The effect of different doses of sulphadimidine (250, 500, 750 and 1000 mg) on acetylation capacity in 10 normal individuals was investigated in a randomized cross-over study design. The subjects were initially phenotyped with an oral dose of 750 mg of sulphadimidine. Four weeks later, each subject was assigned four different doses of sulphadimidine. The acetylator phenotype was classified for ...

AIM Objective of the study was to examine the injury incidence in the Spanish Professional Soccer League, and to analyse differences between competition and training. METHODS Sport injuries data from 11 out of 22 Spanish second division soccer teams (301 players) were prospectively collected during the season 2008/2009. RESULTS A total of 891 injuries (111 recurrence injuries) were identifi...

NO2 fission is a vital factor for 1,3,5-Trinitroperhydro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) and octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine (HMX) decomposition. In this study, the geometry of the gas-phase RDX and HMX molecules was optimized, and the bond order and the bond dissociation energy of the N-N bonds were examined. Moreover, the rate constants of the gas-phase RDX and HMX conformers, concernin...

Electrophoretic exclusion, a technique that differentiates species in bulk solution near a channel entrance, has been demonstrated on benchtop and microdevice designs. In these systems, separation occurs when the electrophoretic velocity of one species is greater than the opposing hydrodynamic flow, while the velocity of the other species is less than that flow. Although exclusion has been demo...
