Water Kefir grain as a source of potent dextran producing lactic acid bacteria [PDF]
Water kefir is abeverage fermented by a microbial consortium captured in kefir grains. The kefir grains matrix is composed of polysaccharide, primarily dextran, whichis produced by members of the microbial consortium.

Characterization of dextransucrase from Leuconostoc mesenteroides T3, water kefir grains isolate [PDF]
The production of dextransucrase (DS) by Leuconostoc mesenteroides T3, novel isolate from water kefir grain, was studied and optimized. Bacterial supernatant reached activity of 3.1 U/ml when the culture was grown at 23 C and under static culture ...

The effect of the magnetically dead layer on the magnetization and the magnetic anisotropy of the dextran coated magnetite nanoparticles [PDF]
We present a study on the magnetic behavior of dextran-coated magnetite nanoparticles (DM NPs) with sizes between 3 and 19 nm, synthesized by hydrothermal-assisted co-precipitation method. The decrease of saturation magnetization ($M_s$) with decreasing particle size has been modeled by assuming the existence of a spin-disordered layer at the particle ...

Synthetic Integrin-Targeting Dextran-Fc Hybrids Efficiently Inhibit Tumor Proliferation In Vitro
Herein, we present the design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of novel integrin-targeting molecular hybrids combining RGD peptides and a potent cytotoxin presented on dextran polysaccharides. Based on an aglycosylated Fc as a centerpiece, endosomal-

Effect of infusion of hypertonic-hyperoncotic solution on cardiovascular function in surgery of the abdominal aorta during the perioperative period [PDF]
Introduction. When blood flow is decreased, as in prolonged hypovolaemia and hypotension, or in the course of transversal clamping of the aorta during aortic reconstruction, nutritive tissue perfusion can also fall below the critical level. Aim.

Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) have shown great potential in biomedicine due to their high intrinsic magnetization behaviour. These are small particles of magnetite or maghemite, and when coated, their surface oxidation is prevented,
