In this study, three popular, regionally grown rice varieties (Bario, brown and white) were compared with three of the most popular and highly marketed imported rice varieties (black, glutinous and basmati rice) in Penang region of Malaysia. Rice samples were evaluated for amino acids, fatty acids, minerals, heavy metals and dietary fiber composition. Overall, amino acids content among all the ...

Page 283 Is Modified Citrus Pectin an Effective Mobilizer of Heavy Metals in Humans? Three small studies supporting the use of modified citrus pectin (MCP) for mobilization of heavy metals have recently been conducted by several closely linked authors. The most recent study, published in the July/August 2008 issue of Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine, claims dramatic results in lead ...

Polyclonal antibodies have been raised against four 16 residue peptides with sequences taken from the C-terminal quarter of the human cytoplasmic dynein heavy chain. The sites are downstream from a known microtubule-binding domain associated with the "stalk" that protrudes from the motor domain. The antisera were assayed using bacterially expressed proteins with amino acid sequences taken from ...
