LPS-binding proteins in plasma play an important role in modifying LPS toxicity. Significant properties have already been attributed to the LPS-binding protein (LBP). It accelerates LPS toxicity as well as incorporation into high-density lipoproteins, leading to neutralization of LPS in serum. A search for other LPS-binding components in serum, using LPS-coated magnetic beads, revealed a new LP...

In this study, images of nonuniform and uniform electric current density in conductor phantoms, which contain magnetic resonance active nuclei, are produced using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). A standard spin echo pulse sequence is used, with the addition of a bipolar current pulse. The flux density parallel to the main magnetic field, generated by the current pulse, is encoded in the phase...

Introduction: In recent years the relationship between electromagnetic fields and coronary artery disease is attracted a considerable attention. Low density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation is the initial step in the development of atherosclerosis. Paraoxonase1 (PON1) protects LDL and High density lipoprotein (HDL) against oxidative processes, thus preventing the formation of atherogenic (oxidized-L...

Using Pinus bungeana, Platycladus orientalis, Koelreuteria paniculata and Ginkgo biloba as research objects, three open-top chambers with different ozone-concentration gradients were set up (NF, NF40 NF80) based on trunk sap-flow technology to study the difference in ozone absorption by trees under concentrations. The results showed that monthly diurnal variations of density tree species decrea...

The COVID-19 pandemic prompts the government to lock down communities and spread safety nets through subsidies control contagion. Consequently, strict lockdowns refrained individuals from venturing outside impacted their reliance on Social Amelioration Program (SAP) government. This study attempts assess effect of SAP distribution in highly populated cities Metro Manila situation possible incre...

Congestion avoidance mechanisms are used to prevent the saturation of the gateway which represents a bottleneck of the system. Recently, a new method for the congestion avoidance has been proposed: the smart access point with limited advertised window (SAP-LAW). The main idea is to hijack at the gateway the acknowledge packets in the transmission control protocol (TCP) connections in order to a...

enterprise resource planning (erp) has become the most strategic tool for an organization to employ. a leading erp solution is sap®. it has been employed by organizations to enable them to collaborate on different projects and to integrate all aspects of operations. just as organizations have adopted erp solutions, they employed quality initiatives that are designed to help organizations maximi...
