Azo-dye was liberated from azocoll not only by proteolytic enzymes but also by albumin (serum or egg), a culture medium (papain digest of meat) or polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). Pretreatment of azocoll with papain and PVP increased the reactivity of azocoll to ƒÈ-toxin of Clostridium perfringens. A rapid and reliable assay method of ƒÈ-toxin and ƒÈ-antitoxin using the pretreated azocoll is described.

Through harvesting of the increased Stokes shift of CdS QDs via Cu-doping, the concentration-quenching or aggregation-quenching of CdS QDs was largely alleviated. A dually-enriched strategy with both polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) twisting and SiO2 loading was developed for generating a highly luminescent doped-dots (d-dots) assembly for improved cell imaging.

Kalus padi Mentik Wangi Susu memiliki tingkat regenerasi tunas yang rendah karena pencokelatan kalus tinggi dalam media regenerasi. Pencokelatan dipicu oleh tingginya akumulasi etilen dan fenol selama kultur in vitro. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membandingkan efikasi antara inhibitor antioksidan mengurangi pencoklatan serta meningkatkan pada Susu. Perlakuan dilakukan dengan melakukan penamba...

Immunoassay interference causing unexpected reactive results in magnetic-microparticle-based assays was detected. A systematic evaluation of Liaison Epstein-Barr virus immunoglobulin M showed that 5% of the positive results (0.4% of tested samples) could be explained by such interference. Adding chemical blocking reagents (polyvinylpyrrolidone and polyvinyl alcohol) to the assay buffers partial...

Composite materials based on superparamagnetic magnetite nanoparticles embedded in polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) are generated in a continuous flow vortex fluidic device (VFD). The same device is effective in entrapping microalgal cells within this material, such that the functional cells can be retrieved from aqueous dispersions using an external magnet.

tomato  (l.ycopersicon esculentum  mill.) cv. rio grande  seedlings were nutritionally conditioned with solutions complete fertilizer n(60% no3+40% nh4)-p-k (20-20-20) , n(30%no3+70% nh4)-p-k (15-5-30) , the first two week   n(60% no3+40% nh4)-p-k (20-20-20) and later two week  n(30%no3+70% nh4)-p-k (15-5-30)  and vice versa were  applied in  completely randomized experiment with three replicat...
