background & aim:  psyllium (plantago psyllium l.) is a native plant that grows widely in india and iran. different cases of using psyllium gum for its suitable rheological properties in a wide range of food products exist in nature. experimental: in this study, different fractions of psyllium gum were extracted by water and alkali treatments. rheological properties of these fractions were ...

About 10 years have elapsed since the first whole-genome scanning studies in the mouse to identify loci that affect susceptibility or resistance to tumorigenesis. In that time, >100 cancer modifiers have been mapped, and four strong candidate genes have been identified. Cancer modifier loci affect almost all types of mouse tumorigenesis, with some loci acting on the entire tumorigenic process, ...

Genetic background affects the susceptibility to mammary tumor development in Apc(Min/+) mice. Here we report the identification of four novel modifier loci that influence different aspects of mammary tumor development in Apc(Min/+) mice. Analysis of tumor development in a backcross of (FVBB6 Apc(Min/+)) x B6 Apc(Min/+) mice has identified a modifier on chromosome 9 that significantly affects t...

Modifying the surfaces of metal nanoparticles with self-assembled monolayers of functionalized thiols provides a simple and direct method to alter their surface properties. Mixed self-assembled monolayers can extend this approach since, in principle, the surfaces can be tuned by altering the proportion of each modifier that is adsorbed. However, this works best if the composition and microstruc...

The thermo-optic coefficient (dn/dT) of inorganic–organic hybrid material films prepared by the sol-gel process of organoalkylsilanes is measured using a prism coupler equipped with a hot stage. The effect of the organic modifier on the variation of dn/dT in inorganic–organic hybrid material films has been investigated. The value of dn/dT becomes more negative with increasing molecular weight o...

This study investigates the properties of a durative modifier that exclusively targets result states in Turkish. We call this RSM, standing for Result State Modifier. What is peculiar about RSM it can express actual duration state, as well non-actual an state. Our goal to describe conditions under which these two interpretations are licensed and provide compositional analysis how derived. argue...

The retention factor is the key quantity for thermodynamic analysis of mechanism in chromatographic experiments. In this work, we measure factors moderately polar solutes on four silica-based porous matrices as stationary phases by supercritical fluid chromatography. Elution only possible with binary mixtures carbon dioxide (sc-CO2) and modifier (methanol) due to low polarity pure sc-CO2. addit...

The combination of two existing words is a productive strategy used by speakers to convey new concepts and extend the limits of their vocabulary. In English compounds, the first word or modifier attaches further meaning to the second word or head, thus creating a reference to the intended concept. According to Gagné and Shoben’s (1997) Competition Among Relations In Nominals (CARIN) theory, the...
