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...

The uniporter TAT1 (Slc16a10) mediates the facilitated diffusion of aromatic amino acids (AAAs) across basolateral membranes of kidney, small intestine and liver epithelial cells, and across the plasma membrane of non-epithelial cells like skeletal myocytes. Its role for body AA homeostasis has now been investigated using newly generated TAT1 (Slc16a10) defective mice (tat1(-/-)). These mice gr...

Essential amino acids (EAA) stimulate skeletal muscle mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling and protein synthesis. It has recently been reported that an increase in amino acid (AA) transporter expression during anabolic conditions is rapamycin-sensitive. The purpose of this study was to determine whether an increase in EAA availability increases AA transporter expression in...

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...

using uv-vis spectrophotometic method, the formation constants for interaction of cd2+(aq) andco2+(aq) ions with l-alanine were experimentally studied at ph = 4.1 ± 0.01 (50mm of potassiumhydrogen phthalate buffer), ionic strength of 0.1m potassium nitrate and at 5 differenttemperatures 15,20, 25,30 and 35°c. the optical absorption spectra of mixtures containingconsidered cations and l-alanine ...

In an earlier study Oreochromis niloticus fingerlings (initial weight, 4.31±0.27 g) were fed diets with dietary protein levels, ranging from 7.30% 44.24% dry matter (dm) for eight weeks. Using growth performance and food conversion ratio, the dietary protein requirement of the fingerlings was estimated at 33.32% dietary protein (dm). In this study the dietary essential amino acid requirements f...

amino acids have been extensively used in several processes of the pharmaceutical and food industries. treatments for the recovery and reuse of the wastewaters generated from these processes are few and little known. this work aims at studying the influence of different variables on the sorption of l-cysteine, contained in aqueous solutions, on clinoptilolite mineral. l-cysteine (cys) was sorbe...
