l aspartic acid/dental caries

A new molecularly imprinted polymer-matrix (titanium dioxide nanoparticle/multiwalled carbon nanotubes) nanocomposite was developed for the modification of pencil graphite electrode as an enantioselective sensing probe for aspartic acid isomers, prevalent at ultra trace level in aqueous and real

L-Asparaginase (L-asparagine amidohydrolase, EC 3.5.1.1) catalyzes the hydrolysis of L-asparagine to L-aspartic acid and ammonia. It can be used to reduce the formation of acrylamide, which is carcinogenic to humans in foods, via removal of the precursor, asparagine, from the primary ingredients.

We have studied the correlation between the level of D-aspartic acid in dentin and the period of dentin formation in different types of teeth from the same individual. Except for the third molar, it is generally agreed that the formation of permanent dentin follows the pattern of growth, occurring

The laser crater enhanced Raman scattering (LCERS) spectroscopy technique has been systematically studied for chosen sampling strategy and influence of powder material properties on spectra intensity enhancement. The same nanosecond pulsed solid state Nd:YAG laser (532 nm, 10 ns, 0.1-1.5 mJ/pulse)

Although morel mushrooms are widely used as tasty ingredients in savory dishes, knowledge of the key compounds evoking their attractive taste is still very fragmentary. In the present study, taste activity-guided fractionation of an aqueous morel extract by means of the recently developed taste

Raman signal enhancement by laser crater production was systematically studied for 785 nm continuous wave laser pumping. Laser craters were produced in L-aspartic acid powder by a nanosecond pulsed solid state neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet laser (532 nm, 8 ns, 1 mJ/pulse), while Raman

Lymphoma 6C3HED-OG cells, known from previous work to be susceptible to the effects of guinea pig serum in vivo and dependent upon extrinsic asparagine for protein synthesis and growth in vitro, remained for the most part morphologically intact and countable in the electronic cell counter following

When the model protein bovine serum albumin (BSA) was dissolved in a concentrated aqueous solution of the multifunctional ligand L-malic acid, the solution was lyophilized, and the solid residue thoroughly washed with tetrahydrofuran to extract malic acid, then the resultant ("imprinted") protein

The present work is related to combination of molecularly imprinted solid-phase microextraction and complementary molecularly imprinted polymer-sensor. The molecularly imprinted polymer grafted on titanium dioxide modified silica fiber was used for microextraction, while the same polymer immobilized

Bdellastasin is a 59-amino-acid, cysteine-rich, antistasin-type inhibitor of sperm acrosin, plasmin and trypsin, isolated from the medicinal leech Hirudo medicinalis. The complex formed between bdellastasin and porcine beta-trypsin has previously been crystallized in the presence of PEG in a

The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of applying the polymer-induced liquid-precursor (PILP) method to enhance silver diamine fluoride (SDF) therapy. One hundred forty micrometer deep artificial caries lesions were treated with (A) 38% SDF solution and (B) 38% SDF containing

Structural features and dynamical behaviour of the copper(ii) bis-complexes with glycine, d-alanine, d-valine, l-serine, l-aspartic acid, l-glutamic acid, l-lysine, l-proline, and sarcosine were studied by combined EPR and NMR relaxation methods. The cis and trans isomers were unambiguously assigned

Carrier-based formulations of cytotoxic agents may be highly efficacious for intracavitary therapy of malignancies which reside in or metastasize to the peritoneal cavity. N-(Phosphonacetyl)-L-aspartic acid (PALA) is a transition-state inhibitor of aspartate transcarbamylase which has shown enhanced

OBJECTIVE To determine possible mechanisms that shape the negative electroretinograms (ERGs) in rats with photoreceptor degeneration induced by destruction of the retinal pigment epithelium. METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 48) were injected intravenously with 60 mg/kg of sodium iodate (NaIO(3)).

It was hypothesized that applying the polymer-induced liquid-precursor (PILP) system to artificial lesions would result in time-dependent functional remineralization of carious dentin lesions that restores the mechanical properties of demineralized dentin matrix. 140 µm deep artificial caries
