Protein crystallization plays a fundamental role in structural biology and chemistry, drug discovery, crystallography itself. Determining how to improve the crystal growth is necessary vital during whole process. According recently published data, crystallizing proteins on nanoporous surfaces (i.e., metal–organic framework, abbreviated as MOF) faster demands less protein. However, dispersing mi...

This article reports the development and evaluation of two nano-emulsions (F45T-03/HFB and F15T-03/PFOB) containing fluorinated trityl radicals dissolved in perfluorocarbons. Preparation with a high-pressure homogenizer conferred sub-micronic size to both nano-emulsions. In vitro and in vivo EPR spectroscopy showed that the nano-emulsions had much greater oxygen sensitivity than the hydrophilic...

1. An improved type of ground glass homogenizer for soft tissues has been described which brings about a high degree of cell disruption and liberation of nuclei without causing appreciable damage to mitochondria. The gentleness and effectiveness of the new homogenizer in respect to isolation of mitochondria have been ascertained by comparing the ATP-ase activities of mitochondria isolated in 0....

Development und experimental testing of a new kind of dielectric barrier discharge flow reactors applicable for plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition as well as surface treatment processes at atmospheric pressure are described. Using a combination of two upstream modules, a gradient mixer and a homogenizer, the reactor is fed by a laminar gas flow with an established concentration gradient ...

results under the above chromatography condition, biuret compound (peqb) and the internal standard were detected at 4.5 and 13.5 minutes, respectively. limit of quantitation of the peqb was 0.1 µg/ml. accuracy of the method over the concentration range of 0.1-100 µg/ml was between 88-109%. inter- and intraday precisions were 4-19% and 6-8%, respectively. a good relationship in the form of a pow...

background: this study was aimed to investigate the association of consuming white rice and potato, as well as the bread type with anthropometric measures and blood pressure (bp) in a national sample of iranian children and adolescents. methods: this nationwide study was conducted in 2011-2012 among 14,880 students, aged 6-18 years, selected by multistage cluster sampling from 30 provinces of i...

conclusions examination of the fasting lipid profile has clinical importance in predicting the efficacy of peg-ifn-α-2b plus rbv combination therapy for patients with hcv g1b even after the discovery of the il28 genotype as a potent predictive factor. objectives to re-examine the significance of lipoprotein profiles on virological response to peg-ifn plus rbv combination therapy in patients wit...

the quality of pressure distribution over the atmosphere of the sea level and geopotential altitude at different atmosphere layers affect on many climate and meteorology phenomena of the earth surface. one of the important meteorology phenomenon is the occurrence of frost phenomenon especially late spring frost. in this surrey, occurring late spring frost days and minimum temperature during the...
