Microencapsulation as one of the most modern methods has remarkable effects on probiotic survival. In this study Lactobacillus casei (ATCC 39392) and Bifidobacterium bifidum (ATCC 29521) were encapsulated using calcium alginate-gelatinized starch, chitosan coating and inulin via emulsion technique, and were incubated in simulated gastric juice (along with pepsin, pH=1.5) and simulated intestina...

The majority of human urinary stones are primarily composed of calcium salts. Although normal urine is frequently supersaturated with respect to calcium oxalate, most humans do not form stones. Inhibitors are among the multiple factors that may influence the complex process of urinary stone formation. We have isolated an inhibitor of calcium oxalate crystal growth from human urine by monoclonal...

Cereal Chem. 90(3):204–210 A new class of zein additives was investigated, thiocyanate salts. Ammonium, potassium, guanidine (GTC), and magnesium thiocyanate salts were added to solutions of zein in with various amounts of tri(ethylene glycol) (TEG), cast as films, and then tested to determine the impact that each salt had on properties. The presence of these salts affected solution rheology an...

Total serum calcium, its fractions and serum citrate concentrations were measured in children receiving massive blood transfusion for scoliosis surgery, and in other children undergoing open heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. During scoliosis surgery, although up to 100% of blood volume was replaced, and no additional calcium salts were infused, serum ionized calcium concentration remai...

Skeletal and systemic disease may be reflected in profound alterations of the metabolism of the bone salts. In human skeletal disease attention has focused, for the most part, on the altered metabolism of calcium. Several studies indicate that strontium may have a metabolic pathway similar to that of calcium and that radiostrontium, because of its ease of measurement, might be a convenient indi...

Herein is investigated the potential of CO2-triggered and thermo-responsive gel as plugging agent for heterogeneous sandstone formations. The starts to swell from a silica-based nanofluid solution at temperature high 55 °C. Spectral characterization, rheological properties, adsorption characteristics, oil recovery efficiency modeled formations are studied. spectral characterization revealed tha...

The aim of this work was to provide a retrospective review the main hydrochemical indicators water Samara River and calculate anthropogenic component ion flow in modern period, comparative assessment relevant for entire period scientific observations. From average-long-term data composition River, it can be seen that ionic had chloride chloride-sulfate classes, calcium, calcium-magnesium sodium...
