data regarding the effects of dietary protein on modifying serum lipid and lipoprotein levels are controversial. in this study we have investigated the hypothesis whether dietary protein and protein to carbohydrate ratio could be related to subsequent changes in lipid profile in adults.this 3-yaers follow-up_longitudinal study was conducted on a sample of participants (845 men and 1043 women, a...

it is not clear what factors determine divergent outcomes of infections caused by h. pylori . in the present study, the protein profiles of different strains of h. pylori, isolated from three groups of patients with ulcerative disease, non-ulcerative gastritis and cancer disease, were analyzed using 1dsds-page. the patterns of different h. pylori strains were highly divergent. about 30.76% (7 b...

Nutri-bars were prepared (110 g) using dates (64 g), dried apricots (16 cheddar cheese (8 whey protein isolate (12 and roasted-chickpea flour (10 g). Bars for Pakistani-athletes based on their calories requirement (3500-3925 kcals/day, 1.4-1.8 g/kg body weight). Efficacy trials performed (1, 15 30 days) to evaluate the effect of nutri-bars blood serum profile, stamina building body-composition....

Maturity was studied on 273 rainbow trout of both sexes. The female gonads were classed into 3 maturation stages and the male gonads into 4. Characteristic pherograms of both serum protein electrophoresis and total serum protein corresponded with maturation stage. Electrophoretic globulin and total protein fractions increased considerably with spermatogenetically active testes and mature ovarie...

Accurate and reproducible measurement of M-proteins is essential for managing patients with monocional gammopathies, but serum protein electrophoresis, radial immunodiffusion, and electroimmunodiffusion yield comparatively divergent results. We have studied these differences and their causes. Sera from cases of IgG-monoclonal gammopathy, IgA-monoclonal gammopathy, and IgM-monoclonal gammopathy ...

Some years ago, Theobald Smith and his associates (1) showed that passive immunity acquired by the new-born calf from colostrum is of prime importance in protection against infectious disease. At about the same time, Orcutt and Howe (2) observed that, after the ingestion of colostrum, agglutinins appear in the calf serum associated with a globulin which is precipitable at low concentrations of ...

Abstract The effects of hydrolysis by commercial food-grade proteases on the physicochemical and techno-functional properties lentil protein concentrate were investigated. Lentil was hydrolysed with Alcalase, Novozym 11028 or Flavourzyme, a control prepared without enzyme addition under same conditions. Differences in specificity between three evident electrophoretic profile, reversed-phase HPL...

the bulk of our knowledge on immunosuppression in malnutrition comes from the experiments done on cell-mediated immunity. however, malnutrition-induced modifications of humoral immunity have been less understood. the objective of this study was to determine the effects of acute protein-energy malnutrition on serum levels of immunoglobulins and their subclasses in murine models. male and female ...
