Sodium and Potassium Consumption in a Semi-Urban Area in Peru: Evaluation of a Population-Based 24-Hour Urine Collection
(MDPI, 2018)
Despite the negative effects of high sodium and low potassium consumption on cardiovascular health, their consumption has not been quantified in sites undergoing urbanization. We aimed to determine the sodium and potassium ...
Alternatives for the production of Potassium Fertilizers in Argentina
(Longdom, 2019-12)
The use of potassium fertilizers on crops brings with good yields of crops and maximum profitability for farmers. Currently in Argentina, the level of production of potash fertilizers does not cover the needs of the sector ...
Extraction of potassium from microcline by chlorination
(MDPI AG, 2019-05)
A pyrometallurgical route for the extraction of potassium from microcline was investigated. The reagents used were microcline, calcite and chlorine gas. Isothermal and non-isothermal chlorination assays were performed using ...
Effect of Potassium on Saccharomyces cerevisiae Resistance to Fluconazole
(American Society for Microbiology, 2001-05)
Susceptibility of strain S288c of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to fluconazole was assayed in the presence and absence of KCl. Addition of 150 mM KCl renders the strain more sensitive to the antifungal agent. The effect is ...
Urinary Sodium and Potassium, and Risk of Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Stroke (INTERSTROKE): A Case-Control Study.
(Oxford University Press, 2021)
BACKGROUND: Although low sodium intake (<2 g/day) and high potassium intake (>3.5 g/day) are proposed as public health interventions to reduce stroke risk, there is uncertainty about the benefit and feasibility of this ...
The efficiency of potassium removal during bicarbonate hemodialysis
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2005-07)
Patients on chronic hemodialysis often portray high serum [K+]. Although dietary excesses are evident in many cases, in others, the cause of hyperkalemia cannot be identified. In such cases, hyperkalemia could result from ...
Effect of steviosides and potassium sorbate on the growth and thermal inactivation of Zygosaccharomyces bailii in acidified model aqueous systems
(Elsevier Science, 2017-06)
Zygosaccharomyces bailii growth and thermal inactivation curves were obtained in acidified aqueous systems, simulating low sugar products. Growth curves were fitted with Gompertz equation, while thermal inactivation curves ...
The KupA and KupB proteins of Lactococcus lactis IL1403 are novel c-di-AMP receptor proteins responsible for potassium uptake
(American Society for Microbiology, 2019-05)
Cyclic di-AMP (c-di-AMP) is a second messenger involved in diverse metabolic processes, including osmolyte uptake, cell wall homeostasis, and antibiotic and heat resistance. In Lactococcus lactis, a lactic acid bacterium ...
Potassium-containing hydroxylated hydrotalcite as efficient catalyst for the transesterification of sunflower oil
(Springer, 2018-09)
Different hydrotalcite-based materials were evaluated as heterogeneous catalysts for the transesterification of sunflower oil with methanol. A set of compounds based on magnesia-alumina structures (MgAl hydrotalcites) were ...
