We have investigated the effect of UV light on three amyloido-genic proteins: prion protein, 2-microglobulin and 伪-synuclein, representing three different classes of proteins, largely 伪-helical, -sheet and natively unstructured, respectively. Of these, only prion protein undergoes amorphous ...

UV irradiation of purified mengovirus resulted in a very rapid inactivation of the infectivity of the virions (D(37) [37% survival dose] = 700 ergs/mm(2)) which correlated in time with the formation of uracil dimers in the viral RNA. During the first 2 min of irradiation, an average...
which include ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Whenever DNA damage occurs, it is sensed by DNA-repairing proteins and thereby performing the DNA-repair mechanism. Specifically, in response to DNA damage, H2AX is a key protein involved in initiating the DNA-repair processes. In this ...
In a previous study, we found that blue-light irradiation kills insects such as fruit flies, mosquitos, and flour beetles. However, the lethal effects of blue light on coleopteran field crop pests have not been investigated. Chrysomelidae, a major family in phytophagous beetles, includes many spe...
With the increasing doses of UV light, photoaging symptoms such as a decrease of collagen content and skin elasticity gradually appeared on the blank control from the third week onwards. The result was consistent with the photoaging descriptions reported in the literature, which indicated the ...
confirmed that ultrasonic treatment reduced protein aggregation and enhanced the uniformity of gluten-based films [16]. As the main antioxidant in food [17], polyphenols can interact with proteins, thereby affecting the structure, function, and nutritional properties of proteins, as well as the ...
This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of supplementing laying hen diet with phytogenic additives on laying performance, egg quality, blood constituents and egg lipid peroxidation. Two hundred Lohmann Brown Lite laying hens were randomly allotted to 4 dietary treatments: control (without phyt...
The UV–Visible spectroscopy was conducted to justify the synthesis of Cu-NPs and Ag-NPs. The aqueous solution of nanoparticles was mixed with constant ratio (1:2) in distilled water. Subsequently, were mixed well and prepared for UV analysis. The UV spectrum obtained from the synthesized nanop...
The immobilization of a capture molecule represents a crucial step for effective usage of gold nanoparticles in localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR)-based bioanalytics. Depending on the immobilization method used, the resulting capture layer is of
