Biosynthetically-produced Pseudomonas poly-3-hydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are a promising substitute for conventional plastics. Costs involved with the production of PHAs can be reduced by optimizing power consumption, which achieved using nutrient media without preliminary steam sterilization. Cultivation bacteria resistant to sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) on SDS-containing non-sterile yields bioma...

Electrospray ionization/tandem mass spectrometry of proteins separated on sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) gels is severely limited by the requirement that the protein be completely separated from the SDS. As shown here, the gaseous noncovalent SDS adducts of protonated proteins thus formed can be dissociated by infrared irradiation. ESI spectra from myoglobin...

This paper introduces a new kind of Java-server, the Smart Data Server (SDS). It offers the accessing of data with function-calls to SDS-networks. This allows the building of lean clients with the shifting of functionality to the SDS-network. The server builds the middle-tier in a multi-tier architecture (Client SDS-Network Database). It offers a frame for easy-to-build environment-independent ...

Methods This phase IV open-label interventional study was performed on samples from 205 GHD children (175 subjects born AGA and 30 subjects SGA) of Chinese Han origin, recruited at 8 centers. All the subjects were given r-hGH for 4 weeks (0.033mg/kg/d).1536 SNPs were selected from 100 Candidate Genes involved in the GHIGFI axes, growth plate and other short stature-related diseases. We genotype...

Resistance to bile is a prerequisite property of the gastrointestinal bacterial flora. Bile acids are powerful detergents, and resistance to sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) has therefore often been considered relevant to studies of bile resistance. We have studied the effects of bovine bile (BB) and SDS on Enterococcus faecalis V583 by traditional growth studies and microarrays. Transcriptional re...

BACKGROUND Spleen-deficiency syndrome (SDS) in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) played pivotal roles on the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study was performed to establish and evaluate HCC model in mice with SDS in TCM. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 90 C57BL/6 mice were randomized in six groups (n=15 for each group): A, Control group; B, SDS group; C, orthotopic HCC (...

OBJECTIVE This study was performed to provide psychometric data concerning the Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) when administered to schizophrenics. METHODS The subjects were 110 schizophrenic inpatients (50 females and 60 males) who were diagnosed according to the DSM-IV criteria for schizophrenia. Informed consent was obtained from all subjects. RESULTS 1) Cronbach's alpha for the ...

Self-Determination Scale (SDS) telah digunakan untuk mengukur determinasi diri, kesadaran terhadap diri sendiri, dan kesempatan menentukan pilihan tetapi belum terdapat penelitian yang menguji properti psikometri dari SDS. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengevaluasi validitas struktur internal SDS versi Indonesia. melibatkan 703 remaja berusia 12-21 tahun sedang menempuh pendidikan di Kota Surabaya. ...
