introduction: hydrocolloids are widely used in food systems as an emulsifying or stabilizing agent. one way to improve the emulsifying properties of hydrocolloids is complexation with proteins. in general, protein and hydrocolloid components may be combined together by either a) covalent bonding (conjugates) or b) electrostatic complexing. conjugates can be efficiently prepared during the stora...

objective: in previous studies it has been emphasized that the site of morphine action may be either in the embryo or the placenta. in the present study, we attempt to identify the site of morphine action on the fetal section of wistar rat placenta by using c14-morphine. materials and methods: in this study (experimental), female wistar rats (weights: 170-200 g) were mated with male rats and th...

developing simple, sensitive and selective sensing systems for dopamine is important due to its biological significance. in this work, a silver nanoparticles-modified carbon paste electrode (agnps-cpe) has been constructed and used to detect of dopamine (da) in the simultaneous presence of ascorbic acid (aa) and uric acid (ua) at neutral ph 7.0 by cyclic voltammetry. the modified electrode show...

Context. Over the past few years several studies have provided estimates of the SFR (star-formation rate) or the total infrared luminosity from just one infrared band. However these relations are generally derived for entire galaxies, which are known to contain a large scale diffuse emission that is not necessarily related to the latest star-formation episode. Aims. We provide new relations to ...

furan is a possible human carcinogen in many types of foods. a new and sensitive electroanalytical method for determination of furan has been developed and validated. the best condition forelectrochemical response was obtained with 0.1 m britton-rabinson buffer solution (ph=5) a glassy carbonelectrode (gce) was used as the working electrode, a ag/agcl/ kcl(sat.) electrode served as the referenc...

the aim of the present study was to find the effects of pre and post vitrification taxol treatment on bovineimmature cumulus oocyte complexes (cocs). bovine ovaries were collected from the local slaughterhousein a container with 30-37°c physiologic saline and supplemented with antibiotics. the grade a aspiratedcocs were assigned to 6 experimental groups; the 1st group was control (n=100) in whi...

the adsorption processes of amlodipine onto hydrophilic carbon nanoparticles (emperor 2000tm) are investigated. the significant increase in voltammetric responses for pre-adsorbed amlodipine compared with those for solution confirms high affinity of amlodipine to carbon nanoparticles (possibly due to π-π stacking interaction between aromatic rings of amlodipine and surface-sulfonated carbon nan...
