N.; Tarkeshwar, Ram; Shiv Poojan Maurya and Radheshyam Mishra (2010): Studies on the effect of low temperature on the duration of embryonic life, hatching percentage, wet weight, water and glucose levels and acid phosphatase activity during embryogenesis in eggs of Corcyra cephalonica (Stainton...
Dextrose is a form of glucose (sugar). Dextrose 5% in water is used to treat low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), insulin shock, or dehydration (fluid loss).
In addition, when faced with water stress, expanding leaves and growing root tips commonly accumulate solutes, especially inorganic ions such as K+ and Ca2+, but also sugars such glucose and fructose and, to a lesser extent, amino acids such as proline and organic acids such as malate (...
In a patient with glucose- or urea-induced osmotic diuresis (see Chapter 12), the urine is hypotonic with a concentration of Na+ + K+ ions of typically 50 mmol/L. Hence, a water deficit and hypernatremia may develop. Water loss could also be because of a renal concentrating defect. A...
Salt supports “hyperosmolarity” of extracellular fluids, which has positive effects on your metabolism because it helps with the breakdown of proteins and glucose. Plus, a diet that’s very low in salt causes more aldosterone to be synthesized, as shown in animal research, which can have effe...
Glucose levels tended to increase only following three days of water deprivation during summer. Both breeds responded to water deprivation in a similar manner during winter and spring seasons. On the other hand, Najdi breed had consistently higher responses during summer dehydration period particularly ...
The sweetness of a watermelon is determined by both the total sugar content and the ratios among the major accumulated sugars: glucose, fructose and sucrose45. In young 97103 fruit flesh, fructose and glucose are the predominant sugars, whereas in mature 97103 fruit flesh, both sucrose and ...
To alleviate the oxygen inhibition during moulding process, glucose (Sigma-Aldrich G8270) and glucose oxidase (Sigma-Aldrich G7141) were added in to pre-gel solution as an oxygen scavenger. For surface treatment of elastomeric hydraulic connections, benzophenone (Sigma-Aldrich B9300) was used. As...
The relationship between local rates of cerebral glucose utilization (ICMRglc) and glucose transporter expression was examined during physiologic activation of the hypothalamoneurohypophysial system. Three days of water deprivation, which is known to activate the hypothalamoneurohypophysial system, resulted...
Later, researchers discovered that animals are able to synthesize vitamin C themselves from the sugars glucose and galactose, and hence do not require dietary vitamin C. However, humans, other primates and guinea pigs all depend on external sources to cover their vitamin C requirements. Vitamin ...
