In connection with an investigation of the staining of intracellular antigens with ferritin-antibody conjugates (1), we required an embedding material which was extensively ionic. Although several hydrophilic embedding materials have been described (cf. reference 2), to our knowledge no satisfactory ionic ones have been reported. We sought to prepare an ionic embedding material by the bulk poly...

Viruses compound dietary pathology Reoviruses commonly infect humans and mice asymptomatically. Bouziat et al. found that immune responses to two gutinfecting reoviruses take different paths in mice (see the Perspective by Verdu and Caminero). Both reoviruses invoked protective immune responses, but for one reovirus, when infection happened in the presence of a dietary antigen (such as gluten o...

Cross linking of high density polyethylene (HDPE) was first performed via high energy10 Mev electron beam (EB) irradiation. HDPE was also cross linked withDicumyle peroxide (DCP).The gel content of samples was determined by solvent extraction.Degree of cross linking was evaluated by hot set apparatus; as well .In order to clarify the effectof nature of cross linking, correlation of electrical p...

Background and Objectives: As chemical methods are commonly used to modify the starch properties, in this study, the influence of chemical modification using POCl3 on the rice starch function was evaluated. Materials and Methods: Rice starch was isolated by alkaline extraction of the proteins and cross-linked rice starches were prepared from reactions between native rice starch (low and high a...
