Eviscerated sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax were irradiated by Cobalt-60 at commercial irradiation facility at dose of 2.5 and 5 kGy at 2–4°C. The influences of the irradiation on proximate, fatty acid and amino acid composition in cultured sea bass were investigated. Significant differences (P<0.0.5) were found between non-irradiated and irradiated sea bass in terms of moisture, protein, fat,...

Inhibition of HIV-1 protease (HIV-PR), the aspartic protease that cleaves specific amide bonds in precursor gag-pol proteins to form the mature proteins needed for production of infectious human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) particles,' is regarded as a promising approach for treating acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and related diseases. Tight-binding inhibitors of HIV-PR have been dis...

Equilibria of the reaction of molybdenum(VI) with L-aspartic acid (Asp) and L- Glutamic acid(Glu) have been studied by spectrophotometric measurements in mixed solvent systems at an ionicstrength of 0.2 mol/dm3 sodium perchlorate, employed (15, 20, 25, 30± 0.1°C) at pH ranges of 3.2to 5.5 with a high ratio of ligand to metal. The stability constants of the complexes and theresulting free energy...
