OBJECTIVES To assess and compare the bioavailability of three different oral dosage forms of vitamin A in rats. The formulations included vitamin A self-nanoemulsified drug delivery (SNEDD) optimized formulation-filled capsule (F1), vitamin A SNEDD optimized formulation compressed tablet (F2) and vitamin A oily solution-filled capsules without any additives (control, F3). MATERIALS AND METHOD...

This study reports on the acoustic properties of the front vowel /i/ and the fronted back vowel /u/ in Standard Southern British English (SSBE). These two vowels are realized with very similar (and for some tokens overlapping) values of F2, so that F2 does not seem to be a reliable acoustic cue for the distinction between the two vowels. To test further possible cues to the English front-back c...

The estimate of variance component and genetic parameters for soybean grain yield in the northwestern region state Rio Grande do Sul is 17% due to effects 83% environment, management, practices used. Thus, we aimed evaluate performance quantitative qualitative agronomic characteristics progenies segregating generations F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, as well interrelationships these variables their benefit...

Three major forms of cytosolic glutathione S-transferase (designated F1, F2, and F3 transferases according to increasing isoelectric points) were purified to homogeneity from liver of DBA/2J mice, primarily by CM-cellulose and hydroxylapatite chromatography. The purified enzymes were shown to have specific activities of 104, 281, and 143 units/mg, respectively, when assayed with 1 m~ each of l-...

Uni-2, a dominant mutation that affects leaf development in Phaseolus vulgaris, is described. The mutant type is characterized by the production of unifoliolate true leaves as opposed to the trifoliolate true leaves that characterize the wild-type phenotype of this species. Segregation data from the F2, F3, and F4 generations of crosses between the unifoliolate mutant and trifoliolate genotypes...
