Response surface optimization of the effect natural essential oils from clove, cumin and fennel in golden delicious apple fruit peroxidase inactivation

Abstract Background and Aims Acute kidney injury (AKI) is not a merely transient event, which can lead to subsequent progression chronic disease (CKD). Autosomal dominant polycystic (ADPKD) the most frequent inherited caused by mutations in PKD1 or PKD2 gene. Previous studies showed that acute injuries promote cystogenesis adult mice with ADPKD. Fibrosis hallmark of AKI CKD (AKI-CKD) transition...

Phage characterization for research and therapy can involve newly isolated phages propagated in pathogenic bacteria. If so, requires safety-managing the In current study, we adapt a common inexpensive reagent, PrimeStore (Longhorn Vaccines Diagnostics, San Antonio, TX, USA), to safety-manage bacteria 20 min by selectively inactivating No bacterial survivors are observed among >109 per ml rep...

This work analyses how to optimise efficiency in the use of solar light for different UV-based photochemical water treatment processes. The direct sunlight state-of-the-art compound parabolic collector (CPC) photoreactors is compared with energy electricity generation photovoltaic (PV) power systems feed LED lighting sources. Seven processes (CPC, PV-UVA LED, PV-UVC CPC+TiO2, CPC+H2O2, LED+TiO2...

Non-thermal inactivation of courgette peroxidase enzyme: Response surface modeling the effect cumin, fennel and clove essential oils

BACKGROUND In 2016 the World Health Organization declared the mosquito-borne Zika virus (ZIKV) a "public health emergency of international concern." ZIKV is a blood-borne pathogen, which therefore causes concerns regarding the safety of human plasma-derived products due to potential contamination of the blood supply. This study investigated the effectiveness of viral inactivation steps used dur...

RPS4Y, a Y-linked gene in humans, appears to encode an isoform of ribosomal protein S4. A homologous locus on the human X chromosome, RPS4X, lies close to the X-inactivation center but fails to undergo X-inactivation. We have isolated a genomic clone from the mouse Rps4 locus, the homolog of human RPS4X. We derived an intron probe that hybridizes to the functional Rps4 locus but does not cross-...

The histone H4 acetylation status of the active X (Xa) and inactive X (Xi) chromosomes was investigated at the level of individual genes. A moderate level of acetylation was observed along the lengths of genes on both the Xi and Xa, regardless of their X inactivation status. However, this moderate level of acetylation was modified specifically in promoter regions. Transcriptionally active genes...
