Lymphoproliferative disorders are a very heterogeneous group of neoplastic diseases, which originate from malignant transformation of cells of the lymphoid system. Within broad limits, they include at least four main types of diseases: Hodgkin’s disease, the socalled non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas, the chronic lymphoid leukemias and the neoplasms of mature B antibody-producing cells, such as Waldenstr...

A rapid method for quantitative analysis of free fatty acids in virgin coconut oil (VCO) was determined using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Thirty training samples of VCO were prepared by spiking lauric acid to VCO samples covering a range of 0.1% to 5% of free fatty acids. FTIR spectra between 1730 and 1690 cm-1 was used for quantitative determination of free fatty acids. A p...

The objective of this review is to consider the mechanisms by which vitamin D affects muscle and the evidence that vitamin D status is important for muscle performance and fall prevention in older adults. Vitamin D receptors have been identified in human skeletal-muscle cells. Activation of these receptors by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D is involved in the action of vitamin D on the myocyte. Several...

The title compound, [Ru(2)(C(13)H(15)S)(2)(CO)(4)], is a centrosymmetric binuclear metal-carbonyl complex containing an Ru-Ru single bond [2.7511 (8) Å]. Each Ru(I) atom is coordinated by two bridging carbonyl ligands, one terminal carbonyl ligand and one η(5)-cyclo-penta-dienyl group. The complex has a trans conformation and the two cyclo-penta-dienyl ring planes are parallel. The crystal stru...

Evidences and hints, both from the theoretical and experimental side, of exotic baryon resonances with B = S, have been with us for the last thirty years. The poor status of the general acceptance of these Z resonances is partly due to the prejudice against penta-quark baryons and partly due to the opinion that a proof of the existence of exotic states must be rigorous. This can refer to the qu...
