The sound speed and the density of a series of blood samples was measured in a temperature range from 20 degrees C to 40 degrees C. An expression was derived from a least square fit which related the sound speed in human blood in this temperature range to the blood density and to the total protein concentration, respectively. The data were obtained from the measurement of sound speed and densit...

a completely randomized design (crd) with three replications was conducted at greenhouse of urmia university in 2013 to study the effect of different methyl jasmonate concentrations (0, 0.1 and 0.5 mm) on the activity of enzymes polyphenol oxidase, phenylalanine ammonia lyase, catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, guaiacol peroxidase and total protein content in basil. activity of the enzymes and tot...

Introduction: To assess the salivary composition of proteins and minerals in smokers compared with non-smokers.   Materials and Methods: In this study we compared the total protein and Ca, Na, K, Mg, Pb of whole saliva in two groups of men (28 smokers and 31nonsmokers) aged between 29-41years.   Results: Fifty-nine participants were evaluated. The mean age was 33.14±5.32 years among smo...

background:the dynamic binding capacity (dbc) of a chromatography matrix in protein purification is the amount of the total protein absorbed into the matrix, before occurrence of a significant break in the breakthrough curve. optimization of the process criteria for maximum dbc avoids extra process scale-up and reduces the processing time, costs and protein loss. taguchi method is a simple usef...

The sunlight has an important role in metabolism of calcium ( Ca) and phosphorus ( P). The sunlight has different effects in different places. Therefore  the pattern of metabolic disease depends upon geographical place. In this investigation two groups of workers( one group working in shadow and the other under the sunshine) were chosen as control and experimental groups respectively.these two ...

infection with hepatitis c virus (hcv) is a worldwide problem. among hcv proteins, core antigen (ag), besides its importance for diagnostic application is a prime candidate for component of a vaccine. herein, we report results of studies on production of the hydrophilic domain of core ag (2-122) in native conformation by an arabinose induction system in e.coli and the primary characterization o...

  The effects of gentamicin, lithium and combination of these drugs on ultrastructural morphology of rat submandibular glands were studied. Daily intraperitoneal injection of 40 mg/kg of gentamicin which causes chronic salivary gland toxicity, led to a marked decrease in gland's dry weight and total protein concentration but did not affect DNA content. Electron micrograph (EM) of submandibular ...
