Aerosols are readily transported on airstreams through building sanitary plumbing and sewer systems, and those containing microbial pathogens (known as bioaerosols) are recognized as contributors to i…
Important kinetic aspects of renin reaction were studied in order to evaluate the parameters that regulate the formation rate of angiotensin I. This rate decreased throughout the incubation period of …
Phosphatidylserine decarboxylase activity has been characterized in membrane preparations from Clostridium butyricum ATCC 19398. A particulate fraction was shown to catalyze the formation of phosphati…
A first-principles-based effective Hamiltonian is used to investigate finite-temperature properties of ferroelectric nanocomposites made of periodic arrays of ferroelectric nanowires embedded in a mat…
The plasma fibrinogen fractions HMW (mw 340,000) and LMW (mw 305,000) were prepared from purified (beta-alanine precipitated) fibrinogen by step-wise precipitation with ammonium sulfate. The thrombin …
A column-switching high-performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the determination of oxiracetam in plasma and urine. A sample of plasma (250 microliters) or urine (10 microliters) …
A density functional theory (DFT) study of {CoNO}(8) cobalt nitrosyl complexes containing the [n,n]tropocoronand ligand (TC-n,n) has revealed a sharp reduction of singlet-triplet gaps as the structure…
BACKGROUND: Commercially available additive solutions (ASs) require 30% to 35% plasma for optimal storage of platelets (PLTs). PLTs suspended in M-sol, a bicarbonate-based experimental platelet additi…
Phototrophy and chemotrophy are two dominant modes of microbial metabolism. To date, non-phototrophic microorganisms have been excluded from the solar light-centered phototrophic metabolism. Here we r…
A simplistic convenient "arm-first" catalytic synthesis method is demonstrated to render soft unimolecular star polyethylene nanoparticles. Low-dispersity polyethylene arms of controllable length and …
A sensitive (method detection limit, 2.0 microg As L(-1)) colorimetric determination of trace As(v) and As(iii) concentrations in the presence of soluble phosphorus (P) concentrations in soil/water ex…
In a standing wave tank responses of fish to sound stimuli used to investigate the hearing capacity of fish may perhaps be affected by unintended stimulation of the lateral line. Uniform oscillatory w…
An Al(OH)(3)·Cr(OH)(3) nanoparticle preparation procedure and its catalytic effect and mechanism on thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate (AP) were investigated using transmission electron mic…
In Taiwan and China, calcium carbonate is commonly added as a filler during incense production to lower the cost. This study has found an unexpected benefit for this practice: it reduces particulate e…
To determine if adaptation to low calcium (Ca) diets is impaired by magnesium (Mg) deficiency, weanling rats were pair-fed control (700 mg Mg/kg diet) or low Mg (70 mg Mg/kg diet) diets containing 500…
It is well known that maternal stress during the gestation and lactation periods induces abnormal behavior in the offspring and causes a lowering of the offspring's body weight. Various causes of mate…
The effect of dietary-induced vitamin B-6 (B-6) deficiency on the intake of the taste solutions, sodium chloride (NaCl), sodium saccharin (NaSacc), quinine sulfate (QS), and hydrochloric acid (HCl) wa…
Measurements of total, filterable and DGT-labile concentrations of nine metals (Al, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Pb, Mn, Ni and Zn) have been made at five sites up to 4.2km from a deep sea tailings outfall operate…
A single-step procedure is described for isolation of alpha 1-inhibitor of proteases (alpha 1-IP) from human blood plasma using affinity chromatography on immunosorbent containing monoclonal antibodie…
The role of subendothelial fibronectin in platelet interaction with subendothelium was studied. Human umbilical artery subendothelium was exposed to flowing blood containing 111In-labeled platelets in…
