Soy sauce (Shoyu) is a traditional fermented seasoning of Japan and is available throughout the world. We investigated the effect of Shoyu polysaccharides (SPS) prepared from soy sauce on iron absorption in vitro and in vivo. First, by measuring the iron-binding capacity of SPS, it was found that SPS stabilized the solubility of ferrous iron at neutral pH's by forming a complex, Fe-SPS. Second,...

Peritransplant infusion of apoptotic donor splenocytes cross-linked with ethylene carbodiimide (ECDI-SPs) has been demonstrated to effectively induce allogeneic donor-specific tolerance. The objective of the current study is to determine the effectiveness and additional requirements for tolerance induction for xenogeneic islet transplantation using donor ECDI-SPs. In a rat-to-mouse xenogeneic i...

In situ Al2024- Mg2Si composite was fabricated by spark plasma sintering (SPS) of reactive powder. Reactive powder was obtained from mechanical alloying (MA) of elemental powders. Clad layers of in situ composite were fabricated on Al substrates by spark plasma sintering (SPS). Structural evolution during MA process and after SPS was investigated by X-ray diffractometery (XRD). Scanning electro...

Growth of Peptostreptococcus anaerobius was shown to be totally inhibited by sodium polyanethol sulfonate (SPS). Other anaerobic cocci grew in the presence of SPS although some strains of Peptococcus prevotii and Peptococcus magnus showed delayed growth. A SPS disk assay for the presumptive identification of P. anaerobius is described.

in order to solve the problem of fuel pollution, the diesel fuel for power generation of marine was abandoned and shore power supply have been proposed at the historic moment. the shore power supply which needs transferring 380v/50hz to 450v/60hz is used on shipping who need this kind of power, so effectively curbs the emissions of pollution gas into the air, and achieves the purpose of improvi...
