The work reported here sought to assess the protection afforded by two stabilizing solutions (sorbitol-gelatin and glutamic acid-lactose) in preserving the potency of freeze-dried Schwarz strain measles virus during storage with a view to the production of reference preparations and working lots of virus suspensions. Stabilized virus suspensions and control suspensions were stored at -70 degree...

It has previously been shown that cell-free extracts of Acetobacter subozydans possess two pathways for the oxidation of sorbitol (1). In the presence of DPN,l fructose is produced; with TPN, sorbose is formed. The primary purpose of this paper is to describe the separation of these two dehydrogenases from each other. The DPN enzyme free from TPN activity has been concentrated about lBfold, whe...

Biodegradable plastic is made by mixing from temu ireng rhizomes starch matrix, sorbitol as a plasticizer, and chitosan filler through the melt intercalation method. heating process at 800C drying 70oC. The results show that addition of has an effect on characteristics plastic. best tensile strength biodegradable with mass composition starch: 5:5 gram without 4.03 MPa. percentage elongation in ...

TonEBP/NFAT5 (the tonicity-responsive enhancer binding protein/nuclear factor of activated T cells) modulates cellular response to osmotic changes by accumulating inositol and sorbitol inside the cells. Our objective was to assess placental osmolytes, TonEBP/NFAT5 RNA and protein expression, and signaling molecules across gestation between control and intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) ovin...

PURPOSE The replacement of glucose by sorbitol in growth medium causes selection of astroglial cells from heterogeneous primary cultures derived from the brains of newborn mice. The present study was undertaken to investigate the effects of sorbitol on in vitro selection of Müller glial precursors from expanded late retinal progenitor cells (RPCs). METHODS RPCs used in these studies were isol...

cohol consumption, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and taller height (the longer the nerve fibers, the greater the susceptibility to damage from external trauma or vascular complications).1,3 Most practitioners are aware of the severe pain that accompanies DPN, but only 10% to 30% of patients experience painful symptoms. Instead, the disorder begins as a change in or loss of sensation that ...

The most widely used sugar alcohols are: xylitol, sorbitol, mannitol, maltitol, lactitol and the products Lycasin® and Palatinit®. It is often claimed that xylitol is superior to the other sugar alcohols for caries control. This paper examines clinical studies on the caries-preventive and therapeutic effects of sugar alcohols with emphasis on sorbitol and xylitol. It is concluded that chewing s...
