The effects of four concentrations (25, 50, 75, 100%) of spinach homogenate filtrate over a period of 96 hours on the body mass and transpiration rates of the pulmonate slug Milax rusticus, a crop pest found in Benghazi, Libya, are reported. A decrease in body mass and transpiration rate in filtrate treated slug over time was evident and the differences in these factors between control and trea...

The essential function of the kidney is to ensure formation of a relatively protein-free ultra-filtrate, urine. The rate of filtration and composition of the primary renal filtrate is determined by the transport of fluid and solutes across the glomerular filtration barrier consisting of endothelial cells, the glomerular basement membrane, and podocyte foot processes. In diabetes mellitus (DM), ...

API proliferation is expected to grow in the coming years. This growth further increased by recent trends digital transformation efforts undertaken organizations across spectrum. paper discusses benefits can leverage moving towards an economy and proposes a framework for execute successfully.

A CCORDING TO BLOOR ‘S METHOD of blood cholesterol determination, the fluid is extracted with a known volume of a 1:3 ether-alcohol mixture, ifitered, an aliquot of the filtrate evaporated, and the Liebermann-Burchard color reaction performed on the residue. The procedure does not allow for loss of solvent by evaporation during filtration. As this loss may be appreciable in tropical climates, i...

alpha-1-proteinase inhibitor (api) is one of the acute phase proteins. following an inflammatory stimuli the concentration of api increased up to four folds. accompanying these quantitative changes, there is qualitative alterations in the structure of carbohydrate moiety (glycosylation). to determine the alterations in the glycosylation of api in inflammation, api was isolated from the sera of ...

In this study, synthetic sulfonated polymers were used in order to enhance the rheological properties of drilling fluids. The capability of these polymers in reducing the effects of environmentally friendly, but harmful, pollutants such as cement, calcium chloride, gypsum as well as pH changes were investigated. In the present work, two sulfonated synthetic polymers, namely Polythin and Polydri...
