objective(s) motility plays a major role in pathogenicity of helicobacter pylori, yet there is  scarce data regarding its chemotactic behaviour. the present study was designed to investigate the chemotactic responses of local isolates of h. pylori towards various sugars, amino acids, as well as some other chemical substances. materials and methods chemotaxis was assayed by a modified adler’s me...

background: the aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the in vitro biofi lm forming capacity of enterococcus faecalis on gutta-percha points disinfected with four disinfectants. materials and methods: a total of 50 gutta-percha points used in this study were divided into four test groups based on disinfectant (5.25% sodium hypochlorite, 2% chlorhexidine gluconate, 20% neem, 13% benzalko...

the effects of salinity and supplied calcium chloride on growth and leaf ions concentration of tomato (lycopersicon esculentum l.) were investigated in gorgan, iran. a factorial experiment was conducted based on rcbd with four nacl levels (0, 50, 100, and 150 mm) and four cacl2 levels (0, 100, 200 and 300 mg l-1). data of growth, yield and leaf’s ca, k, and na content were subjected to analyze ...

Intact human erythrocytes can be readily loaded with calcium by incubation in hypersomotic media at alkaline pH. Erythrocyte calcium content increases from 15-20 to 120-150 nmol/g hemoglobin after incubation for 2 h at 20 degree C in a 400 mosmol/kg, pH 7.8 solution containing 100 mM sodium chloride, 90 mM tetramethylammonium chloride, 1 mM potassium chloride, and 10 mM calcium chloride. Calciu...

UNLABELLED The model of sodium and chloride transport proposed for the colon is based on studies performed in the distal segment and tacitly assumes that ion transport is similar throughout the colon. In rat distal colon, neutral sodium-chloride absorption accounts for the major fraction of overall sodium absorption and aldosterone stimulates electrogenic, amiloride-sensitive sodium absorption....

to evaluate the effect of arbuscular mycorrhiza (glomus mosseae) under salt stress on physiological and some nutrient absorption in new guinea impatiens (impatiens hawkeri), an experiment established in complete random design with three replications (three pots for each replication) in greenhouse in shahrekord university in 2014. treatments were inoculation of substrate with three levels of arb...

The mechanism of release mediated by the human dopamine and norepinephrine transporter (DAT and NET, respectively) was studied by a superfusion technique in human embryonic kidney 293 cells stably transfected with the respective transporter cDNA and loaded with the metabolically inert substrate [(3)H]1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium. Release was induced by amphetamine, dopamine, and norepinephrine o...

The mechanism by which excessive sodium chloride intake raises blood pressure has not been fully clarified. The present study was therefore undertaken in patients with essential hypertension to investigate the possible role of an intracellular calcium-dependent mechanism in salt sensitivity. The difference in mean blood pressure between a week of low sodium chloride diet (3 g/day) and a week of...
