Applying recent developments in protein purification techniques, a number of lipoxygenase isoenzymes have been isolated in satisfactory quantities for a detailed physical and structural characterization. Four seed isoenzymes from two soybean cultivars have been studied by peptide mapping, free thiol and iron content determinations, and C-terminal analysis as well as by uv-visible absorption and...

crown ethers 12-crown-4 (12c4), benzo-15-crown-5 (b15c5), 18-crown-6 (18c6), nitrobenzo-18-crown-6 (nb18c6) dibenzo-18-crown-6 (db18c6) and dicyclohexyl-18-crown-6 (dc18c6), dissolved in dichloromethane, are able to form oxonium-ion complexes in contact with aqueous sulfuric and hydrochloric acid solutions. this ability allows the transfer of cr(vi) oxanions from the acid media, through an orga...

introduction: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of different solvents; carbonic acid (h 2 co 3 ), hydrochloric acid (hcl), chlorhexidine (chx) and sodium hypochlorite (naocl) on the surface hardness of mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) and calcium-enriched mixture (cem) cement. methods and materials: plexiglass molds were prepared and filled with angelus mta or cem cement and ...

The gastric glands of Triturus carnifex (Amphibia, Caudata) have been examined by histochemical and immunohistochemical methods with particular regard to hydrochloric acid and pepsinogen secretion. Fundic glands consist of mucous neck cells, endocrine cells and oxynticopeptic cells producing both pepsinogen and hydrochloric acid. The neck cells showed an unexpected distribution pattern which wa...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this in-vitro study was to assess the long-term effects of hydrochloric acid on the surface roughness of three all-ceramic restorative materials CEREC VITABLOC Mark II CAD, IPS Empress CAD and IPS e.max CAD. MATERIALS AND METHODS Six cylindrical specimens (10mm diameter, 3mm height) of each material type were prepared, using the CEREC CAD/CAM machine. The unpolished samp...


 Diet studies of carnivores are often based on analysis prey remains found in scats or stomachs. In these analyses differences decomposition rate and the degree digestion item must be taken into consideration. raccoon dog diets, eggshells rarely found. This may due to three possible scenarios, which act combination: 1) dogs eat bird´s eggs wild, 2) without swallowing shell parts, 3) rapid...
