Chemical compatibility with a wide range of materials is among the features that has driven use alkoxysilanes as consolidants in built structures. Such particularly important cementitious where reaction portlandite may generate C-S-H gel, one main hydration phases OPC. The matrix complex system, however, and its many alkoxysilanes, while poorly understood, determine treatment efficacy. This art...

1. More than one mode of transport can be observed for concentrative uptake of a-aminoisobutyric acid (AIB) by rat kidney cortex slices when the initial concentration of AIB in the medium is varied between 0.2 and 16 mM. 2. The relative contribution from both systems to the total observed uptake at various concentrations of AIB was calculated. The K, values for the two systems were 3.87 rnM and...

We investigated the inhibitory effect of extracts of blackcurrant (Ribes nigrum L.) from New Zealand and Poland on 4 strains of influenza virus (IFV) by the inhibition of virus adsorption; pandemic flu from 2009-2010 (IFV-AH1pdm), Hong Kong flu (IFV-AH3), oseltamivir phosphate-resistant Russian flu (IFV-AH1tamr) and influenza virus type B (IFV-B). The inhibitory effect of the extracts of blackc...

the major hydraulic phase in all the calcium aluminate cements including ciment fondue is ca (caal2o4). once hydrated, it starts to form the hexagonal crystals of cah10 and c2ah8 that depending on the time and temperature of hydration convert to the cubic crystals of c3ah6 and ah3. the nature, sequence, crystallinity and microstructure of hydrated phases of commercial refractory calcium alumina...

The objective of this paper is to investigate the use calcium aluminate cements as alternative within context nuclear waste stabilization by solidification. Using an external 60Co source, effect γ-radiation on H2 gas production one cement-based materials (cement “Ciment Fondu”) and its stable hydrates, was studied. amount produced these cement pastes found be much lower (up five times less) tha...

Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) is a critical protein for photosynthesis. With small subunits, RBCSs catalyze the fixation of CO2 onto ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP). However, gene characteristics peanut RBCSs, and relationship between their expression growth under nitrogen (N)-deficiency conditions are not yet known. This study targeted impact sufficient N (5 mmol/L...

Calcium sulfoaluminate cement (CSA) was used to stabilize a type of marine soft soil in Dalian China. Unconfined compressive strength (UCS) CSA-stabilized tested and compared ordinary Portland (OPC); meanwhile the influence amounts gypsum CSA contents stabilized soils on were investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD) tests employed detect generated hydration products, scanning electron microscopy (...

OBJECTIVE The RCA alpha block (Regulators of Complement Activation, 1q32) contains critical complement regulatory genes such as CR1 and MCP. This study examined RCA alpha block haplotype associations with both disease susceptibility and diversification of the anti-Ro/La autoantibody response in primary Sjögren syndrome (pSS). METHODS 115 patients with pSS and 98 controls were included in the ...
