Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractS-Allyl-Cysteines Reduce Amelioration of Aluminum Induced Toxicity in RatsSadhana ShrivastavaProblem statement: Aluminum (Al) is a trivalent cation found in its ionic form in most kinds of animal tissues and in natural waters everywhere. Approach: It is a potent neurotoxin and has been associated in the pathogenesis of several clinical disorders including Alzheimer’s disease. Results: The aim of the study was to demonstrate the protective effect of S-Allyl-Cysteines (SAC) against … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 12 Aug 2011 · 7,748 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Epoxidized and Non-Epoxidized Fatty Diethanolamides by High Performance Liquid Chromatography and Gas ChromatographyChoy Sin Lee, Song Cang LeeProblem statement: This study was carried out for the characterization of epoxidized and non-epoxidized fatty diethanolamides by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Gas Chromatography (GC). Approach: The fatty diethanolamides were synthesized by reacting 40% (w/w) of Epoxidized Palm Olein (EPOo) with 60% (w/w) Refined Bleached Deodorized Plam Kernel Olein (RBDPKOo) with Diethanolamine (DEA) at 110°C for 5 h. Results: … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,449 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Maturity Stage of Papaya Maradol on Physiological and Biochemical ParametersLaura E. Gayosso-García Sancho, Elhadi M. Yahia, Miguel Angel Martínez-Téllez, Gustavo Adolfo González-AguilarProblem statement: Nowadays, the worldwide increase in diseases has motivated consumers to increase the intake of fruits and vegetables, in response to various research reports indicating that fruits and vegetables can help prevent certain types of illnesses, due to their potentially high antioxidant properties. We evaluated the effect of the stage of ripeness of papaya fruit (Carica papaya L.) on … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 11,266 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRefractive Index and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectra of Virgin Coconut Oil and Virgin Olive OilW. Mahmood Mat Yunus, Yap Wing Fen, Lim Mei YeeThis study presents the refractive index and FTIR spectra of virgin coconut oil and virgin olive oil that have been measured in the wavelength range from 491.0-667.8 nm. The measurement of refractive index was carried out using a minimum deviation method while the IR transmission ranging from 600-4000 cm-1 was measured using FTIR spectrometer respectively. The measurements were done at … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 13,159 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCholesterol Metabolism in Brain and Skin Fibroblasts from Sarda Breed Sheep With Scrapie-resistant and Scrapie-susceptible GenotypesAlessandra Pani, Claudia Abete, Claudia Norfo et al.Scrapie is a fatal spongiform encephalopathy of sheep, a transmissible form of prion disease caused by neuronal accumulation of the aberrantly conformed prion protein (PrPsc). Currently, no ante-mortem diagnostic tests are available to detect this untreatable disease in the pre-clinical stage, thus making difficult to control its spread. Recent evidence suggests that the production of PrPsc can be modulated by … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,257 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmobilization of Lipase from Candida Rugosa on Palm-Based Polyurethane Foam as a Support MaterialRoila Awang, Mohd Rafaei Ghazuli, Mahiran BasriLipase from Candida rugosa was immobilized onto palm-based polyurethane foam (PU), which the polymer was pre-soaked in co-immobilized agent. The activities of PU-immobilized lipase were tested by the esterification reaction of oleic acid and oleyl alcohol in hexane. The PU-immobilized lipase was then characterized in term of its thermal, operational and storage stability. The optimum temperature for native and PU-immobilized … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,478 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Crude Aqueous Extract of Piper betle L. and its Antibacterial Effect Towards Streptococcus mutansT. Nalina, Z.H.A. RahimIn this study, the antimicrobial influence of crude aqueous extract of Piper betle L. on Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) was investigated. The focus of the antimicrobial effects includes the ultrastructure and acid producing properties of S. mutans. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was used to determine the effect of the extract on the ultrastructure of S. mutans. Analysis of the effect … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 13,459 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacteristics of Lipoprotein Peak x Eluted from a Column with the Eluent of High-magnesium Ion Concentration in Lipoprotein Analysis Using the Cation-exchange ChromatographyYuji Hirowatari, Hiroshi Yoshida, Yutaka Ogura et al.The new lipoprotein analysis method using a cation-exchange chromatography, which contains a sulfopropyl-ligand column and two magnesium ion-containing eluents was previously reported. This method can separate serum lipoproteins on the column gel with a magnesium ion concentration gradient and high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) and an unspecified lipoprotein peak are eluted in order from the column. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,473 accessesView PDFCite
