Kombucha is traditional drink made from the fermentation of a black tea infusion, and believed to offer variety health benefits. Recently, exploring kombucha alternative substrates has become research hotspot. In this paper, two novel beverages were produced with bamboo leaf or mulberry for first time. Moreover, effects residues (infusion plus residues) without (only infusion) on antioxidant pr...

The use of teas made by medicinal plants is a consolidated practice in Brazil. chemical profile can be affected the storage and handling conditions plant material. These cause volatilization, enzymatic degradation, hydrolysis oxidation secondary metabolites, which affect biological properties teas. This paper describes how basil extracts, prepared aqueous infusion, variations on contact time be...

Hepatic lipidosis is a prevalent metabolic disorder, and in vivo models to study intermediary lipid metabolism are needed dairy cows. Objectives were apply method induce hyperlipidemia characterize the responses safety of intervention feed-restricted dry Holstein cows at 8 mo gestation. It was hypothesized that infusion tyloxapol would without deleterious effects on health Pregnant, nonlactatin...

Effective antirejection therapy with minimal systemic morbidity is required if limb transplantation is to become a clinical reality. We investigated whether i.a. infusion of cyclosporin A (CSA) into the vascularly isolated rabbit forelimb will distribute drug homogeneously to the tissues and produce higher local drug levels than same-dose i.v. treatment, thereby improving the therapeutic index....

For an appropriate extrapolation to patients with peripheral arterial obstructive disease, we tested the efficacy of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) treatment in a porcine hindlimb ligation model. In 40 minipigs, a femoral artery ligation was performed. Control animals were examined immediately after ligation (n = 4) or after 2 wk of intra-arterial infusion of PBS (n = 11). A second ...

Abstract Information systems (IS) should be infused into individuals’ work activities for organizations to extract value from these systems. Studies have identified various factors that impact IS infusion, but few examined the importance of identities and role contextual factors. Drawing on identity status characteristics theories, this study conceptualizes material as IT identity, infusion exa...

Elevated plasma free fatty acids (FFA) induce insulin resistance in skeletal muscle. Previously, we have shown that experimental insulin resistance induced by lipid infusion prevents the dispersion of insulin through the muscle, and we hypothesized that this would lead to an impairment of insulin moving from the plasma to the muscle interstitium. Thus, we infused lipid into our anesthetized can...
