Thermal, morphological, and mechanical properties of ethyl vanillin immobilized in polyvinyl alcohol by electrospinning process
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2014)
In this study, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanofibers with ethyl vanillin as an active compound were prepared using electrospinning technique. The final products of electrospinning process were in the form of nanofibers films. ...
Erythrocyte membranes from slaughterhouse blood as potential drug vehicles: Isolation by gradual hypotonic hemolysis and biochemical and morphological characterization
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2014)
The present study was aimed at investigating the effect of isolation process-gradual hypotonic hemolysis on chosen parameters of the erythrocyte membranes (ghosts) originating from bovine and porcine slaughterhouse blood. ...

(Vojnomedicinska akademija - Institut za naučne informacije, Beograd, 2014)
Background/Aim. The last decade has been profoundly marked by persistent attempts to use ex vivo expanded and manipulated mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), as a tool in different types of regenerative therapy. In the present ...
Novel Selenosemicarbazone Metal Complexes Exert Anti-tumor Effect via Alternative, Caspase-independent Necroptotic Cell Death
(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, Sharjah, 2014)
The synthesis and chemical characterization of the novel 2,6-diacetylpyridine-bis(selenosemicarbazone) metal complexes of Zn(II), Cd(II) and Ni(II) were published previously. Here we report first evidence on anti-proliferative ...
Offering Low-Cost Healthy Food: an Exploration of Food Manufacturers' and Retailers' Perspectives
(Wageningen Academic Publishers, Wageningen, 2014)
This study investigates food manufacturers and retailers attitudes concerning offering healthy and low-cost food to consumers. Results show that the main barriers are: price perception, costs of production, easy accessibility ...
Effects of Dietary Milled Seed Mixture on Fatty Acid Status and Inflammatory Markers in Patients on Hemodialysis
(Hindawi Ltd, London, 2014)
Background. Plant seeds have gained interest for their health benefits due to their fatty acid content. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of dietary consumption of milled sesame/pumpkin/flax seed ...
Interference of Field Evidence, Morphology, and DNA Analyses of Three Related Lysiphlebus Aphid Parasitoids (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Aphidiinae)
(Oxford Univ Press Inc, Cary, 2014)
This study provides evidence on integrating the morphological, field, and laboratory data, and application of the cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) barcoding gene to the three asexual or sexual Lysiphlebus spp., i.e., ...
Evaluation of isokinetic and isometric strength measures for monitoring muscle function recovery after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Philadelphia, 2014)
Although various strength tests and their outcome measures have been proposed for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR), their measurement properties still remain relatively underexplored. The aim of this ...
Losartan Improved Antioxidant Defense, Renal Function and Structure of Postischemic Hypertensive Kidney
(Public Library Science, San Francisco, 2014)
Ischemic acute renal failure (ARF) is a highly complex disorder involving renal vasoconstriction, filtration failure, tubular obstruction, tubular backleak and generation of reactive oxygen species. Due to this complexity, ...
The importance of cardiovascular risk factors for thrombosis prediction in patients with essential thrombocythemia
(Humana Press Inc, Totowa, 2014)
The current widely accepted stratification defined by age and previous thrombosis in patients with essential thrombocythemia (ET) probably deserves deeper analysis. The aim of our study was to identify additional factors ...
