Tamarind (Tamarindus indica L) seed polysaccharide (TSP) is of great important due to its various biological activities. The present investigation was carried out to compare extraction yield, morphological characteristics, average molecular weights and antioxidant activities of TSP from gammaand electron beam (EB)-irradiated tamarind kernel powder. The tamarind kernel powder was irradiated with...

The interaction at different levels between intracellular signals elicited by cytokines and activated glucocorticoid receptors (GR) is essential for the regulation of immune responses. We describe different levels of interaction between glucocorticoids and cytokines which result in the induction or repression of gene transcription. These include the regulation of cytokine receptor expression, t...

The evolution operator for states of gauge theories in the graph representation (closely related to the loop representation) is formulated as a weighted sum over worldsheets interpolating between initial and final graphs. As examples, lattice SU(2) BF and Yang-Mills theories are expressed as worldsheet theories, and (formal) worldsheet forms of several continuum U(1) theories are given. It is a...

background: radiodine therapy (rit) for hyperthyroidism is increasingly used as a therapy of choice in most of the patients. effect of multiple factors on the result of therapy was noted. this study tries to analyze the effect of multiple factors on success rate of rit. methods and patients: one hundred and sixty four hyperthyroid patients referred for rit therapy from 1996-99, were studied. th...

in this research a comparative study has been made between case and control groups. the cases were low birth weight newborns (under 2500 gr) and the controls were normal berth weighing 2500 gr or more at birth. four groups of birth weight were considered as follows: very low birth weight, low birth weight, moderately low birth weight and normal. the data were collected over a period of 8 months...

This research was conducted to find the gray value of Weight roller weight test against engine RPM a motorized vehicle, torque is desired result. Large but still within reasonable limits fuel use, namely 1:15. After testing using Dyno test, results are processed fuzzy logic. The use rollers indeed proven be able increase machine, can change depending on value, therefore it assisted by system ge...

Pregnancy-specific stress predicts birth outcomes. We hypothesized that there is a maternal stress-GR interaction that can influence fetal birth weight. This study examined the relationship between mothers' stress and attitude towards their pregnancies, placental glucocorticoid receptors (GRs) and growth arrest-specific transcript 5 (GAS5) expression, and the status of GR polymorphism, with the...

This study was aimed to obtain the growth curve of body weight in male layer chickens (Lohman MB 202) based on Logistic and Gompertz models. The frequently data from one day age adult were used for prediction. Total thousand birds private sector poultry farm Tasikmalaya Regency, Indonesia this as source. estimation calculated (L) (G) models using Curve Expert 1.4. computer program.The final (as...
