Article Synopsis
- In psychology, people often think of happiness and subjective well-being as the same thing, but this text argues they are different.
- It suggests that cultures that focus a lot on being super happy (especially in Western countries) might be influenced by their nicer living environments.
- Lastly, the text warns that trying to make everyone happy the same way can be tricky because it doesn't work for all cultures equally.
Efficacy of nisin and/or natamycin to improve the shelf-life of Galotyri cheese.
Food Microbiol
December 2013
The present study evaluated the use of nisin, natamycin and/or their combination as antimicrobial treatments to improve the shelf-life of Galotyri cheese. Samples were treated with nisin [N1 (100 IU/g), N2 (200 IU/g)], natamycin [NA1 (0.01% w/w), NA2 (0.

Sarcoma cell lines were isolated from leiomyosarcoma tumors induced in Wistar rats by the subcutaneous (s.c) injection of 3,4-benzopyrene.

Electromagnetic resonance frequencies measurements and exposure of cells to static EMF were performed by a device called multi channel dynamic exciter 100 V1 (MCDE). The LSC were exposed to electromagnetic resonance radiofrequencies (ERF) between 10 kHz to 120 kHz, for 45 min.

Materials And Methods: 3,4-benzopyrene-induced carcinogenesis model using Wistar rats was used. Leiomyosarcoma cells from Wistar rats were used to study carvacrol antiproliferative activity in vitro.
