Since the ratification of the Kyoto Protocol more and more emphasis is laid on reducing greenhouse gas emissions.The article analyses the feasibility of introducing electric vehicles into traffic rather than vehicles with internal combustion engines.From standpoint of emission sources use of electricity for transport is analysed with stress on priv
Male-like sexual behavior of female mouse lacking fucose mutarotase
Abstract Background Mutarotases are recently characterized family of enzymes that are involved in the anomeric conversions of monosaccharides.The mammalian fucose mutarotase (FucM) was reported in cultured cells to facilitate fucose utilization and incorporation into protein by glycosylation.However, the role of this enzyme in animal has not been e
Development of Non-Targeted Mass Spectrometry Method for Distinguishing Spelt and Wheat
Food fraud, even when not in the news, is ubiquitous and demands the development of innovative strategies to combat it.A new non-targeted method (NTM) for distinguishing spelt and wheat is described, which aids in food fraud detection and authenticity testing.A highly resolved fingerprint in the form of spectra is obtained for several cultivars of
Acute limb ischemia due to Candida tropicalis mitral valve endocarditis
Fungal endocarditis is a very rare entity Lanyard and is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates.We report a 68-year-old man with fungal valvular endocarditis over the mitral valve with a large vegetation located over the anterior leaflet, presenting initially as acute limb ischemia of the left lower limb.Immediate embolectomy was perfor
