Total and free amino acid composition of germinating cotton seeds (Gossypium hirsutum L.) was determined. The germinating seeds were separated into cotyledon and developing axis fractions daily and the composition of each tissue was summed to get the whole seed composition. By separating the developing seeds into these two tissue fractions, and determining total and free amino acids, a balance ...

in this research, so3h-functionalizedphthalimide (sfp) has been prepared through simple reaction of phthalimide with chlorosulfonic acid, and characterized using ft-ir, 1h nmr, 13c nmr, sem (scanning electron microscopy), mass and tg (thermal gravimetric) spectra. afterward, the solid acid has been utilized as an efficient, green, heterogeneous and recyclable catalyst for the solvent-free synth...

cellulose sulfuric acid was used as an efficient biopolymer-based catalyst for the synthesis of tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline-2,4,6-triones and hexahydro-2h-pyrazolo[5,4-b]quinoline-6-ones via three component reaction of aldehyde, 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexadione and 6-amino-1,3-dimethyluracil or 5-amino-3-methyl-1-phenypyrazole under solvent-free conditions at 90 oc. the major advantages o...

a study was conducted to evaluate efficacyof wheat based vs. corn based diets on growth performance, carcass traits,blood parameters, jejunum morphological development, immunity, cecal microflora and excreta moisture in broiler chicks fed according to digestible essential amino acid profile. one hundred forty day old ross 308 male broiler chicks randomly distributed into ten separated floor pen...

brachystegia eurycoma is predominantly grown in the eastern region of nigeria. its seed is used in food majorly as a soup condiment, flavouring agent and soup thickener. the proximate, mineral and amino acid compositions were determined on raw and processed seeds (boiled, fermented and roasted) using standard analytical techniques. the processing methods showed deviations in nutrients from the ...

in recent years considerable interest has been focused on the plasma amino acid patterns as a possible index of protein malnutrition, in children. thus a change in the ratio of non-essential to essential amino acids is considered to be significant in the development of protein malnutrition. the present paper reports a simplified and rapid chromatographic procedure for the determination of this ...

background: hypothermia is an important complication during surgery, especially in children and is highly associated with serious adverse outcomes. one of the preventive methods is the intraoperative administration of amino acids, which can be effective through increasing thermogenesis and stimulating energy consumption. no studies have been conducted in this regard on children; therefore, we e...
