In our previous study, we compared the two α-amylase enzymes from Bacillus sp.KR8104, BKA∆(N44) and BKA∆(N44C193) which is the secreted form of it. The results indicated that the presence of 193 amino acids propeptide in the C-terminal of BKA∆(N44) changed its enzymatic parameters like an uncompetitive inhibitor in comparison to BKA∆(N44C193). In the present study, we cloned the DNA sequence of...

The investigation of the terminal falling velocity of non-spherical particles is currently one of the most promising topics in sedimentation technology due to its great signifcance in many separation processes. In this study, the potential of Artifcial Neural Networks (ANNs) for the prediction of nonspherical particles terminal falling velocity through Newtonian and nonNewtonian (power law) liq...

The present work comprises the synthesis of one series of diarylmethane dyes containing one or more terminal methoxy substituents together with a variable tertiary amino group. The electronic absorption spectra of the dyes have been determined. As the conjugation of the terminal nitrogen atom improves in the sequence NMez > Kairoline > Julolidine, a progressive hypsochromic shift is observed

background: anaphylactic reactions, such as urticaria, edema, respiratory symptoms, and anaphylactic shock often complicate the course of cystic echinococcosis (ce). methods: to investigate the role of the ige immunoreactive antigen 5 (ag 5) in the sero-positive patients with ce, we determined n-terminal of 57 kda subunit of ag5 responsible for ige and c-terminal of this active antigen related ...

Abstract Background In Japan, forgoing life-sustaining treatment to respect the will of patients at terminal stage is not stipulated by law. According Guidelines for Decision-Making Process in Terminal-Stage Healthcare published Ministry Health, Labor and Welfare 2007, Japanese Society Dialysis Therapy (JSDT) developed a proposal that was limited did explicitly cover with dementia. This shared ...

the aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical usefulness of n-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (nt-pro bnp) and nitric oxide (no) with echocardiography (gold standard test) in diagnosis of canine cardiomyopathy. out of 374 cases, 82 cases showing cardiovascular abnormalities including 16 cases of cardiomyopathy were further selected for standardization of biomarkers. significant (p

the dramatic increasing of sea-freight container transportations and the developing trend for using containers in the multimodal handling systems through the sea, rail, road and land in the present market cause some challenges to the general managers of container terminals such as increasing demand, competitive situation, new investments and expansion of new activities and the need to use new m...

the exponential growth of the flow of goods and passengers, fragility of certain products and the need for the optimization of transport costs impose on carriers to use more and more multimodal transport. in addition, the need for intermodal transport policy has been strongly driven by environmental concerns and to benefit from the combination of different modes of transport to cope with the in...
