Purification of Vitamin D Binding Protein and Its Role in the Uptake of 25-Hydroxyvitamin D by Cultured Kidney Cells (Mdck Cells, Tissue Culture, Dbp)
… the isolation of vitamin D binding protein (DBP) and its use in studies investigating the uptake of 25(OH)D(,3) by kidney cell lines. DBP was isolated from pig plasma in three steps: chromatography on DEAE cellulose and DEAE Sephadex, followed by chromatofocusing. The procedure represents a …

EXERCISE BLOOD PRESSURE IN ADOLESCENCE AND BLOOD PRESSURE FIVE YEARS LATER IN PERSONS BORN WITH VERY LOW BIRTH WEIGHT
… consumption (VO2). Systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) BP were measured manually every two minutes during and at peak exercise. The slopes of SBP and DBP in relation to VO2 (ml/kg/min) during exercise were calculated. Five years later, resting BP was measured in triplicate with a mercury …

Cytotoxicity and Mutagenicity of Disinfection Byproduct Mixtures Formulated Using Free Chlorine and Monochloramine
… of drinking water disinfection byproducts (DBPs), but an emphasis on single compounds prevails. In this research, DBP mixtures were assessed using a cytotoxicity test with Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells and an Ames fluctuation test with Salmonella typhimurium TA-98 and TA-100 with and …

Finite fraction method for tracking desinfection by-product precursors in water treatment
… Disinfectants/Disinfection By-Product Rule (D/DBPR) and the Interim Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule (ESWTR). Both the latter two have provisions to limit the formation of disinfection by-products (DBP) by controlling reactivity and removal of DOM or both. Brief regulatory review of these …

Anger expression and blood pressure : the influence of self- consciousness
… pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), using hierarchical multiple regression analyses of sets. Although the variables collectively explained a significant amount of variance in DBP and SBP for both sexes, few had significant direct and total effects on DBP and SBP, and none had …

The Occurrence and Control of Disinfection By-Products (DBPs) in Two Water Treatment Plants Utilizing the Same Source
<p>The influence of disinfection by-products (DBPs) on the operation and design of water treatment plants has been increasing since the early studies by Rook on trihalomethanes (THMs) (Stevens, 1977). Work conducted in the 1980s identified the existence of nonvolatile halogenated organics (non-THM …

Development and Evaluation of Photocatalytic Linear Engineered Titanium Dioxide Nanomaterials for the Removal of Disinfection Byproduct Precursors from Drinking Water
… their ability to remove disinfection byproduct (DBP) precursors from two natural surface water matrices via adsorption and photocatalysis. DBPs, which form when naturally occurring organic precursor compounds interact with chemical disinfectants used in drinking water treatment, are suspected …

Removal of disinfection by-product precursors by activated carbon and MIEX(R)
… (TPI) NOM was fractionated and subsequent DBP formation from these fractions was studied. Several new adsorptive materials (greensand, carbon nanotubes, iron impregnated activated carbon) were tested for DBP reduction potential. Reductions by the materials were poor and therefore the …

A Comparison of Relaxation Techniques on Blood Pressure Reactivity and Recovery Assessing the Moderating Effect of Anger Coping Style
… effect for DB on diastolic blood pressure (DBP) during 10 minutes of recovery, <em>F</em> (1, 85) = 6.11, <em>p</em> < .05, such that DB demonstrated the greatest reduction in DBP in comparison to the SC and MR. Greater physiological responses to stress were not associated with higher …

Evaluating Blood Pressure Methods in Non-traumatic Intracerebral Hemorrhage: A Two-site Prospective Observational Study
… systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP and DBP) values to guide clinical practice. Given the widespread use of NIBPs for obtaining BP values in the acute care setting, we determine the agreement between SBP, DBP, and MAP measured by NIBP, manual cuff, and Arterial lines (A-lines) in patients …

Marcadores ecocardiograficos de ventrículo derecho como factores predictores de displasia broncopulmonar en recién nacidos prematuros de muy bajo peso
… comorbilidades como la displasia broncopulmonar (DBP) no ha disminuido de forma paralela a pesar de los grandes esfuerzos que la comunidad científica ha realizado para establecer algún tratamiento o estrategia postnatal eficaz para minimizar su impacto. La DBP es la enfermedad pulmonar crónica del …

Role of androgens in testicular development and dysgenesis
… cells. Evidence from the di (n‐butyl) phthalate (DBP)‐treated rat model for TDS suggests that reduced androgen action may play a role in testicular dysgenesis as in patients with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome (CAIS; ‘testicular feminization’), in whom focal areas of testicular …

Mean Arterial Pressure in Acute Ischemic Stroke Study
… in relation to SBP and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in patients with AIS, which is now exclusively measured with NIBP devices, is critical for safe and effective alteplase management. Study Aims. To understand agreement between SBP, DBP, and MAP measured by NIBP and measured manually in …

Multivariate Analysis of Disinfection By-products Formation in Drinking Water Distribution Systems
… decay and unintended disinfection by-product (DBP) formations, which are associated with increased adverse health outcomes. To improve drinking water quality, in-depth understandings of disinfectant stability are required. A systematic literature review was undertaken to investigate …

Age differences on the pattern of blood pressure response to isometric exercise in normotensive males.
… blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) responses were recorded at every 5 seconds for the 20%, 40%, and 60% MVC, and at every 2 seconds during the MVC test using a Finapres BP monitor. Results indicated that without blood occlusion …

Drinking water disinfection by-products: toxicological impacts and biological mechanisms induced by individual compounds or as complex mixtures
… of drinking water disinfection by-products (DBPs). Many DBPs are mutagenic, cytotoxic, genotoxic, carcinogenic, or teratogenic. Studies on the molecular mechanisms of toxic effects induced by DBPs, and the overall toxicity of DBP complex mixtures are limited. The objectives of this …
