Recent studies indicate that defective activity of complement factor H (FH) is associated with several human diseases, suggesting that pure FH may be used for therapy.Here, we describe a simple method to isolate human FH, based on the specific interaction between FH and the hypervariable region (HVR) of certain Streptococcus pyogenes M proteins.Spe
Gooseberry powder can be used as an admixture to the confectionery short dough to improve its healthy food qualities and to increase the content of minerals and vitamins.Rheological, optical and some organoleptic properties of the dough were investigated for different contents of the powder.The viscosity of the gooseberry containing dough was found
There is a growing interest in developing an advanced technique to manufacture titanium alloy for larger holes in the aviation and marine industries.While the application of larger holes is limited due to Vitamin B the low machinability and high cost.The deep-hole trepanning is investigated to manufacture the titanium alloy in a high-efficient low-
The insulin signaling pathway has been implicated in several physiological and developmental processes.In mammals, it controls expression of 3-Hydroxy-3-Methylglutaryl CoA Reductase (HMGCR), a key enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis.In insects, which can not synthesize cholesterol de novo, the HMGCR is implicated in the biosynthesis of juvenile horm
Leatherback sea turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) nest on dynamic, erosion-prone beaches.Erosive processes and resulting nest loss have long After Shaves been presumed to be a hindrance to clutch survival.In order to better understand how leatherbacks cope with unstable nesting beaches, I investigated the role of beach erosion in leatherback nest site
