The convolutional neural network as a tool to classify electroencephalography data resulting from the consumption of juice sweetened with caloric or non-caloric sweeteners.

Sweetener type can influence sensory properties and consumer's acceptance and preference for low-calorie products. An ideal sweetener does not exist, and each sweetener must be used in situations to which it is best suited. Aspartame and sucralose can be good substitutes for sucrose in passion fruit juice.

Metabolite of tryptophan promoting changes in EEG signal and the oxidative status of the brain.

Tryptophan is an essential amino acid precursor of neurotransmitter serotonin and triptamine. During its metabolism, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) is generated; this substance presents both antioxidant and prooxidant effects in different biological systems in addition to hipoglicemic effects. To date, electroencephalography (EEG) has been used to evaluate the temporal effect of several substances in neurotransmission.

Quantifying electrode position effects in EEG data with Lempel-Ziv complexity.

Complexity measurement using Lempel and Ziv algorithm (LZ) has been used to analyze physiological data. This work shows that the Lempel and Ziv complexity measurement of EEG signals using wavelets transforms is independent of electrode position and dependent on cognitive tasks and brain activity. EEG database with 122 subjects from the public EEG dataset was used in this study.

Microbicidal action of indole-3-acetic acid combined with horseradish peroxidase on Prototheca zopfii from bovine mastitis.

We investigated the toxic effect of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) combined with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) on Prototheca zopfii from bovine mastitis. P. zopfii isolates were identified and characterized by morpho-physiological parameters; presences of P.

Effect of Prototheca zopfii on neutrophil function from bovine milk.

This study was carried to investigate neutrophil function in the presence of Prototheca zopfii. For this purpose, bovine milk neutrophils were incubated in the absence (control) of and presence of P. zopfii, and then they were examined hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) production, antioxidant enzyme activities, and phagocytic capacity.

Effect of indole-3-acetic acid administration by gavage and by subcutaneous injection on rat leukocytes.

This study was done to investigate the effect of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) administered subcutaneously and by gavage on neutrophil function and cytotoxicity in neutrophils and lymphocytes. A gavage administration resulted in an increase in phagocytic capacity in neutrophils in a dose depended manner for 1 mg, 2 mg, 18 mg, and 40 mg of IAA per kg of body mass, respectively, compared with the control. Similarly, subcutaneous administration of IAA at 2, 18, and 40 mg per kg of body mass promoted a significant rise in phagocytosis by neutrophils.

Influence of indole acetic acid on antioxidant levels and enzyme activities of glucose metabolism in rat liver.

Indole acetic acid (IAA) is an auxin and can be synthesized in animals. This compound is metabolized in vitro by peroxidase, producing reactive oxygen species. The toxic effect of indole acetic acid in leukocytes is associated with peroxidase activities and these processes have been implicated in activation of glucose and glutamine metabolism.

Effect of indole acetic acid administration on the neutrophil functions and oxidative stress from neutrophil, mesenteric lymph node and liver.

This study was done to investigate the effect of the in vivo administration of indole acetic acid (IAA) on the neutrophil function, the activities of antioxidants enzymes in neutrophils, the mesenteric lymph node and on the oxidative stress in liver and plasma. The animals received subcutaneous administration of IAA in a phosphate-buffered saline (the control group received only the phosphate-buffered saline). The other groups received IAA at concentrations of 1 mg (T1), 2 mg (T2) and 18 mg (T3) per kg of body mass per day.
