Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the main microorganism used in wine brewing, because this microbe has potent ability to produce alcohol dehydrogenase. We have recently discovered that some genera of mushroom produced dehydrogenase, and made by using a place S. cerevisiae. The highest concentration was achieved with Pleurotus ostreatus (2.6 M, 12.2%). In case Agaricus blazei, same (1.7 8%) under both aerobic anaerobic conditions. This A. blazei contained about 0.68% β-D-glucan, which known...

To identify the chemical mediators involved in pathogenesis of allergic rhinitis, we studied effects thromboxane (TX) A2 receptor antagonist seratrodast, peptide leukotriene pranlukast and antihistamine azelastine using a guinea pig model rhinitis. In pigs actively sensitized by aerosol inhalation antigen, antigen challenge into nasal cavity increased both vascular permeability intranasal pressure; it also induced swelling mucosa, which was evaluated magnetic resonance imaging. Both...

The changes in flower color related to sepal pigmentation of cyanic Delphinium cultivars were investigated during anthesis. hues the purple and blue flowered varieties observed on initial day unfurling had changed with a decrease hue angle three days after In both cultivars, violdelphin (3) was major component one anthesis, chromaticity improved increasing concentrations cyanodelphin (4) unfurling. dominated by constitution acylated anthocyanins, ordered concentration. biosynthesis from...

Bacillus natto is the main microorganism used to make (fermented soybeans), because this microbe has good ability produce protease. However, it known that some genera of mushroom also protease, and in study we made a fermented soybean using mycelia place B. natto. We found Flammulina velutipes Roseofomes subflexibilis showed thrombosis preventing activity: prolonged thrombin clotting time 8.2 fold control.

In this 69-year-old patient, a complex left main quadrifurcation lesion was treated with stentless procedure, which resulted in sufficient dilation each branch. Dual-antiplatelet therapy continued for 3 months, followed by aspirin alone. The treatment DCB after plaque debulking DCA can be useful avoiding long-term dual antiplatelet especially patients high-bleeding risk or those who plan to undergo the non-cardiac operation.

In general, Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a main microorganism in beer brewing, because this microbe has potent ability to produce alcohol dehydrogenase. Recently, we discovered that some genera of mushroom de-hydrogenase, and made beer-like drink using place S. cerevisiae. The highest concentration was achieved with Tricholoma matsutake (1069 mM, 4.6%). This contained about 0.17% ß-D-glucan, which known have preventive effects against cancer. showed thrombosis preventing activity: prolonged...

A 1-year-old domestic shorthair cat was evaluated for a chronic history of back pain, dysuria, and paraplegia. Radiographic computed tomographic examinations showed circumferential widening the vertebral canal at T13 T14. spinal epidural abscess (SEA) compressing cord from level T11 to L1 suspected following intravenous contrast administration, confirmed by surgical exploration histopathological analysis. The recovered its motor bladder functions decompression antibiotic therapy. SEA is...

大阪近郊において，69軒の一般家庭のハウスダストを2011～2015年に採取し，含まれる殺虫剤6種類を分析し，これまでの調査と比較検討した。電気掃除機で収集したハウスダストは，アセトンによる超音波抽出後，有機リン剤のクロルピリホス，ダイアジノン，フェニトロチオンはFPD-GCで，有機塩素剤のS-421とパラジクロロベンゼン，ピレスロイド剤のペルメトリンはシリカゲルカラムで精製後，ECD-GCで分析した。クロルピリホスの検出頻度は24/60で，最高値(0.48 μg/g)と平均値(0.026 μg/g)からは，1995年(平均値0.72 μg/g)と2001年(平均値1.22 μg/g)の調査より濃度が1桁～2桁減少していることがわかった。2003年以前にシロアリ防除処理を行った家屋においてクロルピリホス汚染が高頻度にみられた。ダイアジノンは69例全てから検出されなかった。フェニトロチオン濃度の平均値は減少したが，検出頻度(41/69)はこれまでの調査と同じであった。ペルメトリンの検出頻度(31/36)は高く，最高値(13 μg/g)，平均値(1.7 μg/g)，中央値(0.36...

Abstract Background In humans, aural polyps comprise fibrovascular tissue covered by the respiratory epithelium. Aural with ciliated epithelium are common in cats but rarely reported dogs. a previous case, mass filled tympanic cavity alone, and it was surgically removed. Objectives To report case of canine polyp extending from dorsal to external auditory canal detailed otological features demonstrate usefulness transcanal endoscopic procedure (TEP) diode laser as less‐invasive therapy....

We found a new reaction of aspartic acid dehydrogenation, catalyzed by NADP(+)-dependent aspartate dehydrogenase, in vitamin B12-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae IFO 13541. The enzyme, which was purified from crude extract K.pneumoniae 13541, catalyzes the oxidative deamination to form oxaloacetic acid. This enzyme had molecular mass about 124 kDa consisting two identical subunits. L-Aspartic substrate, although D-aspartic and L-glutamic were inactive. showed maximal activity at pH 7.0-8.0...

Abstract In humans, rounded atelectasis is defined as focal lung collapse that radiologically appears a round mass‐like lesion in the periphery of lung. general, human patients with have history pleural effusion and abnormal pleura characteristic CT findings help to distinguish from pulmonary neoplasia without need for invasive surgical biopsy. This retrospective multi‐center case series describes four cats one dog. Chylothorax was seen an eosinophilic lymphoplasmacytic patient. All had...
