One group of four adult White Leghorn male chickens was fed a
diet containing 7.3% linoleic acid and 32.4 mg/ kg of added vitamin E
(group IV) for 50 weeks which was designated as the positive control.
A second lot (group I) containing 14 males received the same level of...
An in vitro study was conducted to investigate the metabolism and distribution of Se⁷⁵-selenite and Se⁷⁵-selenomethionine (SEM) in
chick blood. Se⁷⁵-selenite is taken up by RBC (13% within 20
minutes) and expelled into the plasma to become bound to proteins. In
contrast, Se⁷⁵-SEM showed a more gradual and continuous buildup...
The relative enrichment of skin sebaceous gland lipids with deuterium-labeled α-tocopherol was compared with plasma enrichment to evaluate the delivery of vitamin E to skin. For the first week of this study, each subject consumed a daily dose of deuterated vitamin E (150 mg of an equimolar mixture of RRR-α-[5-(C²H₃)]-(d₃)...
Vitamin E was first described in 1922 as an unknown factor required for impregnated rats to carry their offspring to term. In fact, when vitamin E was chemically characterized it was given the name "tocopherol" derived from the Greek: tokos = childbirth; phero = to bear; and –ol, indicating an...

■ What
The purpose of this watershed assessment is to provide an inventory and characterization of
watershed conditions in the Wilson River watershed and to provide recommendations that
address the issues of water quality, fisheries and fish habitat, and watershed hydrology.
Phytochemical profiles and antioxidant activity of four historical
grape accessions (‘Kuzu Kuyrugu’, ‘Miskali’, ‘Erkek Miskali’, and
‘Kirmizi Kismis’) grown in Igdir province located in Eastern Anatolia
Region of Turkey were examined. The amount of vitamin C,
organic acids (citric acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, succinic acid and
fumaric acid), sugars...
Recommendations are provided in this watershed analysis to identify actions and management decisions on the part of BLM that might improve watershed health in the Trask River watershed.
The objective of our study was to investigate the effect of selenium on
selenoprotein W. Western blot analysis indicated that selenoprotein W is present in
muscle, brain, testis and spleen of rat tissues. Tissue distribution of selenoprotein W
was not altered in rats fed various selenium levels. Among muscle, brain,...
Rat selenoprotein W (SeW) promoter activity was investigated using different concentrations of cadmium, copper, and zinc. Two fragments (404bp and 1265bp) of the SeW promoter, containing a single metal response element (MRE), were ligated into the multiple cloning site of a pGL3-Basic reporter plasmid. The constructs were transfected into cultured...
The primary goal of my study was to evaluate the effects of high dietary vitamin E on the rodent skeleton. The outcomes from my study assess the impact of high intakes of vitamin E and increased concentrations of its metabolite, carboxy ethyl hydroxy chromanol (CEHC), on bone turnover and skeletal...
Two lots of six White Leghorn male chickens were fed diets containing
7.3% linoleic acid and either .075% ethoxyquin (lot 1) or 32.4
mg/kg of added vitamin E (lot II) for 47 weeks both of which were
designated as positive controls. A third group (lot III) containing 30
males received...
The primary purpose of this investigation was to characterize
the lipids of the spores and vegetative cells of Cl. botulinum. A
second purpose was to explore the possibility that lipids might serve
as a means of differentiating the chiefly proteolytic Cl. botulinum
type B from the nonproteolytic Cl. botulinum types...
The slope parameter "a" of the π ° - electromagnetic transition form factor was obtained from a measurement of the partial branching ratio of the Dalitz decay π° - e⁺ e⁻ y into high invariant-mass electron-positron pairs. The experiment was carried out at the TRIUMF cyclotron laboratory. A beam of...
Lipid peroxidation is believed to be an important
process in the development of cellular injury. In
addition to the degradation of biological membranes,
increasing evidence indicates that lipid peroxidation can
alter the structure and function of DMA.
The present study examines the peroxidation of
nuclear membranes and the capacity of...
Tocopherols are plant secondary metabolites that are known collectively as
vitamin E. Tocopherol compounds act as potent antioxidants by quenching free
radicals and protecting fatty acids from oxidative damage. In humans (in vivo)
tocopherols protect membrane lipids from breaking down, while in oils (in vitro)
tocopherols protect fatty acids from...
Signal transduction within and between cells is at the core of biological activity in all living systems. Signaling networks are required for regulating biological functions, including growth, development and survival. Deregulation of signaling cascades has been linked to chronic and acute diseases and disorders This thesis focuses on mass spectrometry...

Несколько видов ягодных культур коммерчески выращивают в штате Орегон, в том числе, летом плодоносящие и плетье-плодоносящие малины (красная и черная) и ежевика то есть ажина. Эта публикация направлена на оценку содержания и внесения питательных веществ, применяющихся в выращивании кустарных ягод в западной части Орегона.
As a result of warming temperatures and subsequently declining snowpacks, forest fires are increasing in frequency, intensity and extent across the western USA. In turn, forest fire disturbance affects patterns of snow accumulation and ablation by reducing canopy interception and modifying the snowpack energy balance. Following a 2011, high severity...
