The purpose of this study was to investigate the therapeutic effects of propolis on biochemical and microbiological parameters in muscle tissues of carp (Cyprinus carpio, Linnaeus 1758) exposed to arsenic. A sublethal concentration of arsenic (0.01 ppm) and/or 0.01 ppm propolis were administered to fish for seven days. Biochemical parameters [pH, lactic acid, total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-...

A number of recent efforts have used large-scale, biologically realistic, neural models to help understand the neural basis for the patterns of activity observed in both resting state and task-related functional neural imaging data. An example of the former is The Virtual Brain (TVB) software platform, which allows one to apply large-scale neural modeling in a whole brain framework. TVB provide...

We present The Virtual Brain (TVB), a neuroinformatics platform for full brain network simulations using biologically realistic connectivity. This simulation environment enables the model-based inference of neurophysiological mechanisms across different brain scales that underlie the generation of macroscopic neuroimaging signals including functional MRI (fMRI), EEG and MEG. Researchers from di...

The identification of TVB(S3), a cellular receptor for the cytopathic subgroups B and D of avian leukosis virus (ALV-B and ALV-D), as a tumor necrosis factor receptor-related death receptor with a cytoplasmic death domain, provides a compelling argument that viral Env-receptor interactions are linked to cell death (4). However, other TVB proteins have been described that appear to have similar ...

TVB receptors are death receptors of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) family and serve as cellular receptors for cytopathic subgroups B and D and noncytopathic subgroup E of the avian leukosis viruses (ALVs). Although TVB is essential for ALV-B-mediated cell death, binding of the ALV-B envelope protein to its cognate receptor TVB activates cell death only in the presence of protein bio...

effects of catechin for preventing black spots forming in whiteleg shrimp (litopenaeus vannamei) were evaluated. for processing whole shrimp, catechin was used at a concentration of 0.2 and 0.3 % for 15 minutes. sodium metabisulfite was used at a concentration of 3 % for 10 minutes as control samples. without antioxidant shrimp were used as control samples too. treatments quality was evaluated ...

Quality assessment of finfish fillets during storage is important to be able to predict the shelf life of the fresh product during distribution. Microbial, chemical (pH, TMA, and TVB-N), and sensory (Quality index assessment QIA, Torry scheme) changes in vacuum-packaged blue-spotted emperor (Lethrinus sp), saddletail (Lutjanus malabaricus), crimson snapper (Lutjanus erythropterus), barramundi (...

This study aimed at determining the effect of chitosan coating on shelf life extension of salmon ( Salmo salar ) fillets. The success of edible coatings depends highly on their effective wetting capacity of the surfaces on which they are applied. In this context in a first stage the surface properties of salmon fillets and the wetting capacity of the coatings on fish were evaluated. In terms of...

In this study, it was aimed to investigate that the effect of drying process on rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792) roes in terms proximate composition, aw, pH, TVB-N, TBARs, microbiological counts and color parameters. Drying lasted 42 hours including, 18 at 30oC 24 45oC. The dried fish were vacuum-packed (vacuum degree 0.02MPa) stored 4oC for 90th days. crude lipid, protein, ash...
