abstract food preservatives are often added to food as preservation method. mostly one preservative alone cannot preserve a product effectively. so it is required to create a preservation system to overcome limitations derived from each preservative. using proper selection of different preservatives may lead to significant practical benefits. in this investigation, resistant strain of bacillus ...

We have previously observed that the urinary excretion of citrate is reduced to low levels in rats treated with the carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, acetazoleamide (Diamox®g) (1). This first experiment was prompted by the fact that the elevated serum chloride and decreased serum bicar-. bonate concentrations, and the fixation of the urine pH at approximately 7 or above following administration of ...

The salt of milk constitutes a small part of milk (8-9 g.L(-1)); this fraction contains calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium for the main cations and inorganic phosphate, citrate and chloride for the main anions. In milk, these ions are more or less associated between themselves and with proteins. Depending on the type of ion, they are diffusible (cases of sodium, potassium and chloride) or...

Mammalian spinal tracts in situ demonstrate a phase of marked hyperexcitability during hypoxia or on the application of an excess of potassium or citrate ion. This is in keeping with the fact that they also show post-spike supernormality as well as hyperexcitability under cathodal polarization (17). Behavior of this kind indicates that central axons carry a well developed L fraction of membrane...

Neither the infectivity nor the morphology of the mouse mammary tumor virus is appreciably affected by abrupt dilutions from strong solutions of cesium chloride, sodium chloride, or sodium iothalamate. In the purification of this virus by density gradient centrifugation, it is not necessary to use solutions of low osmotic activity. In sucrose, sodium iothalamate, potassium tartrate, or citrate,...

Metabolic alkalosis commonly results from excessive hydrochloric acid (HCl), potassium (K(+)) and water (H2O) loss from the stomach or through the urine. The plasma anion gap increases in non-hypoproteinemic metabolic alkalosis due to an increased negative charge equivalent on albumin and the free ionized calcium (Ca(++)) content of plasma decreases. The mean citrate load in all patients was 87...
