substrate- the substance that is acted upon by an enzyme or ferment element- one of four substances thought in ancient and medieval cosmology to constitute the physical universe; "the alchemists believed that there were four elements" medium- an intervening substance through which something is achiev...
an analysis of a substance, esp. of an ore or drug:His find required an assay to determine its value. Not to be confused with: essay– try; subject to a test; a short literary composition:She wrote an essay for her final exam. ...
Induction of vasodilation via upregulation of COX and prostaglandin receptor: The COX, an enzyme also known as prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase catalyzes the formation of prostaglandin H2 (PGH2) from arachidonic acids. The PGH2 when acted upon different isozymes of synthases and isomerases yields ...
While such statistics serve as an important barometer of the political climate in the German electorate or to prepare for the challenges faced by the refugees and German society in the next years, they do not address the fundamental philosophical questions raised by this refugee crisis. In the la...
(1984) proposed the adoption of active airflow for an increase in phytoremediation potential (Fig.1). This idea was further developed by Darlington et al. (2001) with the release of his commercial active green walls, and later built upon by other researchers with the introduction of active ...
Myrtus communis L. (Family: Myrtaceae) is naturally found in the western part of Asia, Southern Europe, and North Africa. It has been reportedly applied in
The proposal sank like a stone in Washington but caused greatfermentoverseas, particularly among countries that would be unhappy if Beijing and Washington acted upon the idea. — Richard C. Bush,The United States and China, brookings.edu, 11 October 2011 ...
VCC is secreted by the bacteria as water soluble monomeric precursor molecule (Pro-VCC), which after removal of an N-terminal Pro-domain converts into the mature VCC toxin (13). Upon binding to its target cell membrane, mature VCC forms transmembrane oligomeric β-barrel channels thus leading...
reduced in the organic fractions when activated charcoal was added or when the ANEs were autoclaved, respectively, hinting at an organic and thermolabile nature of the active component. When the α-amylase activity was stimulated by exogenous GA3, this effect could be completely nullified upon additi...
the cell lysis phase was over and denitrifying bacteria activity began to decrease with the continuous consumption of organic substance23. Therefore, the NH4+-N and NO2−-N removal efficiencies fluctuated widely when the nitrogen loading rate (NLR) increased. Moreover, the higher removal rate of...
