Fatty acid profiling has become a very useful and effective tool in the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of several diseases with cardiovascular disease being particularly important. In order to arrive at accurate conclusions that would help promote the health of individuals plagued by such diseases, not only excellent laboratory methods are required, but also very important monitoring respo...

Yoghurt is a dairy product from the second fermentation of Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) as starter, namely Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus which live in symbiosis. acid bacteria are that capable producing lactic acid, hydrogen peroxide, antimicrobials other metabolic products have positive effect on health body at low environmental pH. Red dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhiz...

in this work, removal of c. i. acid red 14 was investigated by pumice stone as a low cost adsorbent. various parameters such as initial dye solution, contact time and ph were studied. removal of dye were increased by increasing of contact time and initial dye solution and deceased by increasing of ph. three isotherm models were studied. linear and non-linear regression analyses were used for de...

Suberin from the roots of carrots (Daucus carota), parsnip (Pastinaca sativa), rutabaga (Brassica napobrassica), turnip (Brassica rapa), red beet (Beta vulgaris), and sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) was isolated by a combination of chemical and enzymatic techniques. Finely powdered suberin was depolymerized with 14% BF(3) in methanol, and soluble monomers (20-50% of suberin) were fractionated in...

OBJECTIVE To investigate whether high doses of folic acid supplementation in early pregnancy are associated with child neurodevelopment at 18 months of age. DESIGN The study uses data from the prospective mother-child cohort 'Rhea' study. Pregnant women completed an interviewer-administered questionnaire on folic acid supplementation at 14-18 weeks of gestation. Neurodevelopment at 18 months ...

in the present study the distribution of rubella hemagglutination inhibition (hi) antibody titer in the sera of 1486 women of 18 to 25 years old residing in tehran were examined. sera were pretreated with acid washed kaolin and pigeon red blood cell. titers below 1:10 and in some studies below 1:20 are considered nonimmune to rubella. our results show that 10, 29% of studied population had hi a...

Little is known about the uptake or metabolism of essential fatty acids (EFAs) in various mammalian organs. Thus, the distribution of deuterated alpha-linolenic acid (18:3n-3) and linoleic acid (18:2n-6) and their metabolites was studied using a stable isotope tracer technique. Rats were orally administered a single dose of a mixture (20 mg each) of ethyl D5-18:3n-3 and D5-18:2n-6, and 25 tissu...

SBA-15 grafted with N-(4-(trimethylsilyl) butyl)-9H-fluorene-9-amine was synthesized by a simplestrategy and applied to removal of Acid Red 33 and Acid Black 194 from aqueous solutions. SBA-15 was synthesized and Functionalized according to procedure in the literature. Fluorenefunctionalized SBA-15 was showed the BET surface area 200 m2g-1 and pore diameter 4.2 nm,based on adsorption-desorption...

We have studied the changes in amino acid transport in fetal erythroid cells isolated from rat fetal liver at different gestation days. Our results show that System A transport as measured by the Na+-dependent uptake of 2-(methylamino)isobutyric acid (MeAIB) was conspicuous at day 13 but virtually disappeared between days 16 and 18. In contrast, the activity of System ASC measured by the Na+-de...
