background and objective: antibiotic consumption is the main way to cure infection induced by helicobacter pylori. on the other hand, antibiotics have side effects on human body. so, finding an efficient way to replace antibiotic consumption seems necessary. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of broccoli sprout extract on the viability of probiotic bacteria and yogurt’s physico...

Sprout is a new lightweight stream cipher proposed at FSE 2015. According to its designers, Sprout can resist time-memory-data trade-off (TMDTO) attacks with small internal state size. However, we find a weakness in the updating functions of Sprout and propose a related-key chosen-IV distinguishing attacks on full Sprout. Under the related-key setting, our attacks enable the adversary to detect...

Sprout is an end-to-end transport protocol for interactive applications that desire high throughput and low delay. Sprout works well over cellular wireless networks, where link speeds change dramatically with time, and current protocols build up multi-second queues in network gateways. Sprout does not use TCP-style reactive congestion control; instead the receiver observes the packet arrival ti...

Breast cancer is one of the major cancers in women, and dietary intake must be controlled to prevent it. Selenium (Se), especially Se compound in vegetables, is thought to be a promising chemopreventive dietary ingredient for preventing breast cancer. In this study, we developed Se-enriched Japanese radish sprout using a special Se-additional fertilizer, and identified the Se chemical forms. Th...

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Perilla frutescens (L.) Britton var. (PF) sprout is a plant of the labiate family. We have previously reported the protective effects of PF sprout extract on cytokine-induced β-cell damage. However, the mechanism of action of the PF sprout extract in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) has not been investigated. The present study was designed to study the effects of PF sprout extract a...

the present study investigated the radioprotective efficacy of lentil ( lens culinaris ) sprouts against x-ray radiation-induced cellular damage. lentil seeds were dark germinated at low temperature and the sprout extract was prepared in pbs. free radical scavenging of extract was evaluated using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (dpph) assay and then the radioprotective potency of extract (0 to 10...

Sprout is a novel generative model for ChIA-PET data that characterizes physical chromatin interactions and points of contact at high spatial resolution. Sprout improves upon other methods by learning empirical distributions for pairs of reads that reflect ligation events between genomic locations that are bound by a protein of interest. Using these learned empirical distributions Sprout is abl...

Tissue and organ viability depends on the proper systemic distribution of cells, nutrients, and oxygen through blood vessel networks. These networks arise in part via angiogenic sprouting. Vessel sprouting involves the precise coordination of several endothelial cell processes including cell-cell communication, cell migration, and proliferation. In this review, we discuss zebrafish and mammalia...

The effects of reducing pork fat levels from 20% to 15% or 10% by partially substituting pork back fat with wheat sprout fiber in reduced-fat chicken patties were investigated. Approximate composition, energy value, pH, color, cooking loss, reduction in diameter, reduction in thickness, shear force, and sensory properties were determined. Moisture content, ash contents, yellowness of uncooked a...

Collective cell motility and its guidance via cell-cell contacts is instrumental in several morphogenetic and pathological processes such as vasculogenesis or tumor growth. Multicellular sprout elongation, one of the simplest cases of collective motility, depends on a continuous supply of cells streaming along the sprout towards its tip. The phenomenon is often explained as leader cells pulling...
