In this study, it was aimed to investigate α -S1-casein and β -lactoglobulin levels some biochemical mineral values in raw milk samples obtained from cows, buffaloes, sheep, goats raised Samsun. The study material consisted of 40 taken goats, sheep buffaloes after milking a farm Samsun province Bafra district. α-S1-casein β-lactoglobulin serum were determined using ELISA test kits. Calcium (Ca)...

background: the prevalence of allergy and asthma among children is increasing in many countries. however, such inclination has not been completely cleared in north of iran. this study was carried out to evaluate the prevalence of asthma and allergic diseases in school children in gorgan and also to evaluate the association between allergies and sex, family history of atopic disorders, and perso...

Lactoferrin (LF) and β-lactoglobulin (BLG) are among the protein pairs that exhibit heteroprotein coacervation, a unique and relatively unexamined type of liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS). In prior work we found that LF and BLG undergo coacervation at highly constrained conditions of pH, ionic strength and protein stoichiometry. The molar stoichiometry in coacervate and supernatant is LF :...

individual approaches to the diagnosis and management of penicillin allergy are practiced    by clinicians.   this cross-sectional survey of physicians was aimed at exploring their ways of dealing with diagnosis and management of penicillin g allergy.   of the 235 respondents, 63% believed patients’ self-reported history of penicillin allergy and avoided using penicillin g;     97% do so for pa...

macular or maculopapular skin reactions are frequent events in skin allergies as well as in viral infections. clinically, the differentiation may be difficult in the absence of a clear relationship with drug intake or in the failure to detect measles virus-specific antibodies. studies on drug-specific t cell lines and t cell clones isolated from skin-allergy patients have suggested that these c...

b-lactoglobulin (coded by the b-lg gene) is the major milk whey protein in ruminants. studies have shown that this protein is polymorphic in many breeds of sheep as a result of a single base pair substitution in the b-lg gene that also gives rise to rsai restriction fragment length polymorphism (rflp). blood samples were collected from 391 animals belonging to 5 iranian and 6 russian sheep bree...

We have studied the formation and the stability of grafted block complex coacervate core micelles (C3Ms) in solution and the influence of grafted block C3M coatings on the adsorption of the proteins beta-lactoglobulin, bovine serum albumin, and lysozyme. The C3Ms consist of a grafted block copolymer PAA(21)-b-PAPEO(14) (poly(acrylic acid)-b-poly(acrylate methoxy poly(ethylene oxide)), with a ne...

Objective: To investigate the humoral and cellular immune response against cow’s milk proteins in Behçet’s disease and to distinguish any behaviour during active or inactive disease. Methods: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 16 patients and from eight normal controls were cultured in the presence of phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), β-casein, β-lactoglobulin, or chicken egg albumin. Interferon ...

Protein glycation (non-enzymatic glycosylation) and the development of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) is strongly associated with the pathogenesis of diabetic secondary complications [I ] . Hydroxyl radicals generated from superoxide via the Fenton reaction have been implicated for in virro AGE formation [2]. The term glycoxidation has been coined to emphasise the involvement of metal c...
