BACKGROUND: Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are the workhorse for obtaining recombinant proteins. Proteomic studies of these cells intend to understand cell biology and obtain more productive and robust cell lines for therapeutic protein production in the pharmaceutical industry. Because of the great i...
Abstract Nanoparticles demonstrate an important role in the protection of bioactive compounds from external factors such as temperature, oxygen and light. In this study, poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) nanoparticles entrapped β-carotene was produced using the nanoprecipitation method. Firstly, was ev...
ABSTRACT The present study evaluated the purification of inulinase by changing the ionic strength of the medium by addition of NaCl and CaCl2 followed by precipitation with n-propyl alcohol or iso-propyl alcohol. The effects of the concentration of alcohols and the rate of addition of alcohols in the cru...
Background: Biomineralization is a significant process performed by living organisms in which minerals are produced through the hardening of biological tissues. Herein, we focus on calcium carbonate precipitation, as part of biomineralization, to be used in applications for environmental protection, mate...
Background Thermostable DNA polymerase (Taq Pol ?) from Thermus aquaticus has been widely used in PCR, which was usually extracted with Pluthero's method. The method used ammonium sulfate to precipitate the enzyme, and it saved effort and money but not time. Moreover, we found that 30-40% activity of Taq...
BACKGROUND: Termitomyces heimii is a basidiomycete fungus that has a symbiotic relationship with termites, and it is an edible mushroom with a unique flavour and texture. T. heimii is also one of the most difficult mushrooms to cultivate throughout the world. Little is known about the growth and developm...
Macroprolactinemia caracteriza-se pelo predomínio no soro de uma prolactina (PRL) de alto peso molecular e baixa atividade biológica que não requer tratamento. A prevalência de macroprolactinemia foi avaliada em 115 pacientes consecutivos com hiperprolactinemia. Entre eles, 19 (16,5 por cento) tinham...
Introducción: La información referente al pronóstico de la epilepsia es heterogénea. Estudiamos retroprospectivamente los factores asociados a la remisión de crisis epilépticas en los pacientes del Servicio de Neurología del Hospital Belén de Trujillo. Método: Se entrevistaron a 80 epilépticos ...
