ß-Cyclodextrin (ß-CD) solubilizes stickies from deinked pulp, commercial adhesive formulations, or magazine inserts, which demonstrates its potential as a washing aid. A new test to simulate coater scratches is described; it involves scraping the test paper sample across the surface of a thin layer chromatography plate and measuring the degree of scratching on the plate. Scratching was signific...

Due to the asymmetry introduced by the hypothesis (2), the above theorem leaves open the case where ß >ct. Actually, the entire theorem as it stands holds without hypothesis (3). This results from the fact that Erdös' proof of the theorem given in [l ] uses only the condition a>ß/2. In the contrary case, 2a=/3, if we let ai be any fixed integer of A, the set {ö+cti}, b^B, has asymptotic density...

Beta-carotene (ß-carotene) is one of many carotenoids found in nature. In the human nutrition field, evidence suggests that higher blood levels of ß-carotene as well as other carotenoids such as alpha-carotene, lycopene, lutein, zeaxanthin, and ß-cryptoxanthin may be associated with lower risk of several chronic diseases. ß-carotene, a-carotene, and ß-cryptoxanthin have pro-vitamin A activity, ...

Background: Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus as important food-borne pathogens are the main concerns of food producers and consumers which create a lot of problems worldwide. The objective of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effect of monolaurin alone and in combination with EDTA on viability of E. coli and S. aureus in culture media and Iranian white cheese. Methods: Th...

Given the broad use of nanostructured crystalline titania films, an environmentally friendly and more sustainable synthesis route is highly desirable. Here, a water-based, low-temperature presented to synthesize foam-like films. A pearl necklace-like nanostructure introduced as tailored morphology via biotemplating with major bovine whey protein ß-lactoglobulin (ß-lg). It shown that crystalliza...

für die resultierende mittlere Geschwindigkeit eines Teilchens nach einem Stoß: t>red = v c p . Aus den Gesetzen des elastischen Stoßes für Kugeln der Massen m0, mx ergibt sich für die Geschwindigkeit von 77i0 nach dem Stoß mit ß = ( (m x m0 ) / (m, + m 0 ) ) 2, e=(l/ß-l) (d/R0)2 : v=v0(ßey*(( 1 + 1/fi) — cos2 ft)1'*; (A.6) cos #m i n = (1 (R0/d)2 (ß (vmJv 0)2)/ (ß-1) cos # m a x = (1 (R0/d)2)1...

Background ß-alanine has ergogenic potential based on its relationship with carnosine. Carnosine is rapidly degraded into ß-alanine and histidine as soon as it enters the blood. So there is no advantage to using direct carnosine supplementation. Previous studies have demonstrated that taking ß-alanine orally is effective at increasing intramuscular carnosine levels. The resistance training athl...

A new phenylethanoid glycoside acylated with syringic acid, namely acanmontanoside, was isolated from the aerial portions of Acanthus montanus (Nees). T. Anderson, along with decaffeoylverbascoside, verbascoside, isoverbascoside, leucosceptoside A, (2R)-2-O-ß-D-glucopyranosyl-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-one (HBOA-Glc), (2R)-2-O-ß-D-glucopyranosyl-4-hydroxy-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-one (DIBOA-Glc), (...

background: our objectives were to investigate whether immunomodulatory cytokines, tgf-β and il-10, are stimulated in response to cystic echinococcosis (ce) components in mice model, and whether major hydatid fluid antigens or live protoscoleces could equally contribute to such cytokines. methods: protoscoleces were obtained by aseptic puncture of fertile sheep hydatid cysts. hydatid fluid anti...

festuca ovina l. is a hyperaccumulating plant which has aroused considerableinterest with respect to its possible use for phytoremediation of contaminated soils. thisstudy has been conducted to evaluate the potentials of f. ovina l. to serve as aphytoremediation plant in the cleaning up of cu in the polluted soils and to identifyextraction efficiency of ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (edta) ...
