In this article we report the effects of low and high fat diets on the arterial thrombosis tendency in rats. The animal system used was the aorta loop model, in which we compared the effect of saturated (hardened coconut oil, HCO) and unsaturated (sunflower seed oil, SSO; corn oil, CO) fatty acids on the arterial thrombosis tendency at high fat intake (50 energy%, 45 energy% of which was either HCO, SSO, or CO). Under these conditions both SSO and CO had a beneficial effect (relative to HCO) on the arterial thrombosis tendency. In a subsequent study we compared these high fat diets with a low fat diet (5 energy%). As compared with the low fat diet, only CO significantly decreased the thrombosis risk. Serum vitamin K and triglycerides had decreased substantially after the CO diet, and to a much lesser extent after the SSO diet.It is concluded that corn oil may have a mildly anticoagulant effect, the potential benefit of which is discussed. 相似文献

Kaolin is widely used in diagnostic virology, mainly to remove serum lipoproteins that may interfere with antibody assaying. The binding kinetics of antibody to kaolin at different pH values and with varying amounts of kaolin indicated a uniform and characteristic binding pattern for IgG with maximum adsorption at pH 5 and no adsorption at pH above 9. To avoid loss of IgG antibody adsorption with kaolin should therefore be performed at pH greater than or equal to 9. The amount adsorbed increased with the amount of kaolin used. The IgM pattern was less uniform with maximum adsorption of total IgM at about 7.0, the amount adsorbed being highly dependent on kaolin concentration. Serum lipoproteins were rapidly and strongly adsorbed independent of pH from 7 to 11 and independent of the lipoprotein content of the serum. The amount of kaolin used was, however, critical. 相似文献

Effects of autumn kaolin treatments on the rosy apple aphid, Dysaphis plantaginea (Pass.) and possible modes of action 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Abstract: Autumn applications of the repellent processed-kaolin particle film (Surround® WP) might be an alternative to the insecticides commonly used in spring to control the rosy apple aphid, Dysaphis plantaginea (Pass.) (Hom., Aphididae). To assess the mode of action and the impact of kaolin on autumn forms of D. plantaginea , trials were conducted in field cages and in open-fields in autumn 2003. Choice and no-choice experiments in field cages showed that winged aphids landed in significantly lower numbers and gave birth to significantly fewer females on kaolin-treated branches compared with the untreated control. In a first open-field trial, single applications at 10 different dates and with two different concentrations of kaolin were conducted after harvest to assess the influence of the kaolin concentration on the autumn forms of D. plantaginea . No differences were found between the different concentrations and spraying dates. In a second open-field trial, single and multiple applications of kaolin were tested at different dates after harvest. Repeated applications of kaolin significantly reduced females in autumn and fundatrices in spring, whereas single kaolin treatments had no significant effect on D. plantaginea . None of the kaolin treatments reduced aphids below the economic threshold. In conclusion, kaolin showed promising results to control autumn forms of D. plantaginea. However, with a more detailed forecasting model for the autumnal flight of this aphid, treatments could be conducted more precisely and more effectively, especially in years with exceptional climatic conditions, such as in 2003. 相似文献

Large populations of microorganisms were shown to have little or no effect on the physical properties of kaolin slurries. The physical properties that were measured were brightness, soluble salts, pH, and viscosity. This was found to be the case when autoclaved samples of kaolin slurries were inoculated with strains of Pseudomonas putida, an organism frequently encountered in kaolin slurries, and incubated for five weeks; or, when uninoculated samples of kaolin slurries, and incubated for five weeks; or, when uninoculated samples of kaolin slurries were incubated for as long as three months to allow the naturally occurring contaminating organisms to grow. In each case, from 105 to over 107 colony forming units ml−1 developed. In several instances, however, the viscosity increased slightly but within acceptable limits.When kaolin slurries were inoculated with massive numbers of microorganisms in their own spent media, the viscosity increased significantly over a period of five weeks in some, but not all, cases. Brightness, pH and soluble salts content, however, did not change. It was probable that microbial slime material in the spent media plus additional slime material formed owing to the introduction of nutrients from the spent media into the kaolin slurries contributed to the increase in viscosity. The increase in viscosity took place sufficiently slowly, however, that under normal, practical working circumstances the kaolin slurries would have been used before the increase in viscosity became apparent. Moreover, the numbers of microorganisms used in these experiments were more than an order of magnitude greater than that which would develop naturally in kaolin slurries not treated with preservatives.It was concluded from these experiments that under normal conditions high numbers of microorganisms would have little or no effect on the physical properties of kaolin. 相似文献

The adsorption capacity of urinary FSH has been studied comparatively with kaolin and montmorillonite, a new type of bentonite, never used before in gonadotrophin adsorption. To measure adsorption capacity, two different assay methods were used: bioassay (for biological activity of the kaolin and montmorillonite extracts) and radioimmunoassay (RIA) for the immunological activity of FSH in both extracts. From the present results a biological activity increase was observed in montmorillonite extracts, while no significant differences between immunological activity of FSH were found in either extract. These findings suggest that montmorillonite could replace kaolin in gonadotrophins extraction and purification methods. 相似文献

Kaolin-based particle film has been developed in the United States for use in agriculture as crop protectant. This work is aimed to determine the optimal kaolin concentration for use against Aphis gossypii, the most damaging sucking insect of cotton in Benin, West Africa. Following kaolin concentrations have been tested in four different experiments: 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6% and 8%. The effect of kaolin is tested by recording the population dynamics of A. gossypii on cotton after spraying. Results showed that the solution containing 5% of kaolin has significantly reduced aphids' number. This concentration corresponds to a maximum of 18 kg of kaolin per hectare for the entire season when ultra low volume sprayer is used. Higher kaolin concentrations have left a large deposit of kaolin particle on cotton leaves thus handicapping chlorophyll synthesis and the proper growth and development of the plants. To obtain encouraging results, an adequate application method that provides a full and continuous coverage of the plants with kaolin particle film should be used. We suggest conducting trials on this product in practical cotton production conditions in West Africa to assess its potentiality as integrated pest management (IPM) component. 相似文献

After kaolin treatment of fetal rabbit serum, 7S antibody titers were reduced more than 19S titers. This reduction was less when the kaolin treatment was performed at pH 9.0 than when it was performed at pH 7.3. A modification of the kaolin treatment of sera for use in the hemagglutination-inhibiting antibody titration, in which the hemagglutination reaction is performed at a neutral pH, is recommended. The advantage of the modified method is that adsorption of immunoglobulins to kaolin is minimized when serum is treated at a lower dilution with pH 9.0 kaolin, followed by reduction of the pH of the supernatant fluid to neutrality with a "serum adjusting diluent." When the serum was diluted with physiological saline before kaolin treatment, a great decrease in serum immunoglobulin concentrations occurred. This decrease was found to be less in the modified kaolin treatment than in the conventional pH 7.3 kaolin treatment. 相似文献

Abstract: Application of processed kaolin particle film (Surround® WP; Engelhard Corporation, Iselin, NJ, USA) repels insects without lethal effects; hence side effects on beneficial arthropods are low. Processed kaolin may be an alternative to broad-spectrum insecticides used against European pear sucker, Cacopsylla pyri (L.), in organic and conventional pear production. A small-plot field trial was conducted in spring 2003 to assess this hypothesis. Multiple applications of processed kaolin during the first flying period of C. pyri significantly reduced the number of nymphs compared to the untreated control. Processed kaolin protected pear trees at least as good as the standard organic insecticide rotenone. Since the effects on the summer population could not be assessed in this small-plot trial due to the high mobility of the adult C. pyri , a large-plot trial was conducted in 2004. Thereby, the processed kaolin showed a very high efficacy and the population of C. pyri was kept under a damaging level over the whole season. At the end of June the population density of C. pyri in the processed kaolin treated area was lower than in the IPM treated plot. In conclusion, kaolin shows promise as an alternative control for C. pyri in organic and IPM orchards. 相似文献

The effects of the addition of powered particles of kaolin to nitrifying activated sludge systems were studied. Kaolin was added to a nitrifying activated sludge reactor, during the operational phase, to observe the effects of this clay on reactor performance. The results were compared to those obtained from a similar unit operated without kaolin. The settling properties of the sludges from both units were similar (sludge volume index (SVI) of 14.5 ml/g VSS; zone settling velocity (ZSV) of 7.5 m/h), but the specific nitrifying activities of ammonia and nitrite oxidizing processes were enhanced up to 75% and 50%, respectively, when kaolin was added. The mechanism of action of kaolin was not clear. Additional ammonia, nitrite and nitrate adsorption tests showed that these compounds were not adsorbed by kaolin. This demonstrated that no beneficial effect was caused by adsorption of either substrates or products. Short-term activity tests also showed that the stimulating effects of kaolin on specific activity were not immediate. The effects of kaolin when nitrifying units were operated under unfavorable conditions were also evaluated: In a second set of experiments, a nitrifying unit was operated with low levels of dissolved oxygen (DO), with and without kaolin. The presence of kaolin exerted practically no effect on ammonia oxidation but nitrite oxidation slightly diminished. In a third set of experiments, a nitrifying unit was subjected to pH shocks (9, 10 and 11) over 3 h with pH then restored to 7.8. A pH shock of 11 caused a decrease of 60% in nitrifying activity for 12 days. When kaolin was added to this unit the efficiency of the system was completely restored in 4 days. Therefore, kaolin might be useful to restore damaged units. 相似文献

Opioids are frequently used analgesics, and emesis is a common opioid-induced adverse effect. Methylnaltrexone, a peripheral opioid antagonist, has the potential to block the undesired effects of opioids that are mediated by peripheral receptors while sparing the analgesic effect. We used a rat model of simulated emesis or pica to study if methylnaltrexone decreases morphine induced-kaolin consumption. We observed that after morphine administration, kaolin intake increased significantly compared to intake in the vehicle group, and the increase could be attenuated by ondansetron administration. Methylnaltrexone dose-dependently reduced kaolin ingestion induced by morphine. Morphine and methylnaltrexone did not significantly affect food intake and body weight in the experimental animals. Our data suggest that methylnaltrexone has therapeutic value in treating opioid-induced nausea and vomiting. 相似文献

Physiological effects of kaolin applications in well-irrigated and water-stressed walnut and almond trees 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Kaolin applications have been used to mitigate the negative effects of water and heat stress on plant physiology and productivity with variable results, ranging from increased to decreased yields and photosynthetic rates. The mechanisms of action of kaolin applications are not clear: although the increased albedo reduces leaf temperature and the consequent heat stress, it also reduces the light available for photosynthesis, possibly offsetting benefits of lower temperature. The objective of this study was to investigate which of these effects are prevalent and under which conditions. METHODS: A 6% kaolin suspension was applied on well-irrigated and water-stressed walnut (Juglans regia) and almond (Prunus dulcis) trees. Water status (i.e. stem water potential, psi(s)), gas exchange (i.e. light-saturated CO2 assimilation rate, Amax; stomatal conductance, g(s)), leaf temperature (T(l)) and physiological relationships in treated and control trees were then measured and compared. KEY RESULTS: In both species, kaolin did not affect the daily course of psi(s) whereas it reduced Amax by 1-4 micromol CO2 m(-2) s(-1) throughout the day in all combinations of species and irrigation treatments. Kaolin did not reduce g(s) in any situation. Consequently, intercellular CO2 concentration (C(i)) was always greater in treated trees than in controls, suggesting that the reduction of Amax with kaolin was not due to stomatal limitations. Kaolin reduced leaf temperature (T(l)) by about 1-3 degrees C and leaf-to-air vapour pressure difference (VPD(l)) by about 0.1-0.7 kPa. Amax was lower at all values of g(s), T(l) and VPD(l) in kaolin-treated trees. Kaolin affected the photosynthetic response to the photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) in almond leaves: kaolin-coated leaves had similar dark respiration rates and light-saturated photosynthesis, but a higher light compensation point and lower apparent quantum yield, while the photosynthetic light-response curve saturated at higher PAR. When these parameters were used to model the photosynthetic response curve to PAR, it was estimated that the kaolin film allowed 63% of the incident PAR to reach the leaf. CONCLUSIONS: The main effect of kaolin application was the reduction, albeit minor, of photosynthesis, which appeared to be related to the shading of the leaves. The reduction in T(l) and VPD(l) with kaolin did not suffice to mitigate the adverse effects of heat and water stress on Amax. 相似文献

The mechanisms by which kaolin, a clay particle film formulation, affects the fitness and behavior of larvae of obliquebanded leafroller, Choristoneura rosaceana (Harris), were investigated. Feeding experiments tested kaolin as a physical barrier versus a physiological toxin for larvae that consumed kaolin applied either to apple (Malus spp.) leaves or mixed in artificial diet. Behavioral experiments tested the effects of kaolin applied to apple leaves on neonate dispersal and leaf rolling by third and fourth instars. When larvae fed on apple leaves sprayed with kaolin, mortality and time to pupation of larvae increased significantly, whereas pupal mass significantly decreased. When larvae consumed kaolin mixed into an artificial diet, however, the effects on mortality, pupation time, and pupal mass were negligible. There may be minor physiological effects from consumption because male time to pupation was delayed for larvae fed diets containing the highest concentration of kaolin. In behavioral experiments, neonate larvae dispersed more quickly off plants covered with kaolin than control plants, and kaolin delayed the construction of leaf shelters by third and fourth instars. We showed that the effects of kaolin on C. rosaceana larvae are primarily physical, causing changes in dispersal and rolling behaviors and as a physical barrier to feeding. 相似文献

Although recent research has demonstrated that clays provide satisfactory control of some agricultural insect pests, the effect of clays on gall wasps that damage forest trees has not been previously reported. The aim of the current study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the clay kaolin in the laboratory and in the field in reducing the damage caused by the eulophid Ophelimus maskelli (Ashmead) on seedlings of eucalyptus (Eucalyptus L'Hér.) species. In the laboratory, kaolin + wetting agent significantly reduced the percentage of infested leaves and the number of galls per leaf. In the nursery, gall number per leaf was not correlated with leaf area with kaolin + wetting agent but was related to leaf area for all other treatments (wetting agent alone, imidacloprid, and untreated control). In the nursery, gall number per leaf was lower with kaolin + wetting agent and with imidacloprid than with the other two treatments. Overall, kaolin effectively reduced eulophid infestations, and its effect was more persistent than that of imidacloprid. Although application of kaolin might not be feasible on large forested areas, kaolin could represent a valuable control method in nurseries, where the repeated application with more toxic chemicals can result in high concentrations of residual pesticides in the soil. 相似文献

Two procedures have been used for measuring antibody titres to bovine herpes virus 1 (BHV1): the serum neutralization (SN) test and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). One hundred and thirty-two sera selected for their low SN titres were tested both unadsorbed and after adsorption with kaolin to determine the effect of kaolin on the titres. With ELISA, the titres of unadsorbed and kaolin adsorbed were not significantly different but with the SN test many treated sera, originally with weak positive titres, became negative after kaolin adsorption. Thus, if the ELISA results are specific for BHV1 antibody then the SN test findings suggest that treatment of sera with kaolin, rather than removing a viral inhibitor, removes a substance from the serum which potentiates SN antibody. This in turn indicates that low SN titres (reciprocal of titre less than or equal to 4, for instance) are probably specific for BHV1 SN antibody whether or not they are abolished by kaolin treatment of the serum. 相似文献

Stent thrombosis is a major complication of coronary stent and scaffold intervention. While often unanticipated and lethal, its incidence is low making mechanistic examination difficult through clinical investigation alone. Thus, throughout the technological advancement of these devices, experimental models have been indispensable in furthering our understanding of device safety and efficacy. As we refine model systems to gain deeper insight into adverse events, it is equally important that we continue to refine our measurement methods. We used digital signal processing in an established flow loop model to investigate local flow effects due to geometric stent features and ultimately its relationship to thrombus formation. A new metric of clot distribution on each microCT slice termed normalized clot ratio was defined to quantify this distribution. Three under expanded coronary bare-metal stents were run in a flow loop model to induce clotting. Samples were then scanned in a MicroCT machine and digital signal processing methods applied to analyze geometric stent conformation and spatial clot formation. Results indicated that geometric stent features play a significant role in clotting patterns, specifically at a frequency of 0.6225 Hz corresponding to a geometric distance of 1.606 mm. The magnitude-squared coherence between geometric features and clot distribution was greater than 0.4 in all samples. In stents with poor wall apposition, ranging from 0.27 mm to 0.64 mm maximum malapposition (model of real-world heterogeneity), clots were found to have formed in between stent struts rather than directly adjacent to struts. This early work shows how the combination of tools in the areas of image processing and signal analysis can advance the resolution at which we are able to define thrombotic mechanisms in in vitro models, and ultimately, gain further insight into clinical performance. 相似文献
