A series of proton exchange membranes based on sulfonated multiblock copolymers with three polysulfone (PSU) and polyphenylsulfone (PPSU) ratios (50/50, 60/40 75/25) are prepared following a synthesis strategy that aims to achieve microphase separation. selective sulfonation PSU blocks was observed in high proportion PSU. The water uptake is higher these materials (31% 57% for SPES 50/50 75/25,...

Monomeric (75) IgM was measured in 25 patients with primarybiliary cirrhosis and 25 ageand se~matched controls by simpledouble immunodiffusion in a polyacrylamide gel. 75 IqM was detectedin a quarter of the patients and~_none of the controls.The presence of 75 IgM was related to the elevation of totalIgM as measured by the radial immunodiffusion techniques.Patients with ...

BACKGROUND Indirect evidence suggests that optimal vitamin D status is achieved with a serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentration >75 nmol/L. OBJECTIVE We aimed to determine the intake of vitamin D(3) needed to raise serum 25(OH)D to >75 nmol/L. DESIGN The design was a 6-mo, prospective, randomized, double-blinded, double-dummy, placebo-controlled study of vitamin D(3) supplementatio...

Background: The world is facing a big challenge of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Herbs have tremendous potential antimicrobial
 activities. This study was aimed to find out the activity aqueous ethanol extracts Curcuma longa (CL) and Withania somnifera (WS) individually in different ratios formulations.
 Materials methods: CL WS were extracted predefined ratio medium, condensed form...

OBJECTIVE The relationship between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) concentrations (nmol/L) and the prevalence of early age-related macular degeneration (AMD) was investigated in participants of the Carotenoids in Age-Related Eye Disease Study. METHODS Stereoscopic fundus photographs, taken from 2001 to 2004, assessed AMD status. Baseline (1994-1998) serum samples were available for 25(OH)...

This study used a factorial randomized block design. The first factor is the proportion of Gracilaria verrucosa seaweed flour with white glutinous rice (P): (P1) 75%:25%, (P2) 50%:50%, and (P3)25%:75%, second concentration CMC (K): (K1) 2%, (K2) 4%, (K3) 6%. data were analyzed using analysis variance, followed by BNJ test (Honest Significant Difference) at 5% level, organoleptic was Friedman te...

OBJECTIVE To examine the association between 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) levels and the risk of multiple sclerosis (MS) in blood samples collected prospectively and during gestation. METHODS In this nested case-control study, 2 population-based biobanks with 291,500 samples from 164,000 persons collected since 1975 in the northern half of Sweden were used. We identified prospectively collec...

PURPOSE To evaluate the effects of sustained deep inspiration in the prevention of postoperative pulmonary complications, the hormonal and immunological responses in patients submitted to abdominal surgery. METHODS This randomized clinical trial study included 75 patients submitted to abdominal surgery, of which 36 were randomly allocated in the experimental group and underwent sustained deep...
