Acid-soluble collagen could be isolated from fish skin using acetic acid. In recent years, much attention has been paid to collagen from marine sources, mainly arising from the fact that there is no risk of contagious diseases. Moreover, by processing the fish, significant amounts of waste materials are produced which can be considered as a substitute for these collagen sources. Thunnus tonggol...

We have demonstrated a simple and efficient route for the synthesis of a novel imine based tridentate ligand and its Pd-complex to investigate the C-C cross-coupling reactions, that involve column chromatography purification in only one step. The catalytic activity of the newly synthesized catalyst was studied for the Suzuki, Sonogashira and, Heck cross-coupling reactions under mild conditions....

Previous in vitro studies showed that the small intestine has reserve capacities for absorption of nutrients. However, the size of the reserve capacity is controversial. Therefore, we measured the intestinal capacity for absorption of energy in relation to the postprandial gastric delivery of energy into the gut. In minipigs, a 150-cm length of jejunum was perfused (1-8 kcal/min) with four nutr...

The aim of the present work was to study the response of two sunflower genotypes (cultivated sunflower Helianthus annuus cv. 1114 and newly developed genotype H. annuus × Helianthus argophyllus) to Pb medium-term stress and the role of exogenously applied EDTA in alleviating Pb toxicity in hydroponics. Plant growth, morpho-anatomical characteristics of the leaf tissues, electrolyte leakage, tot...

salinity is one of the most limitation factors for crop production in agricultural systems due to the toxic effects and preventing water and nutrients absorption, in this research the efficiency of four strains of fluorescent pseudomonads on concentration of nutrient elements in rice was determined, under saline conditions. a pot experiment was carried out based on the factorial completely rand...

Infrared detector has a wide range of applications. To fabricate an IR detector with good sensitivity, an efficient IR absorber is needed. In this paper, we theoretically and experimentally investigated the absorption characteristics of Ti, multi-layer structured Ti-SiO2 and TiNx-SiNx nano films. The multi-layer structured TiNx-SiNx films with different nitrogen contents and Ti nano films with ...
