We were able to produce the first ever meltderived bioactive glass scaffold that met the requirement of an ideal bone scaffold by using the gel-cast foaming process and a new glass composition. However, initially a small fraction of sodium potassium sulfate crystals formed during processing. The purpose of this work was to study and prohibit the growth of those crystals, which was the result of...

In this paper, as raw material, soy protein, amino nitrogen content as an indicator to determine the microwave heating three enzymes (alkaline protease, papain, pepsin) in cooperation with means of enzyme hydrolysis of processing the order and the preparation of small molecule soybean peptides best process Conditions.Measured by fluorescence analysis AN, dextran G-50 gel chromatography separati...

A processing protease for the human immunodeficiency virus type I (HIV-I) envelope glycoprotein gp160 precursor has been purified to homogeneity from the post-nuclear membrane fraction of a human T4+ lymphocyte clone. Most of the processing activity was found to be present in the fractions of endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus of the cells. The purified enzyme has a monomeric structure w...

In this study, High temperature superconductor YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO) nanoparticle was prepared by Sol-gel technique. The sol-gel includes a homogeneous solution of Y-Ba-Cu acetate precursor and acetic acid. powder compressed hydraulic at 5 ton/cm2 needed post-reaction heat treatment 850 °C for 8 h with oxygen flow. YBCO bulk has been characterized using traditional R-T measurements, producing best...

UNLABELLED Alaska pollock (Theragra chalcogramma) is the U.S.A.'s largest commercial fishery, with an annual catch of over 1 million tons. During pollock processing, the skins are discarded or made into fish meal, despite their value for gelatin production. The absence of gelatin-processing facilities in Alaska necessitates drying of the skins before transport to decrease the moisture content, ...

Optically transparent superhydrophobic silica-based films were obtained by means of sol–gel processing and self-assembly (SA). Desired surface roughness was obtained by tuning the microstructures of the sol–gels through careful control of hydrolysis and condensation reactions of various silica precursors during sol–gel processing, whereas modification of surface chemistry was done by introducin...

Active protein micropatterns and microarrays made by selective localization are popular candidates for medical diagnostics, such as biosensors, bioMEMS, and basic protein studies. In this paper, we present a simple fabrication process of thick (approximately 20 microm) protein micropatterning using capillary force lithography with bifunctional sol-gel hybrid materials. Because bifunctional sol-...

The thermal behavior of actomyosin from the porcine skeletal muscle under various heating conditions including retort processing was examined. The physical properties (breaking energy, modulus of elasticity and water release rate) of the heat-induced gels of actomyosin decreased with increasing heating temperature or heating rate. The microstructure of the gel exhibiting lower physical property...
