To determine the possible biochemical effects of prolonged weightlessness on liver function, samples of liver from rats that had flown aboard Cosmos 1887 were analyzed for protein, glycogen, and lipids as well as the activities of a number of key enzymes involved in metabolism of these compounds and
Livers from rats flown aboard COSMOS 2044 were analyzed for protein, carbohydrate (glycogen), and lipids as well as the activities of a number of key enzymes involved in metabolism of these compounds and xenobiotics. The major differences between the flight group and the synchronous control were
The use of ionic liquids (ILs) in the biorefinery process has been increasing for the past few decades. In biorefinery, the separation process with respect to sugars needs to be evaluated for an efficient process design. Therefore, the present work aims to investigate the separation of sugars and
The digestive organs of rats exposed to a combined effect of space flight factors and irradiation were examined. The surface and foveal epithelium of the stomach as well as mucocytes of the fundal glands showed a drastically reduced content of the neutral carbohydrate component. The foveal
We have examined, in the livers of rats carried aboard the Cosmos 936 biosatellite, the activities of about 30 enzymes concerned with carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. In addition to the enzyme studies, the levels of glycogen and of the individual fatty acids in hepatic lipids were determined.
Previous DFT in vacuo studies on the conformational preferences for cellobiose showed that upon optimization the φ(H)-anti conformations were of lower energy than the syn forms. Upon optimization using an implicit solvation method, COSMO, the syn or observed form was still not predicted to be of
Thirteen edible flowers, which are used as food ingredients in Japan, were evaluated as possible sources of antioxidants and biological compounds. The nutritional composition, total polyphenol content (TPC), carotenoid content, and antioxidant activity of the edible flowers were determined based on
Carbohydrates on cell surfaces are critical components of the extracellular landscape and contribute to cell signalling, motility, adhesion and recognition. Multivalent effects are essential to these interactions that are inherently weak. Carbohydrate-functionalised surfaces meet an important need
The isoenzyme composition of lactate dehydrogenase of soleus and plantaris muscles of rats flown for 20.5 d aboard the biosatellite Cosmos-690 and irradiated with a dose of 800 rad was investigated. The muscles exposed to weightlessness per se and weightlessness combined with radiation showed
We present calculations of Raman and Raman optical activity spectra of the carbohydrate molecule 1,6-anhydro-beta-D-glucopyranose. It is shown that a change from the chair to the boat conformation has a strong influence on the calculated Raman optical activity intensities. Similar results are found
The enzyme-excretory and motor functions of the gastrointestinal tract of rats flown for 18.5 days onboard the biosatellite Cosmos-1129 were studied. Immediately postflight, the pepsin synthesis decreased and the dipeptide parietal hydrolysis increased. At R + 6, the activity of the enzymes
The effect of "weightlessness" on liver metabolism was examined using tissue from rats flown in earth orbit for 18.5 days aboard the Soviet Cosmos 936 biosatellite. Changes in the activities of certain carbohydrate and lipid enzymes were noted. Of the 28 hepatic enzyme activities assayed, two,
Exercise testing on motorised treadmills provides valuable information about running performance and metabolism; however, the impact of treadmill type on these tests has not been investigated. This study compared the energy demand of running on two laboratory treadmills: an HP Cosmos (C) and a
In this work, we examined the performance of contemporary quantum mechanical implicit solvent models (SMD, SM8, SM12, and ADF-COSMO-RS) and empirical fragment-based methods for predicting octanol-water partition coefficients (log Pow). Two test sets were chosen: the first is
