(2021)Aqueous extracts from seven coloured potato varieties (three red-fleshed, three-purple fleshed, and one marble-fleshed) were studied for their anthocyanin content, in vitro biological activities, colouring properties and ... -
Biomarkers in the exhaled breath condensate of healthy adults: Mapping the path towards reference values
(2008)The need for non-invasive assessment of airway inflammation is imperative, since inflammatory airway diseases, such as asthma and COPD, are characterized by variation in their clinical presentation throughout their course. ... -
Calcium, magnesium and potassium concentrations prediction in a recirculated nutrient solution of a greenhouse soilless rose crop
(2006)The effects of i) biophysical processes such as crop water uptake, and elements absorption and ii) chemical processes such as fertilizers dissolution and pH changes, on Ca2+, Mg2+ and K+ concentration in a recirculated ... -
A capillary zone electrophoresis method for determining N-acetylneuraminic acid in glycoproteins and blood sera
(2002)A simple capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method for the determination of the content of the major sialic acid form N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) in glycoproteins was established. The present method utilizes a ... -
Challenges in microbially and chelate-assisted phytoextraction of cadmium and lead – A review
(2021)Cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) are ubiquitously present in surface soils, due to anthropogenic activities, causing threat to ecological and human health because of their carcinogenic nature. They accumulate in large quantities ... -
Characterization of the biodegradation, bioremediation and detoxification capacity of a bacterial consortium able to degrade the fungicide thiabendazole
(2017)Thiabendazole (TBZ) is a persistent fungicide used in the post-harvest treatment of fruits. Its application results in the production of contaminated effluents which should be treated before their environmental discharge. ... -
Chemical composition and bioactive compounds of garlic (Allium sativum L.) as affected by pre- and post-harvest conditions: A review
(2016)Garlic (Allium sativum L.) is considered one of the twenty most important vegetables, with various uses throughout the world, either as a raw vegetable for culinary purposes, or as an ingredient of traditional and modern ... -
Chimeric stimuli-responsive liposomes as nanocarriers for the delivery of the anti-glioma agent TRAM-34
(2021)Nanocarriers are delivery platforms of drugs, peptides, nucleic acids and other therapeutic molecules that are indicated for severe human diseases. Gliomas are the most frequent type of brain tumor, with glioblastoma being ... -
Co-composted biochar derived from rice straw and sugarcane bagasse improved soil properties, carbon balance, and zucchini growth in a sandy soil: A trial for enhancing the health of low fertile arid soils
(2022)Sustainable management of low fertile arid soils using carbon-rich organic amendments such as biochar and compost is of great concern from both agricultural and environmental points of view. The impact of pyrolysis, ... -
Comparison between the urine dipstick and the pH-meter to assess urine pH in sheep and dogs
(2018)Background: Urine pH is an integral part of a complete urinalysis, and is commonly measured in veterinary practice using semiquantitative reagent strips. Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the urine pH of dogs ... -
Continuous air tonometry of the sigmoid colon during abdominal aortic surgery
(2017)BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to record the changes in the mucosal intracellular (pHi) of the sigmoid colon during operations of the abdominal aorta, using the air tonometry method. METHODS: Patients with abdominal ... -
Correlation of pleural effusions' grayscale sonographic parameters with fluid's analysis results
(2017)Background: Quantitative sonographic methods are used to assess pleural fluid's volume but no validated method exists for the measurement of the fluids' density and other qualitative values. We suggest a quantitative method, ... -
