Diagnosis of cystic echinococcosis is complex and has to be confirmed by the combination immunological tests imaging techniques. In this study heat shock proteins were induced their immunoreactivity was assessed ELISA. Sera collected from 34 hydatid patients who admitted Rizgary Teaching Hospital through October 2013 July 2017, in addition 29 healthy donors 18 non-hydatid cases. For response, t...

In addition the enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of NADH by 0 2 . The stoichiometry of the first reaction is proved by the formation of the amount of NADH which under anaerobic conditions exactly corresponds to the amount of formate used. In this reaction NAD is replaceable by a large number of redox dyes. For the second reaction the stoichiometry is proved a) kinetically by the relation of the v...

The RNA recognition motif (RRM) is the most common RNA-binding domain in eukaryotes. Differences in RRM sequences dictate, in part, both RNA and protein-binding specificities and affinities. We used a deep mutational scanning approach to study the sequence-function relationship of the RRM2 domain of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae poly(A)-binding protein (Pab1). By scoring the activity of more tha...

BACKGROUND Despite importance of chest tube insertion in chest trauma, there is no general agreement on the level of daily volume drainage from chest tube. This study was conducted to compare the effectiveness and safety of chest tube removal at the levels of 150 ml/day and 200 ml/day. METHODS Eligible patients (138) who needed replacement of chest tube (because of trauma or malignancy) were ...

Context. Low-energy cosmic rays (CRs) control the thermo-chemical state and coupling between gas magnetic fields in dense molecular clouds. However, current estimates of low-energy CR spectrum ( E ≲ 1 GeV) associated ionization rate are highly uncertain. Aims. We apply, for first time, a new method constraining spectral shape using H 2 rovibrational lines from cold Methods. Using MMIRS instrume...

Collaborative problem-solving is often not a sequential process; instead, it can involve tasking switching or dual tasking (i.e., multitasking) activities in that the collaborators need to shift their attention between the targeted problems and the conversations they carry on with their collaborators. It is not known to what extent the multitasking activities increase or decrease collaborators’...

A persistent puzzle in our understanding of hemostasis has been the absence of hemorrhagic symptoms in the majority of patients with Hageman trait, the hereditary deficiency of Hageman factor (factor XII). One proposed hypothesis is that alternative mechanisms exist in blood through which plasma thromboplastin antecedent (PTA, factor XI) can become active in the absence of Hageman factor. In or...

1. A spectrophotometric assay of 2':3'-cyclic nucleotide 3'-phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4.37) based on the use of an acid-base indicator and a buffer having identical PKa values is described. The assay is sinmple and rapid; it was particularly convenient for monitoring the enzyme activity at vat :ous stages of purification. 2. Several proteinases were examined for their ability to solubilize 2':3...

N-Acetyl-β-D-hexosaminidase (β-HexNAc’ase) (EC 3.2.1.52) was purified from rice seeds (Oryza sativa L. var. Dongjin) using ammonium sulfate (80%) precipitation, Sephadex G150, CM-Sephadex, and DEAE-Sephadex chromatography, sequentially. The activities were separated into 7 fractions (F1F7) by CM-Sephadex chromatography. Among them, F6 was further purified to homogeneity with a 13.0% yield and 1...
