We investigated the effect of pyridoxine
supplementation on the utilization of protein in a low-protein,
plant-based diet in four subjects (2 men and
2 women), aged 21 to 38 years. Following two days of a
negligible protein diet, this 34 day study was divided into
three dietary periods: the subjects...
Serine transhydroxymethylase (STHM), a pyridoxal 5'-
phosphate requiring enzyme is indirectly involved in
pyrimidine deoxynucleotide metabolism. A decrease in the
activity of this enzyme could lead to altered deoxycytidine
(dC) metabolism. This study was undertaken to determine if
a vitamin B-6 deficiency affects dC metabolism. The effect
of a vitamin...

Various antifoulant treatment programs and the
considerations necessary for the effective use of such
programs were examined.
Two different groups of tests, with and without
iron contamination, have been carried out on the
effectiveness of several of the state-of-the-art
copolymers (PA, HEDP, AA/HPA, AA/MA, SS/MA and AA/SA) in
the inhibition...
It has long been observed that stress can increase our
susceptibility to infectious diseases and cancers. Recent
experimental evidence suggests that this increased susceptibility is
due to suppression of immunity. A variety of neuroendocrine products
are released during periods of stress, and a large number of these
are now known...
