The role of the product in the treatment of colorectal cancer is reviewed in the light of experimental and clinical results to date. The fermented wheat germ extract (code name: MSC, trade name: Avemar) registered as a dietary food for special medical purposes for cancer patients to complement the active oncotherapy, exerted a growth inhibitory effect in HCR-25 human colon carcinoma xenograft, ...

Wheat germ oil was added to a larval liquid diet for rearing Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) (Diptera: Tephritidae) to optimize fruit fly quality. Effects of various concentrations of wheat germ oil at 0.04, 0.07, 0.15, 0.30, and 0.66% and their possible mode of action were evaluated. Results suggest that addition of wheat germ oil does not affect pupal weight, larval developmental period, adult e...

Nine ruminally and duodenally cannulated (145 ± 21 kg of initial BW; Exp. 1) and sixteen intact (181 ± 36 kg of initial BW; Exp. 2), commercial, Angus, nursing, steer calves were used to evaluate the effects of advancing season and corn distillers dried grains with solubles in creep feed on intake, digestion, microbial efficiency, ruminal fermentation, and performance while grazing native range...

Two auxotrophic mutants of Escherichia coli have been shown to accumulate significant amounts of l-threonine in the culture medium. One mutant, 13071, is deficient in alpha,epsilon-diaminopimelic acid (DAP), and the other, 13070, is deficient in both DAP and methionine. Accumulation of l-threonine by 13071 in a synthetic medium with mannitol as the carbon source at 37 C incubation temperature w...

in the present study, four carbon sources were tested for the polyester synthesis of pseudomonas aeruginosa pa01 which is a ubiquitous environmental bacterium and is one of the top three causes of opportunistic human infections. these included linear c8 to c11 carboxylic acids. octanoic acid, nonanoic acid, decanoic acid and undecanoic acid were added to m1 minimal medium to final concentration...

In four controlled experiments, it was established that bloat occurring in rumen fistulated cattle pastured on wheat is a foamy type. Poloxalene effectively prevented foaming, and bloat scores of controls and those receiving poloxalene differed significantly. Though differences among daily treatments of 1.0, 1.5 or 2.0 g of poloxalene per 100 lb (45.4 kg) body weight were nonsignificant, a dose...
