The traditional filter paper assay for saccharifying cellulase
originally described by M. Mandels et al (1976) has been modified to
make possible low activity determinations of Trichoderma
cellulases. The enzymatic activity appears to decline during a
prolonged incubation period if no precautions have been taken. By
means of adding bovine...
This investigation was designed to assess the effects of a victim's
race and stereotypical characteristics on another subject's willingness

Correlation of surrogacy attitudes was subsequently
related to six other instruments: AIDS,...
Digestion of milk proteins in the premature infant stomach releases functional peptides; however, which peptides are present has not been reported. Premature infants are often fed a combination of human milk and bovine milk fortifiers, but the variety of functional peptides released from both human and bovine milk proteins remains...
