Complications related to extraluminal migration of ingested kebab (sosatie) sticks are infrequently diagnosed in small animals. A total of 8 cases diagnosed with extragastric migration of ingested kebab sticks were retrospectively evaluated. No significant breed or sex predilection was found but there was a tendency for animals to present at a younger age (less than 3 years). Clinical signs (of...

Microtubule plus ends are dynamic ends that interact with other cellular structures. Microtubule plus end tracking proteins are considered to play important roles in the regulation of microtubule plus ends. Recent studies revealed that EB1 is the central regulator for microtubule plus end tracking proteins by recruiting them to microtubule plus ends through direct interaction. Here we report th...

Effect of processing conditions like time and temperature of processing and methods of cooking on physico-chemical and textural attributes of shami kebab were studied. Shami kebab was deep fat fried at 120°C for 5 min and 170°C for 2 min and grilled at 140 and 180°C for 5 and 3 min respectively. Variation in cooking yield do not differ significantly (p < 0.05) at 120°C deep fat frying and 180°C...

The electrophoresis of lambda-DNA is observed in a microscale converging channel where the center-of-masses trajectories of DNA molecules are tracked to measure instantaneous electrophoretic (EP) mobilities of DNA molecules of various stretch lengths and conformations. Contrary to the usual assumption that DNA mobility is a constant, independent of field and DNA length in free solution, we find...
