the aromatic plants are rich in essential oils characterized by a notable antimicrobial activity; for this reason, these substances can be used to delay or inhibit the growth of pathogenic or spoilage microorganisms. in this study, log probability percentage (log p%) of growth of the clostridium botulinum type a spores in brain heart infusion (bhi) broth as affected by various levels of zataria...

Inhibitory effects of cernitin pollen extract (CN-009), consisting of T-60 (a water-soluble extract) and GBX (an acetone-soluble extract) at a ratio of 20:1, were investigated in rat urethral smooth muscle and diaphragm. In the urethral smooth muscle, CN-009 (3.0 x 10(-4) approximately 3.0 x 10(-3) g/ml), T-60 and GBX (corresponding to CN-009) concentration-dependently inhibited the noradrenali...

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a polygenic, systemic, autoimmune disease. Copy number variants (CNVS) have been discovered to be associated with a number of complex disorders. We undertook the current study to explore the potential associations between genomic CNVS and SLE in Chinese Han population. In the discovery stage, seven SLE patients were examined with the high-density comparativ...

PURPOSES To examine the factors related to the choice of cytoreductive nephrectomy (CN) for patients with metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (mCCRCC), and compare the population-based survival rates of patients treated with or without surgery in the modern targeted therapy era. MATERIALS AND METHODS From 2006 to 2009, patients with mCCRCC were identified from SEER database. The factor...

The title compound, (C8H20N)[Fe(C44H28N4)(CN)2]·CH2Cl2 or (Et4N)[Fe(TPP)(CN)2], was recrystallized from di-chloro-methane-diethyl ether. The compound crystallizes with the two unique halves of the Fe(III) porphyrinato complex, one tetra-ethyl-ammonium cation and one inter-stitial di-chloro-methane mol-ecule within the asymmetric unit. Both anionic Fe(III) complexes exhibit inversion symmetry. B...

Objectives: In this prospective preclinical study, we evaluated T1-weighted signal intensity in the deep cerebellar nuclei (CN) and globus pallidus (GP) up to 24 days after repeated administration of linear and macrocyclic gadoliniumbased contrast agents (GBCAs) using homologous imaging and evaluation methods as in the recently published retrospective clinical studies. In a second part of the s...

Actinidin was used to hydrolyse proteins in whey protein isolate (WPI) and milk concentrate (MPC) reduce immunoreactivity of β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) αs1-casein (αs1-CN). Samples were incubated at an enzyme substrate ratio 1:100 (5.21 units actinidin activity g−1 protein) 10 or 60 °C for up 31 5 h, respectively. Protein hydrolysis determined by the degree SDS-PAGE. Antigenicity hydrolysates β-LG ...

The conditions of coulom9tric bromometric determination of cyanides in weak alkaline medium of the borate buffer solution are described. I t is possible to titrate free cyanides and the cyanides linked coordinately in Cr(CN*)jp and Cr(CN)6N0 ~. The equivalence point of titration is indicated biamperometrically. The presence of air oxygen influences the results of free cyanide determination. The...
