background tyrosinase, as a copper-containing enzyme, is widely distributed in different levels of life span. it is also a key enzyme in melanin biosynthesis, which plays a crucial role in determining the color of mammalian skin and hair. objectives the current study aimed to determine the effect of a palladium complex on cresolase and catecholase reactions of mushroom tyrosinase (mt). material...

The antifungal properties of ZnO were implemented in the real handicraft and showed promising results for the value addition of local products by sun-screen and fungi protections. The inhibition of Aspergillus sp. growth on tube sedge basketry by zinc oxide (ZnO) was demonstrated. ZnO nanoparticles synthesized with chitosan capping agents were analyzed by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), Fourier tra...

Response inhibition is typically understood as the ability to stop inappropriate actions and often investigated using stop-signal task, in which a go response, triggered by signal, has be inhibited upon onset of signal. In this response been formalized race between process, allows latency process (stop-signal reaction time; SSRT) estimated. Yet, non-parametric SSRT estimations assume that initi...

conclusions the personality patterns of patients dependent on methamphetamines were different from the controls. these people have a high sensitivity to punishment cues, such as being compared in social conditions and a tendency for reinforcement and reward, because of their higher sensitivity in the behavioral inhibition and activation systems. results the methamphetamine dependent group had a...

conclusions our findings show that lactobacillus strains with human origin had a mild inhibitory activity against the diarrheagenic e. coli, and these strains may be useful as probiotic candidates in prevention of intestinal infections caused by diarrheagenic e. coli. results a total of 20 lactobacillus isolates were identified from stool samples. lactobacillus fermentum was the most frequently...

A flow-through biosensor consisting of a fixed bed bioreactor was employed to detect the insecticideparaoxon. Based on the inhibition of organophosphorous insecticide to the enzymatic activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), using paraoxon as a model compound, the condition for detection of the insecticide were optimized. The influence of enzyme loading on the packing surface was studied ...
