DL-Alanine, a racemic mixture of D- and L-alanine, is used as a model reagent for development of amino acid racemic resolution techniques. DL-Alanine is used in mixed ligand (chelate) studies with transition metals such as Cu(II), Zn(ll) and Cd(ll).

The prokaryotic origins of the actin cytoskeleton have been firmly established, but it has become clear that the bacterial actins form a wide variety of different filaments, different both from each other and from eukaryotic F-actin. We have used electron

In-house analysers are commonplace in small animal practices but cannot be calibrated by the operator; therefore, any bias in the generated plasma analyte values cannot be corrected. Guidelines such as grading of renal disease and published reference intervals (RIs) in
We investigated changes in biomarkers of liver disease in HIV-HCV-coinfected individuals during successful combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) compared to changes in biomarker levels during untreated HIV infection and to HIV-monoinfected individuals. Non-invasive biomarkers of liver disease (hyaluronic acid [HYA], aspartate
The association between vitamin D status and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has not been well investigated, despite experimental evidence supporting an important role of vitamin D in liver pathophysiology. Our objective was to investigate the association between prediagnostic circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D
To develop a reproducible animal model mimicking a novel 2-staged hepatectomy (ALPPS: Associating Liver Partition and Portal Vein Ligation for Staged Hepatectomy) and explore the underlying mechanisms. ALPPS combines portal vein ligation (PVL) with liver transection (step I), followed by
Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
