Ras cheeses were manufactured using aqueous extract of globe artichoke or artichoke flowers (Cynara scolymus) proteinase as coagulant were compared to calf rennet. There were slight differences between chemical composition of cheese made using vegetable coagulants or calf rennet. Cheeses manufactured with artichoke extract as coagulant exhibited higher (p < 0.05) levels of water soluble nitroge...

in recent years, a potential connection between human intake of aluminum and alzheimer’s disease has drawn attention to the aluminum concentration in drinking water. it is therefore of interest to investigate the aluminum concentration m drinking water, produced under different circumstances. a random selection of 152 water samples were taken by the supply source including ground, surface and a...

Background: Arshas is one among the Mahagadas (major diseases) which causes pain and obstruction in anal passage. It a rakta mamsa doshaja vyadhi (disease related to blood muscle). can be correlated hemorrhoids. caused due varicosity of hemorrhoidal plexus makes it surgically curable disease. In Ayurveda, various treatments have been mentioned for management arshas (hemorrhoid) such as chedhana...

The aim of the present work was to produce a polyaluminium ferric silicate chloride (PAFSiC) coagulant from acidic and alkaline wastewater of purifying graphite by roasting, and subsequently to evaluate coagulation efficiency of the reagent by treating surface water from the Yellow River as well as municipal wastewater in comparison with the conventional coagulant polyaluminium chloride (PAC). ...

Factor IX concentrates have been widely advocated in the treatment of haemophilic patients with factor VIII inhibitors. Five such patients were given the 'activated' factor IX concentrate--factor VIII inhibitor bypassing activity (Feiba)--for 14 separate bleeding episodes. In six of the episodes, including two with external blood loss, bleeding progressed in spite of treatment. In none of the o...

The research aimed to apply the Taguchi method for techno-economical evaluation of Cr+6 removal using the electro-coagulation process with the aid of two different coagulants (FeCl3 and PAC). Taguchi orthogonal array L27 (313) was applied for analyzing the effect of four variables including initial pH, reaction time, current density and coagulant types in an attempt to improve the chromium remo...

Integrally-skinned asymmetric Polyetherimide/Poly (vinyl alcohol) (PEI/PVA) hollow fber membranes for pervaporation dehydration were fabricated by non-solvent induced phase inversion. PVA inside the PEI matrix could be crosslinked to provide membrane performance stability during long term operation. The effects of different PEI/PVA blend ratio, external coagulant type and...

Nonfat (0% fat), reduced-fat (11% fat), and control (19% fat) mozzarella cheeses were made using direct acidification to test the influence of three levels (0.25X, 1X, and 4X) of coagulant concentration on proteolysis, meltability and rheological properties of cheeses during 60 d of storage at 5 degrees C. Changes in meltability, level of intact alpha(s1)-casein and beta-casein (by capillary el...

Previous studies investigating continuous unfractionated heparin (UFH) therapy report age-related differences in UFH response in children, as measured by APTT and anti-Xa assay. This study determined the age-related response following administration of a single UFH bolus of 75-100 IU/kg in children. Venous blood samples were collected from children (n=56) at 15, 30, 45 and 120 minutes post-UFH....

Seven arginylfluoroalkanes ('arginine fluoroalkyl ketones') were synthesized by using a modified Dakin-West procedure. The structure of benzoyl-Arg-CF2CF3 was analysed by 19F-n.m.r. spectroscopy and m.s. and the compound was shown to exist primarily as a hydrate or cyclic carbinolamine. Arginylfluoroalkanes are good inhibitors of blood-coagulation serine proteinases and were found to be slow-bi...
