A method is described for the separation of a diarrhoeal stool into solid and liquid phases. The seven patients studied had varying degrees of ileal resection. Faecal bile acids were measured in supernatant and pellet. Freeze-dried pellet of the patients had significantly higher bile acid content than freeze-dried faeces of the eight controls (patients mean = 55.8 mg bile acids/ g freeze-dried ...

Objective Aspirated ovarian follicular fluids (FF) contain luteal granulosa cells (LGC) and other contaminating cell types. Several strategies such as the antibody binding methods, the flask method, the cell strainer, and the positive selection of granulosa aggregates after density gradient centrifugation, were tested as LGCs purification methods. Each of these strategies has its own advantages...

Background: One of the factors limiting successful processing of alpaca (Vicugna pacos) semen is the viscosity of seminal plasma. The viscous nature of the collected ejaculate has hindered sperm cryopreservation as well as artificial insemination (AI) under field conditions. Aims: The objective of this investigation was to evaluate recovery, motility, ...

The article develops methods and methodology for experimental studies of centrifuged vibro-centrifuged concrete products annular cross-section. They assess the real variatropy structure confirm correctness accepted research. An original technique cross-sections vibrated, concretes is proposed to determine their integral (common) differential (differing in layers) strength strain characteristics...

Background and Objectives: Pomegranate juice is prone to turbidity, which makes it hard to preserve and concentrate. Microfiltration is one of the membrane processes that can be used to reduce its turbidity, but, it is prone to membrane fouling. Pretreatment is considered the most effective way to reduce membrane fouling. Materials and Methods: This study simulated the effect of centrifugation...

background: extracellular vesicles are particles ranged from 30 nm to 5µm and subcategorized into three groups; exosomes, microvesicles and apoptotic bodies, each of which have different biological impact. lack of a standard method for the detection and isolation of mvs has led to a challenging issue that is a worth considering. in this study, we isolated mvs from the conditioned medium of uc-m...
