The effects of different forms of resistant potato starch (RS) on the major microbial population groups and short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) in the cecum and feces of rats were studied over a 5-mo feeding period. Thirty 8-wk-old male Wistar rats, averaging 210 g initial body weight, were adapted for 7 d to a balanced basal diet containing 60% waxy maize starch devoid of any RS. On d 8, three grou...

اندازه‌گیری پرتو گاما در زمینه‌های مختلف تحقیقاتی نیازمند آشکارسازهای کارآمد است. زمینه دزیمتری فوتون آشکارساز جرقه‌ای NaI(Tl) به عنوان یکی از سوسوزن معدنی (غیرآلی)، علت دارا بودن مقدار بالای نور خروجی بسیار حایز اهمیت این پژوهش سعی گردیده است، با کمک کد مونت‌کارلو (MCNPX) مقدمات مشخصه‌یابی توسط و بهره‌گیری روش‌های متفاوت محاسبه دز (تالی‌های 6F، 4*F، 6+F 8*F) انجام شود. طور معمول، یک تابش (شمار...

Rett syndrome (RS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder, preferentially found in females and specifically involving the functions on which intelligence and its expression depend--learning, hand use and speech--leaving many others intact. Mutations have been identified at Xq28 on the MECP2 gene (methyl-CpG 2), which selectively silences the expression of other genes whose location is still unknown. ...

By use of crossed immunoelectrophoresis techniques, respiratory syncytial (RS) virus-specific precipitates were produced between RS virus cellular antigen [solubilized in tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane-glycine buffer, pH 9] and antiserum raised in rabbits against semipurified RS virus. When these precipitates were employed as antigens for further immunizations in rabbits, antibodies (anti-RSV-...

Cannabinoids, endocannabinoids and marijuana use activates two well characterized cannabinoid receptors (CBRs), CB1-Rs and CB2-Rs. The expression of CB1-Rs in the brain and periphery has been well studied, but CB2-Rs have received much less attention than CB1-Rs. CB2-Rs were previously thought to be predominantly expressed in immune cells in the periphery and were traditionally referred to as p...

Rejection sensitivity (RS) has been defined as the tendency to readily perceive and overreact to interpersonal rejection. The primary aim of this study was to test key propositions of RS theory, namely that rejecting experiences in relationships with parents are antecedents of early adolescents' future RS and symptomatology. We also expanded this to consider autonomy-restrictive parenting, give...

Measurement of lung function is an important component of clinical management in cystic fibrosis (CF), but has been difficult in young children. The present study aimed to characterise the utility of the forced oscillation technique for measurement of lung function in preschool-aged children with CF in a routine clinical setting. Lung function was assessed in 56 young children (aged 2-7 yrs) wi...
