Abstract Background: Previously, the activity test of combination herbal juice garlic, rosella flower, red ginger, lime, apple cider vinegar, and honey, combined can lower blood sugar [1] reduce total cholesterol levels [11]. In use traditional medicine its effectiveness, safety must also be proven before juices are circulated in community Objective: This study was to determine subacute hepatot...

Lymphocyte membrane rafts contain molecules critical for immunoreceptor signaling. Here, we report identification of a new raft-associated adaptor protein LIME (Lck-interacting molecule) expressed predominantly in T lymphocytes. LIME becomes tyrosine phosphorylated after cross-linking of the CD4 or CD8 coreceptors. Phospho-LIME associates with the Src family kinase Lck and its negative regulato...

Throughout the history of citrus production in Florida one of the diseases with a major impact has been the Asian form of citrus greening (HLB), which was first detected in 2005. As a response to this introduction, new survey and detection methods had to be developed utilizing field observations directed not only to corroborate symptoms already reported in the literature, but to describe any va...

background: recently grapefruit juice is known to enhance the bioavailability of several clinically important drugs such as nifedipine, terfenadine, cyclosporine, ethinylestradiole, midazolam, and triazolam. cyclosporine is an immunosuppressive agent that used in transplantation for preventation of chronic rejection. grapefruit increase in cmax and auc of drug mediated by suppression of cyp3a4 ...

SPITTLEBUGS may cause a reduction in sugarcane quality, problems with juice clarification and lower the VHP sugar quality by increasing phenol compounds and colour. A randomised complete-block design experiment with three replicates was conducted. The first factor tested was spittlebug injury to cane stalks with a control (0%) and different levels of infested stalks (15, 30 and 60%). The second...

A lime kiln is used to convert lime mud into lime for reuse in the causticizing plant of the kraft recovery process. Many of the problems encountered in lime kiln operations can be related to kiln chemistry, including TRS and SO2 emissions, dusting, ringing and refractory brick thinning. Understanding the composition and thermal behaviour of lime mud and the major chemical reactions involved is...

LIME (Lck-interacting membrane protein) is a transmembrane adaptor that associates with the Lck and Fyn protein tyrosine kinases and with the C-terminal Src kinase (Csk). To delineate the role of LIME in vivo, LIME-deficient mice were generated. Although Lime transcripts were expressed in immature and mature B and T cells, the absence of LIME impeded neither the development nor the function of ...

Soft marine clays are very sensitive to changes in the stress system, moisture content and system chemistry of the pore fluid. Geotechnical engineers feel a necessity to improve the behavior of these deposits using anyone of the available ground improvement techniques. In the present investigation an attempt has been made to improve the permeability of a marine clay using the lime column techni...
