effects of sodium salt solutions on physicochemical and sensory characteristics of refrigerated persian sturgeon (acipenser persicus) fillets during 12 days of storage were investigated. fillets were dipped in solutions (2.5% w/v) of sodium acetate (sa), sodium lactate (sl), sodium citrate (sc) and distilled water (as control) for 10 minutes and then packaged. an assessment of tbars, ffa, ph, h...

Blood pressure in patients with essential hypertension is raised by sodium chloride but not by nonchloride sodium salts. Although a high sodium chloride diet is known to augment the pressor response to norepinephrine and angiotensin II, the effect of nonchloride sodium salts on pressor responsiveness has not been studied so far. To examine whether sodium chloride and nonchloride sodium salts ev...

The objective of this study was to investigate the potential of liposomes containing bile salts as an ophthalmic delivery system for tacrolimus to improve corneal permeability. Liposomes containing bile salts, including sodium taurocholate, sodium deoxycholate, and sodium glycocholate, were produced by the thin-film dispersion method with a particle size of approximately 100 nm and an entrapmen...

IN a previous paper [Clifford, 1925] the effects of the halogen salts of sodium, potassium, ammonium, and calcium on salivary digestion were described. These salts were found to vary in their action on ptyalin, some delaying digestion, others being inert, and some increasing the speed of reaching the achromic point. It was thought advisable to continue the investigation with other enzymes, and ...

THE effect of halogen salts on salivary and peptic digestion has been described previously [Clifford, 1925; 1927; 1928], and in this paper an account is given of their action on tryptic digestion. The earliest work on the subject appears to be that of Pfeiffer [1884] who found that, with the exception of sodium carbonate, all salts, especially sodium chloride, retard tryptic digestion. Later, W...

Amiloride-insensitive sodium taste transduction is severely limited by large anions (i.e., gluconate). We found that in a brief-access taste test, sodium-depleted rats exhibited similar levels of increased licking to several sodium salts regardless of anion but did not increase licking to nonsodium salts compared with water. The enhanced licking of sodium salts was abolished in the presence of ...

Exposure of Salmonella enterica to sodium cholate, sodium deoxycholate, sodium chenodeoxycholate, sodium glycocholate, sodium taurocholate, or sodium glycochenodeoxycholate induces the SOS response, indicating that the DNA-damaging activity of bile resides in bile salts. Bile increases the frequency of GC --> AT transitions and induces the expression of genes belonging to the OxyR and SoxRS reg...

effluent from ro (reverse osmosis) systems during recovery gradually becomes concentrated and supersaturated with soluble salts such as calcium carbonate (caco3), calcium sulfate (caso4), barium sulfate (baso4) and silica (sio2). thus we were looking for procedures to prevent precipitation of soluble salts on the membrane surface and decrease membrane permeability. therefore, recovery could be ...

Prion diseases are associated with the conversion of cellular prion protein, PrPC, into a misfolded oligomeric form, PrPSc. Previous studies indicate that salts promote conformational conversion of the recombinant prion protein into a PrPSc-like form. To gain insight into the mechanism of this effect, here we have studied the influence of a number of salts (sodium sulfate, sodium fluoride, sodi...
