Sera from (i) gnotobiotic BALB/c, CD-1, and CFW mice and (ii) conventional BALB/c mice were evaluated by radioimmunoassay, radioimmunoprecipitation, and plaque reduction neutralization, using the Wa, SA-11, and WC-3 (bovine) strains of rotavirus as the detecting antigens. The gnotobiotic mice had no antirotavirus antibody detectable by radioimmunoprecipitation and no neutralizing antibody at a ...

Arabica coffee (Coffea Arabica) becomes one of the most in-demand types by community due to its typical taste. The right method and brewing device are needed obtain this taste coffee. One methods that keeps developing until now is manual method. This study aims find sensory characteristic Gayo in various varieties with devices using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) Manual used were Vietnam Dr...

in western countries such as united states data from 2002-2006 showed that at least 1.7 million people sustain a traumatic brain injury (tbi) each year. of those individuals, about 52,000 die, 275,000 are hospitalized, and 1.365 million are treated and released from an emergency department. in 2000, direct medical costs and indirect costs such as lost productivity of totaled an estimated $76.5 ...

Sustained contractile activity of skeletal muscle promotes angiogenesis, as well as transformation of contractile protein isoforms and mitochondrial proliferation within myofibers. Since the products of immediate early genes such as c-fos, c-jun, and egr-1 function in many signaling pathways governing cellular responses to external stimuli, we sought to determine whether sustained contractile a...

The assembly of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules involves the association of heavy (H) chain with beta 2-microglobulin (beta 2m) and peptide. Unassembled class I H chains do not exit the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and this is exemplified by the beta 2m-deficient human melanoma FO-1 where free class I H chains are unable to complete assembly. In pulse chase experiments in...

Interstitial retinol-binding protein (IRBP) is a soluble glycoprotein in the interphotoreceptor matrix of bovine, human, monkey, and rat eyes. It may transport retinol between the retinal pigment epithelium and the neural retina. In light-reared Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) and RCS retinal dystrophy gene (rdy)+ rats, the amount of IRBP in the interphotoreceptor matrix increased in correspond...
