canavalia brasiliensis/potassium

To isolate alpha 2-macroglobulin from human plasma, complex of Canavalia lineata DC lectin and plasma was used as a starting material. The complex was solubilized with 0.08 M phosphate buffer pH 7.2 containing 0.9% NaCl and 0.02 M alpha-methyl-D-mannoside. The solution was applied onto a Bio gel

The lectin from the seeds of Canavalia ensiformis (ConA) and Dioclea guianensis (DguiL) was tested upon its renal effects using the isolated perfusion rat kidney method. Both lectins (10 microg/ml) affected perfusion pressure and renal vascular resistance, but DguiL showed a much greater action than

The testes of prepubertal and adult horses were investigated using 10 horseradish peroxidase conjugated lectins combined with sialidase digestion and potassium hydroxide treatment, to localise the oligosaccharide sequences of glycoconjugates during spermatid maturation. In adult animals, the lectins

This green manure experiment with the use of okra crop as indicator plant was carried out at Mahasarakham University Experimental Farm, Mahasarakham province, Northeast Thailand during May to September 2005 to investigate four types of green manure legume crops on growth, yield and quality of edible

The urease proteins of the jack bean (Canavalia ensiformis) and Helicobacter pylori are similar in molecular mass when separated by non-denaturing gradient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, both having three main forms. The molecular mass of their major protein form is within the range 440-480 kDa

A series of eighteen 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives have been synthesized by treating aromatic acid hydrazides with carbon disulfide in ethanolic potassium hydroxide yielding potassium salts of 1,3,4-oxadiazoles. Upon neutralization with 1 N hydrochloric acid yielded crude crystals of

Jack bean urease (EC.3.5.1.5) was effectively immobilized onto amino functionalized epichlorohydrin cross-linked carboxymethyl cellulose (ECH-CMC) beads that were fabricated by graft co-polymerization of polyacrylamide (PAm) onto ECH-CMC beads in presence of potassium persulfate (KPS)/thiourea (TU)

Seeds of the Indian tribal pulses Canavalia gladiata (red and brown varieties), C. ensiformis and C. virosa were analysed for their physical characters, proximate composition, minerals, amino acid composition, dietary fibre constituents, starch fractions, fatty acid profiles and various

Raw and pressure-cooked ripened beans of Canavalia maritima were assessed for nutritional quality. The beans possess high protein, carbohydrate, fiber and energy contents. Potassium, magnesium, zinc and manganese of the raw and cooked beans meet NRC/NAS recommended pattern for infants. The essential

Seeds from seven species of wild legumes of the South India were analyzed for proximate composition, mineral profiles, amino acid profiles of total seed protein, in vitro protein digestibility, and certain antinutritional factors to assess their potential as alternative sources of protein crops. The

We investigated the hypothesis that lacrimal component accumulation on soft contact lenses (SCL) may be induced by an abnormal protein, glycoprotein, or trace element composition of the tear fluid. Individual tear samples were collected from healthy non-SCL wearers (normal patients) and SCL wearers

The synthesis of 15-N-acetylglucosaminides of 15 alpha-hydroxyesterone, 15 alpha-hydroxyestradiol, and 15 alpha-hydroxyestriol (estetrol) is described. The latter two were prepared by condensation of 2-acetamido-1 alpha-chloro-1,2-dideoxy-3,4,6-trio-O-acetyl-D-glucopyranose with appropriately

Raw seeds of tribal pulses Atylosia scarabaeoides, Canavalia gladiata, Lablab purpureus var. lignosus, Neonotonia wightii var. coimbatorensis, Rhynchosia filipes, Vigna trilobata and Vigna unguiculata subsp. unguiculata were investigated for their proximate composition, minerals, vitamins (niacin
