Complex influence of structural characteristics of low-methoxyl pectins on rheological properties of semi-solid Ca-gels.

The semi-solid Ca-gels were prepared from low-methoxyl pectins (methoxylation degree DM 4-36 %) of Oberna behen, Potamogeton natans, Tanacetum vulgare, Comarum palustre, Bergenia crassifolia, and Heracleum sosnowskyi. Pectins are characterized by Mw of 77-556 kDa and different content of HG and RG-I. The gels were prepared by addition of Ca ions at varying stoichiometric ratios, R = 2 × [Ca]/[COO], of 0.

Biodiversity of aquatic organisms in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam.

Background: The Mekong River is the 10 largest river in the world. It is recognised as the most productive river in Southeast Asia and economically essential to the region, with an estimated 60-65 million people living in the lower Mekong Basin. The Mekong Delta within Vietnam is considered a highly vulnerable ecosystem under threat from increasing anthropogenic pressure, such as dam construction and, as a consequence, the Delta is sinking and altering the natural hydrological cycle.

Pectic polysaccharides of black radish taproots: Extraction, structural characterization.

The mixtures of starch and pectin were isolated by sequential extraction of the pulp and peel of black radish taproots Raphanus sativus L. with cold, hot and acidified water, solutions of ammonium oxalate, sodium carbonate and sodium hydroxide. The polysaccharide fractions obtained with ammonium oxalate solutions from the pulp and peel of the taproots gave the highest yields.

Properties of cell wall polysaccharides of raw nectarine fruits after treatment under conditions that modulate gastric digestion.

The results of the study of the physicochemical properties of the high-molecular-weight soluble and insoluble components of nectarine cell walls obtained by fruit treatment under conditions that modulate of gastric digestion are presented. Homogenized nectarine fruits were sequentially treated by natural saliva and simulated gastric fluid (SGF) at pH 1.8 and 3.

[Role of health resort factors in the treatment of delayed puberty in teenage girls].

Unlabelled: Both treatment and effective rehabilitation play an important role in preserving the reproductive health of the girl, the future mother. Along with the search for new drug therapies for various gynecological pathologies, it is important to use physical and natural factors that are natural stimuli for the patient's body.

Aim: To examine the effect of health resort factors and methods of physiotherapy on the general condition and hormonal status of girls with delayed sexual development.
