Whey protein is generally found to be faster digested and to promote faster and higher increases in plasma amino acid concentrations during the immediate ~60 min following protein ingestion compared to casein. The aim of the present study was to compare three different whey protein hydrolysates with varying degrees of hydrolysis (DH, % cleaved peptide bonds) to evaluate if the degree of whey pr...

For a Hilbert space H of functions let H H be the space of weak products of functions in H, i.e. all functions h that can be written as h = ∑∞ i=1 figi for some fi, gi ∈ H with ∑∞ i=1 ‖fi‖‖gi‖ <∞. Let D denote the Dirichlet space of the unit circle ∂D, i.e. the nontangential limits of functions f ∈ Hol(D) with ∫ D |f ′|2dA < ∞ and let Dh be the harmonic Dirichlet space, which consists of functi...

Dysiherbaine (DH) is a marine sponge-derived amino acid that causes seizures upon injection into mice. In this report we investigate the behavioral effects and characterize the pharmacological activity of DH. DH induced convulsive behaviors in mice with ED(50) values of 13 pmol/mouse, i.c.v. and 0.97 mg/kg, i.p. In rat brain synaptic membranes DH displaced binding of [3H]kainic acid (KA) and [3...

BACKGROUND Because experimental acute retinal necrosis (ARN) induced by herpes simplex virus in mice develops only if mice fail to acquire virus-specific delayed hypersensitivity (DH), although they produce antiviral antibodies (ie, anterior chamber-associated immune deviation), we sought to determine whether a similar inverse correlation exists for patients with varicella-zoster virus (VZV)-in...

BACKGROUND Disc haemorrhage (DH) is considered a characteristic sign of glaucoma, but its causative mechanism remains to be determined. We present a case of DH that occurred in association with an enlarged peripapillary intrachoroidal cavitation in a non-glaucomatous eye. CASE PRESENTATION A 35-year-old woman was evaluated for a DH that had been detected during a preoperative examination for ...

We consider the One-Prime-Not-p and All-Primes-But-p variants of the Discrete Logarithm (DL) problem in a group of prime order p. We give reductions to the Diffie-Hellman (DH) problem that do not depend on any unproved conjectures about smooth or prime numbers in short intervals. We show that the One-Prime-Not-p-DL problem reduces to DH in time roughly Lp(1/2); the All-Primes-But-p-DL problem r...

Daytime hospital for children on base of RICP is used for preventive treatment of sick children with chronic diseases, besides, a number of complications of main disease decreases. The taken analysis has shown that during the 3 years of DH operation a number of emergency medical calls for children with chronic pathologies has decreased by 23 %, frequency of full-day hospitalization has decrease...

Aminopeptidase N (APN) is important in tumour processes. The present study detected the anti‑tumour activity of the novel APN inhibitor DH‑12a, which is an indoline‑2,3‑dione derivative. In the present study, Bestatin, a clinical APN inhibitor was used as a positive control. The expression of APN in the ES-2 and 3AO cell lines were assessed using flow cytometry and the drug inhibition constants...

This article presents a computational study of saturated flow boiling in non-circular microchannels. The unit channel multi-microchannel evaporator, consisting the fluidic and surrounding evaporator walls, is simulated conjugate heat transfer problem solved. Simulations are performed using OpenFOAM v2106 built-in geometric Volume Of Fluid method, augmented with self-developed libraries to inclu...
