Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) an important sugar crop, shows high sensitivity to salinity at various growth stages. This study was conducted to determine the comparative response of a salt-tolerant (CP-4333) and a salt-sensitive (CP-71-3002) sugarcane clone to the toxic or osmotic effects of sodium chloride at two growth stages. Clones indicated significant differences in terms of reduct...

Human bone marrow stromal cells (hBMSCs, also known as bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells) are a population of progenitor cells that contain a subset of skeletal stem cells (hSSCs), able to recreate cartilage, bone, stroma that supports hematopoiesis and marrow adipocytes. As such, they have become an important resource in developing strategies for regenerative medicine and tissue engin...

comments on related versions. Abstract We provide a general model for comparing stepwise and lumpy investments, considering stage specific volatilities, drifts and possibility of project failure. Stepwise investments allow for interim project value realizations, instead of considering only a final project value as in sequential investments. We conceive of an environment in which stepwise invest...

presence of available and stable fluoride in a dentifrice formulation is a major requirement for an anti-caries effect. although the available fluoride concentration in iranian dentifrices has been reported in previous studies, there is little information on its stability; which is dependent upon dentifrice formulation. this study was done to assess the fluoride ion concentration and stability ...

1. The effects of food and antacid on the pharmacokinetics of tenidap were investigated in this randomised, 3-way cross-over study. 2. Twenty-one healthy young men, mean age 27.4 years, received single oral doses of tenidap sodium 120 mg at weekly intervals after either an overnight fast, with food or with 20 ml of the antacid Maalox (aluminum hydroxide 1.8 g and magnesium hydroxide 1.2 g). Pla...

For the first time, based on joint application of fine-porous and cell models, a theoretical analysis changing transport structural characteristics heterogeneous polymeric ion-exchange membranes (IEMs) MK-40, MA-40, MA-41 after exposure to elevated temperatures in water aggressive media (H2SO4 NaOH solutions), as well long-term processing electrodialyzers various types, was carried out. The stu...

It has been recently shown that manufacturing p-n-junctions, field-effect and bipolar transistors, thyristors in a multilayer structure by diffusion or ion implantation with the optimization of dopant and/or radiation defects leads to increase the sharpness of p-n-junctions (both single p-n-junctions and p-n-junctions framework their system). Due to the optimization, one can also obtain increas...

The investigation of site-specific glycosylation is essential for further understanding the many biological roles that glycoproteins play; however, existing methods for characterizing site-specific glycosylation either are slow or yield incomplete information. Mass spectrometry (MS) is being applied to investigate site-specific glycosylation with bottom-up proteomic type strategies. When using ...
