High serum levels of p-cresol have been associated with cardiovascular diseases. This study investigated the effects of p-cresol on gap junctions in neonatal cultured cardiomyocytes. p-Cresol reduced the spontaneous contraction rates of cardiomyocytes, and caused irregular cardiomyocyte beating. Junctional connexin

Wheat bran extract (WBE) is a food-grade soluble fibre preparation that is highly enriched in arabinoxylan oligosaccharides. In this placebo-controlled cross-over human intervention trial, tolerance and effects on colonic protein and carbohydrate fermentation were studied. After a 1-week run-in period

Cholesterol ester (ChE) and triacylglycerol (TG) hydroperoxides in human plasma were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography with postcolumn detection with diphenyl-1-pyrenylphosphine. Human plasma was extracted once with n-hexane. 2,6-Di-tert.-butyl-4-methylphenol and N-stearylcinnamide were added to human plasma before extraction as an
In this paper, the reduced graphene oxide and multiwall carbon nanotubes hybrid materials (RGO-MWNTs) were prepared and a strategy for detecting environmental contaminations was proposed on the basis of RGO-MWNTs modified electrode. The hybrid materials were characterized by the scanning
Ionophore-free ion exchanger electrodes were found to exhibit quite a high selectivity for the creatininium ion; however, measurements in diluted urine samples revealed large emf drifts. Potentiometric, chromatographic, NMR, and mass spectrometric evidence did not reveal any major cationic interfering
