Appropriate addition of phosphate salt in food can improve the quality and taste. However, extensive intake may lead to some human diseases such as hyperphosphatemia renal insufficiency. Thus, it is essential establish a cost-effective, convenient, sensitive, selective method for monitoring ion (Pi) ensure control. In this work, Co-based metal-organic frameworks (Co-MOF) nanomaterial with dual ...

Selection of genotypes based on high value of heritability and forecasted genetic conditions would be an effective method for improvement of wheat cultivars. The present investigation was carried out to estimate the genetic variability of agro-physiological characters using biometrical genetic techniques in 20 bread wheat genotypes under irrigated condition. For this purpose an experiment was c...

We have previously shown that inhibition of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase severely attenuates the activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (Erk) following engagement of integrin/fibronectin receptors and that Raf is the critical target of PI 3-kinase regulation [1]. To investigate how PI 3-kinase regulates Raf, we examined sites on Raf1 required for regulation by PI 3-kinase and...

This study assessed the active role of the portal vein endothelium in the functional loss of pancreatic islet (PI) grafts, considered in the context of PI transplantation for treatment of type I diabetes mellitus. We hypothesized that PI engraftment may be jeopardized by portal vein endothelial cell-induced activation of host T cells. We designed an in vitro system using portal vein endothelial...

In this study the formation of water-soluble and water-insoluble complexes between bovine serum albumin (BSA) and biocompatible poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone-co-acrylic acid) (P(VP-co-AA); 2:1), anionic polymer, was studied at different protein, polymer concentrations and pH values. BSAP(VP-co-AA) complexes were studied by turbidimetric, gravimetric and chromatographic methods. Stability of the pr...

Four isostructural, two-dimensional (2D) grid-type coordination polymers bridged by carboxylate groups, namely [Co(8-qoac)(HCOO)] (1 x Co), [Mn(8-qoac)(HCOO)] (1 x Mn), [Co(8-qoac)(CH3COO)] (2 x Co) and [Mn(8-qoac)(CH3COO)] (2 x Mn) (8-qoacH = quinoline-8-oxy-acetate acid), were constructed to study the modulation effects of spin carriers and interlayer interactions on the magnetic behaviours. ...
