Also, wakame contains higher level of vital minerals such as magnesium essential for calcium absorption due to its ability to stimulate the production of calcitonin, the hormone which helps increase calcium in the bones. Apart from that, wakame is a great source for natural vitamin D, which also helps enhance calcium absorption making it essential for bone health and muscle…

In vitro, in vivo and in silico drug-drug interaction study between Vildagliptin and Bisoprolol fumarate. ABSTRACT Objective: Present study was aimed to evaluate the in vitro, in vivo and in silico complexation nature and strength of complex which may be formed due to interaction between Vildagliptin and Bisoprolol fumarate. Methods: The interaction of Vildagliptin and Bisoprolol fumarate has been studied in aqueous systems at a fixed temperature (370C) at pH 1.0, 3.0 and 6.8 by using some…

During pregnancy, there is increased absorption of B₁₂ in the intestines to ensure maximum intake of B₁₂ available to [both] the mother and the infant. A deficiency of this vitamin is problematic because it is important for the synthesis of DNA and red blood cells, and also plays a role in the growth and maintenance of nerve cells. Vitamin B₁₂ also participates in the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the mitochondria, which is used for energy. Vitamin B₁₂ is stored in the liver and…

6. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION 6.1 SUMMARY The current study deals mainly with phytochemical and pharmacological investigation of traditionally used medicinal plant Enicostemma littorale Blume. A perusal of the literature revealed that only fragmental information was available on this plant species regarding cytoprotective potential and immunohistochemistry. In addition the exact molecular mechanism of action of this plant species active compound swertiamarin is unknown and remote. Hence this study…

rehearsal room doors to increase the acoustical volume of the rehearsal room. • Sound absorption panels could be applied to quiet the room. The panel should be at least 3 inches thick to be effective. • Heavy curtains should be applied. Velour curtains hung in front of a reflecting wall. Boomy bass heavy room solutions • Remove thin curtains and carpet and replace materials that produce an effective absorption across the room. • Apply absorptive panels that are 3 inches thick. The thicker the…

The human skeleton system is a highly dynamic organ made up of a total of 213 bones in adults . It is formed by a mineralized connective tissue and comprises two mainly cellular types: osteoblast-lineage cells, and osteoclast-lineage cells. The skeletal system exerts fundamental functions in the body, such as supporting and providing mechanical protection to soft tissues; storing several minerals (mainly calcium and phosphate), and releasing them in the blood stream when required; harboring the…

By adding diazoxide, which is an activator of the potassium channel, the membrane would depolarize, thereby increasing the absorption. The blockage of the mitochondrial KATP channel with the VU591 inhibitor would prevent the membrane from depolarizing. However, the addition of the FCCP uncoupler would cause an instant depolarization. Oligomycin is an antibiotic that acts by binding…

mass (Griffin). This is where calcium supplements could come into play. The purpose of calcium supplements is to balance out calcium absorption by making up for the calcium that is not obtained from food (Griffin). Calcium should primarily be acquired through food, but if a diet is lacking calcium, a supplement may be recommended by a physician. Proper calcium absorption can only take place with the assistance of nutrients, most importantly vitamins D and A (Ehrlich). Even if the right amount of…

The Alimentary canal or gastrointestinal tract is made up of all the organs which food passes through during digestion. Starting from the mouth, where saliva is produced protecting the teeth and chemically breaking down food molecules and teeth are used to mechanically chew food from larger molecules to smaller molecules. Food is then passed through the Pharynx. The Epiglottis in the Pharynx, is a flap of tissue that covers the trachea to prevent food from entering the lungs, thus directing…
