A interação do alaranjado G com proteína foi investigada pela técnica de voltametria. O alaranjado G, em solução tampão Britton-Robinson (B-R), pH 2,0, mostrou um pico voltamétrico irreversível de redução, a –0,17V (vs. SCE) utilizando mercúrio como eletrodo de trabalho. A adição de albumina de soro humano (HSA) à solução de alaranjado G, resultou no decréscimo do pico de corrente de redução, a...

Rabbit hemorrhagic disease is caused by a calicivirus, rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV), which is responsible for high mortality in domestic and wild European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus). RHDV strains were sequenced from wild European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus algirus) collected in the Azorean island of Pico, Portugal. Phylogenetic analyses showed that the Pico RHDV strains dive...

Pico and nanoplankton communities from the Southwest Atlantic Ocean along the Brazilian Bight are poorly described. The hydrography in this region is dominated by a complex system of layered water masses, which includes the warm and oligotrophic Tropical Water (TW), the cold and nutrient rich South Atlantic Central Water (SACW) and the Coastal Water (CW), which have highly variable properties. ...

PURPOSE Bowel preparation with sodium phosphate was recently prohibited by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is safe and effective; however, it is difficult to drink. To identify an easy bowel preparation method for colonoscopy, we evaluated three different bowel preparation regimens regarding their efficacy and patient satisfaction. METHODS In this randomized, ...

BACKGROUND Aquatic exercise is recommended by the Osteoarthritis Research Society (OARSI), by the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) and by the European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) as a nonpharmacological method of controlling the knee osteoarthritis (KOA) symptoms. Moreover, given that weight loss results in a reduction of the load that is exerted upon the knee during daily activitie...

Differential distribution of nonbreeding Least Sandpipers (Calidris minutilla) according to sex, bill, and wing length was documented using capture data from six locations between California and Ecuador. The distribution of age classes did not vary with latitude. Females, which are slightly larger than males, migrated further south. Wing length increased toward the south for both males and fema...

Recent work has implicated the actin cytoskeleton in tissue size control and tumourigenesis, but how changes in actin dynamics contribute to hyperplastic growth is still unclear. Overexpression of Pico, the only Drosophila Mig-10/RIAM/Lamellipodin adapter protein family member, has been linked to tissue overgrowth via its effect on the myocardin-related transcription factor (Mrtf), an F-actin s...

The microprocessors are used for executing instructions by fetching from memory. The processor interact with other peripherals, it requires additional circuitry .This makes system complexity ,requires large area and high power consumption .To overcome this problem the microprocessor itself capable to handle peripherals up to its limit. This feature comes in Pico Blaze microprocessor. Pico Blaze...

Today, passwords are used everywhere to authenticate users. While they are simple for website administrators and software developers to deploy, from a usability perspective, they are becoming increasingly problematic. This is particularly because maintaining adequate security puts an inordinate number of demands on the passwords (difficult to guess, must not be reused, should be changed regular...
