Desirable membrane materials are those that exhibit highionic conductivityand simultaneously preventelectron transportand the cross-over of hydrogen and oxygen gases. In addition, they must be chemically stable in the environment with HO and HOO radicals, thermally stable throughout the entire operating ...
DASH stands for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (high blood pressure). While it aims to stop hypertension, the DASH diet can help prevent other diseases like osteoporosis, heart disease, and cancer. The DASH diet aims to keep sodium levels low while eating 6-8 servings of grains, 4-...
Like nearly all metazoan cells, cancer cells possess mechanisms to respond to heterogeneity in the supply of oxygen, including activation of a family of hypoxia-inducible transcription factors (HIF-1α, HIF-2α, and HIF-3α)16,17, cell cycle arrest, a coordinated decrease in oxidative phosphory...
Inflammation is defined as the normal response of living tissue to injury or infection. It is important to emphasize two components of this definition. First, that inflammation is a normal response and, as such, is expected to occur when tissue is damaged. Infact, if injured tissue does not ...
In 1546 the Italian scholar Girolamo Fracastoro (Hieronymus Fracastor- ius) proposed transmittable, imperceptible seed-like particles (semi- naria morbi) as causative agents for the outbreak of certain diseases.4 It took several centuries to prove that bacteria are one example of such 'particles'....
These dimetal centers reside in a ferritin-like scaffold, and are coordinated by two histidine residues and four carboxylate ligands. The radical species, generated in the R2 subunit, is subsequently transferred to the catalytic subunit R1 for the formation of a cysteine thiyl radical, which, in...

These gellants, however, like many other gellants known in the art, are not acid stable and therefore tend to interact with the antiperspirant active due to the acidic nature of the active. This interaction can result in reduced efficacy of the active, poor gel formation, and lower gel ...
to have order in all directions, X, Y and Z then liquid crystals are phases that are ordered or crystalline in only one or two of their three possible orthogonal directions and are disordered (random or liquid-like) in the other dimensions. Cross-linked polymers have the back bones of the...
