This study aimed at investigating the antifungal activity of sourdough fermented (Lactobacillus plantarum LB1 and Lactobacillus rossiae LB5) wheat germ (SFWG). Preliminarily, methanol and water/salt-soluble extracts from SFWG were assayed by agar diffusion towards Penicillium roqueforti DPPMAF1. As shown by hyphal radial growth rate, the water/salt-soluble extract showed the inhibition of vario...

(28 mg, 24 µmol) was dissolved in a mixture of ethanol (2 mL) and water (1 mL). Pd/C 10% (12 mg) was added and the solution was stirred. Vacuum and H 2 were alternated and the mixture was allowed to stir under H 2 overnight. The mixture was filtered off through Celite and concentrated. The residue was dissolved in water and filtered through a 0.45 µm syringe filter and concentrated. The residue...

We study dilute solutions of poly(ethy1ene oxide) (PEO) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) mixture in water with small angle neutron scattering (SANS) experiments. The attachment of the surfactant molecules to the polymers in the form of micelles results in a repulsive interaction within the polymers, which in turn results in interesting behavior of the viscosity as a function of the SDS concentr...

Vapor-liquid equilibrium and density measurements have been performed on 1.00-5.89 m tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) in mixtures of 2-propanoland water. The VLE experiments were performed using a modified Othmer still a t ambient pressure. The effect of salt on the relative volatility of 2-propanol was evaluated at molalities of 1.00,1.79, and 5.89 over the full range of solvent composition. ...

Six experiments utilizing 81 growing crossbred barrows were designed to study the effect of salt (NaCI) supplementation on blood and excretory measurements. The measurements studied were: packed cell volume (PCV), sodium and potassium excretion, and urinary and fecal nitrogen excretion. Conventional cornsoybean meal diets with varying amounts of supplemental salt were fed along with deionized d...

Wheat straw-g-polyacrylonitrile (PAN), containing 40% PAN, was saponified with sodium hydroxide and isolated under three sets ofsaponification and work-up conditions. Each reaction mixture was separated into a water-soluble and a water-insoluble fraction, which were individually analyzed for percentages (by weight) of synthetic polymer (saponified PAN), cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. Wat...

1. The sulfonium salt H.2TDG is formed when H is mixed with even dilute solutions of TDG. Crystalline H.2TDG was isolated from such a reaction mixture. A simple method of preparation of this salt is outlined. 2. A material which differs from H.2TDG in that it hydrolyzes faster, is formed when H hydrolyzes in water. This material is probably H.1TDG but it was not isolated. Approximately 5 to 8 p...

This study examined the effect of 25% deuterium oxide in drinking water on systolic blood pressure, uptakes of calcium, and rubidium 86 by aortas of Dahl salt-sensitive rats on 0.4% (low) and 8% (high) sodium chloride (salt) diet. Twenty-four rats were divided into four groups. Groups I and II were on the low salt diet and groups III and IV on the high salt diet from 6 weeks of age. Additionall...
