Nano Analysis in Biochemistry: In Vitro Separation and Determination of Aluminium in Blood of Dialysis Patients Based on Graphene Oxide Nanoparticles Dispersed to Ionic Liquid

The highest concentration of aluminium (Al) in human blood has toxic effect and so, extraction from human body is very important. In this procedure, an efficient and new method based on graphene oxide nanoparticles (GONPs) dispersed in ionic liquid (IL) was used for in-vitro separation/extraction of trace Al from the blood of dialysis patients by ultrasound assisted-dispersive-micro solid phase...

Computational Identification of Micro RNAs and Their Transcript Target(s) in Field Mustard (Brassica rapa L.)

Background: Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are a pivotal part of non-protein-coding endogenous small RNA molecules that regulate the genes involved in plant growth and development, and respond to biotic and abiotic environmental stresses posttranscriptionally.Objective: In the present study, we report the results of a systemic search for identifi cation of new miRNAs in B. rapa using homology-based ...

Probiotication of Tomato and Carrot Juices for Shelf-life Enhancement using Micro-encapsulation

ABSTRACT: This study was aimed at probiotication of tomato and carrot juices using Lactobacillus plantarum, Lb. fermentum, Lb. casei, Lysinibacillus sphaericus and Saccharomyces boulardii. To enhance the stability, the probiotic cultures were micro-encapsulated using alginate coated chitosan beads. Tomato and carrot juice samples were pasteurized for 20 min at 63 °C. Lb. fermentum, Lb. plantara...

Curcumin as an Environmental Potent Antioxidant Decreases Risk of Arthrosclerosis

Background & Aims of the Study: Oxidative stress increases platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) gene expression in endothelial cells that contributes to vascular dysfunction and atherosclerosis. Oxidative stress generates by dys-regulated redox balance between ROS producing systems and antioxidant systems. Also, Curcumin (Cur) as a main part of tur...
