Controversy exists as to whether the parenterally (PN) fed human neonate is capable of synthesizing adequate cysteine from methionine if the total dietary requirement for sulfur amino acid (SAA) is provided as methionine only. The goal of this study was to gather data on whether glutathione (GSH...
While previous data compilations were rigorous2,15,16,17,18,24,25,26, there are four major areas for improvement to increase their usability and reliability. First, data compilations require a representative and comprehensive sample of the literature to best inform macrophysiological projections. For ...
Herbal products available to consumers in the marketplace may be contaminated or substituted with alternative plant species and fillers that are not listed on the labels. According to the World Health Organization, the adulteration of herbal products is
incorporation onto DL4-Fc was confirmed by Western Blot (Supplementary Fig.1a) and its subsequent conjugation to streptavidin (SA)-coated polystyrene beads (SA-beads) was assayed by flow cytometry (Fig.1b). Increasing amounts of biotinylated DL4-Fc were incubated with a constant number of SA...
Although we were able to authenticate almost half (48%) of the products, one-third of these also contained contaminants and or fillers not listed on the label. Product substitution occurred in 30/44 of the products tested and only 2/12 companies had products without any substitution, ...

We used DNA barcoding to conduct a blind test of the authenticity for (i) 44 herbal products representing 12 companies and 30 different species of herbs, and (ii) 50 leaf samples collected from 42 herbal species. Our laboratory also assembled the first standard reference material (SRM) herbal...
