Changes in the antibacterial capacity of Ulmo honey in relation to the contribution of Eucryphia cordifolia pollen
(VUP FOOD RESEARCH INST, BRATISLAVA, 2021)
Ulmo honey is known for its antibacterial characteristics. However, the importance of the content from Eucryphia cordifolia in the honey regarding its non-peroxidic antibacterial capacity is unknown. The present work ...
Gamma band activity in the reticular activating system
(Frontiers Head Office-Online publication, 2012-01)
This review considers recent evidence showing that cells in three regions of the reticular activating system (RAS) exhibit gamma band activity, and describes the mechanisms behind such manifestation. Specifically, we discuss ...
Interfacial activation and bioimprinting of Candida rugosa lipase immobilized on polypropylene: Effect on the enzymatic activity in solvent-free ethyl oleate synthesis
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2005-02)
Lipase from Candida rugosa adsorbed on polypropylene powder (CR/PP) was subjected to activation pre-treatments in order to enhance its activity in solvent-free ethyl oleate synthesis. The lipase activation achieved upon ...
Preparation of activated carbons from coffee husks utilizing FeCl3 and ZnCl2 as activating agents
(Elsevier Science, 2009-06)
Ferric chloride was used as a new activating agent, to obtain activated carbons (AC) from agro industrial waste (coffee husks). This material was compared with two samples from the same raw material: one of them activated ...
Interaction between the retrotrapezoid nucleus and the parafacial respiratory group to regulate active expiration and sympathetic activity in rats
(Amer Physiological Soc, 2018-11-01)
The retrotrapezoid nucleus (RTN) contains chemosensitive cells that distribute CO2-dependent excitatory drive to the respiratory network. This drive facilitates the function of the respiratory central pattern generator ...
Hypercapnia-induced active expiration increases in sleep and enhances ventilation in unanaesthetized rats
(2018-08-01)
Key points: Expiratory muscles (abdominal and thoracic) can be recruited when respiratory drive increases under conditions of increased respiratory demand such as hypercapnia. Studying hypercapnia-induced active expiration ...
