مادة آلی محلول رنگی (CDOM) مقیاس مهمی در سنجش کیفیت آب است. می‌توان اذعان کرد CDOM نور موجود لایه‌های را کاهش می‌دهد و فعالیت‌های بیولوژیکی فتوسنتز مختل می‌کند سرانجام، مانع رشد جمعیت فیتوپلانکتون‌‌هایی می‌شود که برای زنجیرة غذای آبزیان ضروری‌اند. بیشتر تحقیق‌هایی تا کنون به انجام رسیده، از طول موج خاصی اندازه‌گیری ضریب جذب استفاده شده است اما، این تحقیق، امکان گسترة‌ وسیعی باندهای طیف مرئی، تع...

Humans and laboratory animals recognize human modified LDL as immunogenic. Immune complexes (ICs) isolated from human sera contain malondialdehyde-modified LDL (MDA-LDL) and N (epsilon)(carboxymethyl)lysine-modified LDL (CML-LDL) as well as antibodies reacting with MDA-LDL, copper-oxidized LDL (OxLDL), CML-LDL, and advanced glycosylation end product (AGE)-modified LDL. OxLDL and AGE-LDL antibod...

Three lines of evidence are presented that low density lipoproteins gently extracted from human and rabbit atherosclerotic lesions (lesion LDL) greatly resembles LDL that has been oxidatively modified in vitro. First, lesion LDL showed many of the physical and chemical properties of oxidized LDL, properties that differ from those of plasma LDL: higher electrophoretic mobility, a higher density,...

The rate of degradation of oxidatively modified low density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL) by human endothelial cells was similar to that of unmodified low density lipoprotein (LDL), and was approximately 2-fold greater than the rate of degradation of acetylated LDL (Ac-LDL). While LDL and Ac-LDL both stimulated cholesterol esterification in endothelial cells, Ox-LDL inhibited cholesterol esterification ...

Arterial intimal clearances of low density lipoproteins (LDL) from diabetic cholesterol-fed rabbits (D-LDL) and LDL from nondiabetic cholesterol-fed rabbits (N-LDL) were compared. In six experiments, D-LDL and N-LDL were isolated from a diabetic and a nondiabetic rabbit, were iodinated with 125I and 131I, respectively, were mixed, and were reinjected into the same two rabbits as well as into a ...

AIMS To elucidate the levels of malondialdehyde-modified LDL (MDA-LDL)-related variables for predicting coronary artery stenosis (CAS) by coronary CT angiography (CCTA) in asymptomatic patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). METHODS Enrolled were 36 Japanese patients with T2DM who underwent CCTA and in whom MDA-LDL levels were measured. Definition of CAS was luminal narrowing of ≥50%. Trends th...

Using 2-16% gradient gel electrophoresis, we examined low density lipoprotein (LDL) particle size in relation to plasma lipoproteins in 1,168 women and 1,172 men from the Framingham Offspring Study. In addition, we studied the effect of dietary intake on LDL size in a subset of the population. Seven LDL size peaks were identified, with the largest, LDL 1, being found in the density range 1.019-...
