceptibility of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) to oxidative modification. In this study, “lycopene” was added to plasma and incubated...
