anti-microbial effects of the lactic acid bacteria have been studied and proved in various investigations. this investigation aimed to study the anti-yeast effect of two isolated lactic acid bacteria species from “chal” (a product from yogurt) as biological preservatives in doogh. to do so, anti-yeast activity of l. brevis and e. faecium against saccharomyces cerevisiae, kluyveromyces. marxianu...

Stride sequences of healthy gait are characterized by persistent long-range correlations, which become anti-persistent in the presence of an isochronous metronome. The latter phenomenon is of particular interest because auditory cueing is generally considered to reduce stride variability and may hence be beneficial for stabilizing gait. Complex systems tend to match their correlation structure ...

Patients with autoantibodies to the insulin receptor (Anti-R) may exhibit either fasting hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia and extreme insulin resistance. Occasionally, both these phenomena are observed in the same patient at different times in the clinical course. In an effort to understand what determines the patient's response to Anti-R, we developed an animal model of these clinical disorders b...

A new cyclic diarylheptanoid namely alnuheptanoid B (3), along with four known cyclic diarylheptanoids: myricanone (1), (+)-S-myricanol (2), myricanone 5-O--D-glucopyranoside (4), and (+)-S-myricanol 5-O--D-glucopyranoside (5) were isolated from the EtOAc fraction of Alnus japonica Steud (family: Betulaceae) stem bark. Their structures were established by different spectroscopic analyses, as ...

Background: Anti-U1 ribonucleoprotein (U1RNP) antibodies were associated with connective tissue diseases (CTDs), but the clinical characteristics of this antibody in Chinese myositis patients have not been studied. Objective: We aim to analyze features who test positive for anti-U1RNP and delineate a subgroup myositis. Design: This is retrospective cohort study. Methods: reviewed data compared ...

The qubit Rabi oscillations are known to be non-decaying (though with a fluctuating phase) if the qubit is continuously monitored in the weak-coupling regime. In this paper we propose an experiment to demonstrate these persistent Rabi oscillations via low-frequency noise correlation. The idea is to measure a qubit by two detectors, biased stroboscopically at the Rabi frequency. The low-frequenc...

Phytochemical investigation of the aerial parts of Euphorbia erythradenia Bioss. (Euphorbiaceae), one of Iranian endemic Euphorbias, with particular attention to triterpene constituents, using methanol solvent extraction was carried out. Five known triterpenes, including four cycloartanes and oleanolic acid, were isolated for the first time and identified using NMR and Mass techniques. Anti HIV...
