Heterogeneous distribution of pectin epitopes and calcium in different pit types of four angiosperm species
Download2011
Intervessel pits act as safety valves that prevent the spread of xylem embolism. Pectin–calcium crosslinks within the pit membrane have been proposed to affect xylem vulnerability to cavitation. However, as the chemical composition of pit membranes is poorly understood, this hypothesis has not...

Mannitol at clinical concentrations activates multiple signaling pathways and induces apoptosis in endothelial cells
Download1998
Vandorpe, D.H., Izumo, S., Malek, A.M., Goss, G.G., Jiang, L., Alper, S.L.
Background and Purpose—Hyperosmotic mannitol therapy is widely used in the clinical setting for acute and subacute reduction in brain edema, to decrease muscle damage in compartment syndrome, and to improve renal perfusion. Though beneficial rheological effects commonly are attributed to...

Microbiological evaluation of egg shell powder and optimization of its preparation technique
Download2007
Serafini, Álvaro B., Prado, Carla M., Fernandes, Daniela C., Naves, Maria M. V.
The research aimed to analyze the microbiological profile of the dust of the chicken eggshell distributed to needy communities, as an alternative source of calcium, as well as optimize the product development technique, targeting efficacy and safety in hygienic-sanitary terms. Sampling was...
