Abstract: Several studies have demonstrated that bovine whey produced by cheese maker industry contains several bioactive factors promoting health and preventing disease. Although many efforts have been made over the years to show that immunoglobulins, lactoperoxidase, lactoferrin, lysosyme and small peptides present in whey have antimicrobial activities against several pathogenic microorganisms, such activity has not been investigated so far for the lipid fraction of whey. There, is disclosed a method of inhibiting the germination of Candida albicans using free fatty acids derived from whey cream. Further fractionation by HPLC demonstrates that this activity can be mainly attributed to lauric, myristoleic, linoleic and arachidonic acids.

Abstract: L'histone désacetylase est une métallo-enzyme comportant du zinc au niveau de son site actif. Les composés possédant un groupe caractéristique de liaison au zinc, par exemple un groupe alpha-céto-époxyde, tel qu'un groupe alpha-cétothio, peuvent inhiber l'histone désacétylase. L'inhibition de l'histone désacétylase peuvent réprimer l'expression de gènes, notamment l'expression de gènes associés à la suppression de tumeurs. En conséquence, l'inhibition de l'histone désacetylase peut constituer une voie détournée de traitement du cancer, des troubles hématologiques, tels que les hémoglobinopathies, des affections autosomiques dominantes, telles que la maladie d'Aran-Duchenne et la maladie de Huntington, des troubles métaboliques d'origine génétique, tels que la mucoviscidose et la leucodystrophie avec insuffisance surrénale, ou elle peut permettre la stimulation <i>ex vivo</i> de cellules hématopoïétiques.

Granted: 2010-07-20
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for expeditiously releasing network resources for a mobile station based on low battery and lost signal conditions are disclosed. The wireless network receives a power down warning message from the mobile station indicative of a low battery condition. The wireless network then identifies whether a lost signal condition exists with the mobile station. In response to receiving the power down warning message and subsequently identifying the lost signal condition, the wireless network causes network resources for the mobile station to be released. The wireless network infers that the mobile station has powered down due to low battery without enough time to send a power down registration to the wireless network.

Abstract: Disclosed is a hydrogen storage alloy material which is prepared by subjecting an amorphous alloy to a heat treatment in air or an oxygen atmosphere. The amorphous alloy has a composition, in atomic %, expressed by the following formula: Zr 100-a-b Pd a M b(wherein 15 <=a<=40, 0 < b <= 10, and M is at least one metal selected from the group consisting of Pt, Au, Fe, Co and Ni). The Pd, the metal M and one or more compounds thereof are dispersed in a parent phase of ZrO2 in the form of ultrafine particles. This alloy material exhibits a hydrogen storage amount of 2.5 weight % or more in a weight ratio relative to Pd contained in the material, and suited to a hydrogen storage/transportation medium. The alloy material can be produced by preparing a melt of a master alloy formed through a melting process, rapidly solidifying the melt at a cooling rate of 104 K/s or more to form the above amorphous alloy, and subjecting the amorphous alloy to an oxidizing heat treatment in air or an oxygen atmosphere at 250 to 350°C  to selectively oxidizing the alloy element of Zr so as to allow the hydrogen storage metal of Pd or a Pd compound to be dispersed in a parent phase of ZrO2 in the form of nanoparticle-size ultrafine particles.
