Antimutagenic substances were purified from a culture supernatant of Lactobacillus plantarum KLAB21 cells isolated from kimchi, a Korean traditional fermented vegetable, and their characteristics were investigated. The antimutagenic substances were separated into two fractions by DEAE-cellulose ion-exchange column chromatography, which were designated the R1 and R2 fractions. The R1 fraction wa...

Human red cells sensitized with one of the Rh antisera (Ripley) form rosettes (Fc-rosette) with human B lymphocytes and the rosettes are well inhibited by aggregated human IgG. As synovial fluids from patients with rheumatoid arthritis are usually hypocomplementaemic and frequently contain immune complexes, they were used for the inhibition of Fc-rosette formations in this study. The Fc-rosette...

The purpose of this paper is a social one, to present various experimental thermal analyses sports footwear identify the areas that ensure best foot ventilation for comfort in movement. mechanical properties analyzed were determined on Nano Indenter Agilent G200, with help which Young’s modulus was according ISO 14577. Thermography measurements performed at Oradea University Sports Club. FLIR S...

The urinary concentration of fibrin-fibrinogen degradation products (F.D.P.) was measured in 90 patients with proteinuria above 2 g/1 and correlated with proteinuria, differential protein clearances, serum urea and creatinine, and renal biopsy findings. There was a linear correlation (r equals 0-7; P less than 0-001) between the urinary F.D.P. excretion and the selectivity of the proteinuria su...

C3b inactivator accelerator (A-C3bINA) was isolated from human plasma. An antiserum produced against the purified protein gave a reaction of identity with beta 1 H, a well-documented contaminant of C3 preparations. Beta 1 H appears to be composed of a single polypeptide chain containing a significant quantity of carbohydrate, and having a sedimentation coefficient of 5.6 on analytical, and 6.4 ...

Four PA6/graphite (G) composites systems were made. Two in situ polymerisation equivalent mixing strain and two melt extrusion of processing strain. The effective modulus the carbons, room temperature storage at 80 ⁰C evaluated using Dynamic Mechanical thermal Analysis (DMTA). Melt processing, was employed to make PA6/carbon composite over a range loadings Graphite Nano Platelets (GNP) fillers....

By using a synthetic deoxyoligonucleotide probe designed to recognize the structural gene for cytochrome cc3 from Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough, a 3.7-kb XhoI genomic DNA fragment containing the cc3 gene was isolated. The gene encodes a precursor polypeptide of 58.9 kDa, with an NH2-terminal signal sequence of 31 residues. The mature polypeptide (55.7 kDa) has 16 heme binding sites of th...

In the current study, we report for the first time that grain components of barley, rice, wheat and maize can inhibit the activity of Aspergillus ficuum phytase. The phytase inhibition is dose dependent and varies significantly between cereal species, between cultivars of barley and cultivars of wheat and between Fusarium graminearum infected and non-infected wheat grains. The highest endpoint ...
