The by-products of the skate processing industry have bioactive properties but are mostly discarded. In present study, cartilage, a major by-product that is rich in chondroitin sulfate (CS) and type II collagen were investigated. Enzymatically-hydrolyzed peptides (CP) thermally hydrolyzed CS oligosaccharides (CSo) from cartilage prepared their antioxidant activities studied. High free radical s...

Abstract Wood polymer composites (WPC) are gaining popularity and widespread usage due to an increased awareness of human population towards the importance environmental effects green eco-friendly materials. Mechanical properties WPC could be improved through graft copolymerization monomer onto wood fiber improve interfacial bonding. In this study, a comparison free radical using microwave-assi...

The persistence of recalcitrant pollutants in water is a major health issue calling for advanced and green techniques to clean polluted waters. For instance, direct activation peroxydisulfate by visible light without any catalyst displays remarkable potential degrade water, the involved reactive species pure conditions with deionized have been elucidated recently. However, impact phosphates, wh...

the purpose of this study was to describe the feasibility of a combined preoperative chemoradiation program ib-iia, bulky and suspicious iib by radical surgery in patients with stage ib-iib cervical cancer. from september 1999 to april 2002, 30 patients with carcinoma of the cervix were treated with preoperative external beam radiotherapy of 45 gy in 5 weeks. patients received concurrent contin...

The nature of the interaction between dextran sulfate and low density human plasma lipoproteins of the Sr 0 to 10 class (LDL) was investigated by modifying LDL with succinic anhydride or acetic anhydride. In the absence of divalent metal ions, the formation of insoluble and soluble dextran sulfate-LDL complexes was prevented by the acylation of approximately 16% and 25%, respectively, of the LD...

breast sarcomas have relatively been rare and accounted for 1% of all primary malignant tumors of the breast. pure and primary chondrosarcoma of the male breast would be an extremely rare tumor. it might arise either from the breast stroma itself, or from underlying bone or cartilage. a 65-year-old man has presented with a rapidly growing breast mass since 5 months. physical examination has est...

trichomoniasis, the most widespread sexually transmitted disease is caused by trichomonas vaginalis. this parasite is site specific for the genitourinary tract and recruitment of macrophages as well as polymorphonuclear nutrophils (pmn) to the site of infection is the first line of defense as a component of non-specific resistance and immunity. in this study, balb/c mice were infected with 10 i...
