in present study different protein measurement methods are evaluated on the allergenic extract of chenopodium album pollen, which was previously prepared in our laboratory and applied in skin prick testing in comparison with a commer¬cial extract. the protein content of similar amounts of these two extracts which had caused similar skin reactions were measured with different protein assays such...

in the near future, design of a new generation of drugs targeting proteins will be required. considering the complex bond between the drug and protein, the structure and stability of the target protein should be considered. so far, a series of in vitro investigations have been conducted with the aim of predicting drug-biological medium interactions. in these studies, use of spectroscopic method...

1. Effects of dietary composition, energy restriction, and diabetes on hexose absorption were examined by feeding male rats isoenergetic, semi-synthetic diets of differing carbohydrate and protein content. Diets were carbohydrate, (g/kg): 890 sucrose; carbohydrate-protien, 500 sucrose, 390 casein; or protein, 890 casein. An additional group was fed on commercial rat chow ad lib. 2. Hexose (3-O-...

In this review it is hoped to trace the evolution of our concepts of the absorption of digestion products of dietary protein. Many of the ideas current today were readily accepted by the end of the last century but were ignored by orthodox physiologists during the first half of this century-concepts of sugar absorption suffered a similar fate. Although it has now become clear that brush border ...

in the current study, whey protein- pullulan- clay nanocomposite films are prepared by casting method. the effect of nanoclay at three concentrations (1%, 3% and 5%) on physical properties such as moisture content, solubility in water, water vapor permeability and transparency of whey protein- pullulan composite films investigated. the results show that the effect of nanoparticles on composite ...
