Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is one of the world’s major staple food crops, with flour produced from starchy endosperm being used for breads, cakes, noodles and various other wheat-based foods. The unique bread making properties of wheat are primarily attributed to its gluten-forming storage proteins: gliadins and glutenins. This study investigated...
Data were taken, following irradiation exposure to
100r and 300r cumulative dose, on 89 rabbits of three
breeds that vary greatly in body size. Hematological,
intestinal motility, and ear vascularity examinations
were performed. Least square estimates have been obtained and an analysis of variance has been conducted in
order estimate...
Newborn rats exhibit a torporous response to cold stress at 2°C
from which they revive after several hours exposure even though
respiratory, cardiovascular, and muscular movements have ceased.
At less severe temperatures (20 to 25°C) the rats respond with a non-torporous
decrease in metabolic and physiologic activity and a lowering...
In three separate trials rats were fed either a basal diet deficient
in selenium and vitamin E or the same diet supplemented with
one or both of these factors. In addition to these treatments in two
of the trials, ethoxyquin was included to provide adequate lipid antioxidant
protection and to...
In vitro studies of Mobam (4-benzo(b)thienyl N-methylcarbamate) metabolism have demonstrated that at least three ether soluble metabolites are formed in a microsomal system fortified with reduced triphosphopyridine nucleotide (NADPH). One of the metabolites was identical to 4HBT (4-hydroxy benzothiophene), the phenol of Mobam. The other two metabolites did not possess...
