Listener Sabi said I was supposed to join the Mass today.” At the questioning the elder man tensed. “Never mind,” she snapped, “but you’ll have to answer my questions one day. You yip and yap one huge monologue, but you never say anything useful. Maybe you should stop reading all those old books and actually do something with yourself. Tend to your wife sometime, yeah? Sally is not getting any younger! She’s already seventeen, you…

Km and Vmax determination of glucocerebrosidase towards p-NPG The Michaelis constant (Km) is a measure of the affinity of the enzyme towards the substrate, with smaller values representing greater affinity. Km and the maximum rate (Vmax) of leukocyte GCase were obtained through the Lineweaver-Burk plot (Figure 4) with artificial substrate p-NPG in concentrations from 0.71 mM to2.50 mM. Km and Vmax values for leukocyte GCase using p-NPG as substrate was found to be 12.6 mM and 333 U/mg…

To determine optimal pH value for the hydrolysis of p-NPG by leukocyte GCase, we examined effects of variable pH (4.0-5.5) at a constant substrate concentration (5mM). Figure 1 shows the pH activity curves of leukocyte GCase assayed in the presence and absence of 6 mg per ml Sodium taurocholate. In the absence of the pure sodium taurocholate, the activity in the range of pH 4.0-4.8 was considerably lower. However, in the presence of pure Sodium taurocholate, leukocyte GCase was optimally active…

China division can skip international division to report directly to headquarters, which make the division have strong autonomy with localization. Decentralization helps local managers of Haagen-Dazs China gain effective local knowledge making accurate and sensible decisions. Regarding the horizontal differentiation, since Haagen-Dazs focus on promotion of the product, which means its degree of diversification is relative low and with the fact that it calls for a high degree of local…

3.5. Factors influencing smear microscopy3.5.1. Gender Difference Although the literature on Indian women and TB is scanty, several factors such as self-image, status in family and society, access to resources, and social stigma clearly have different effects on health-seeking behavior for TB among women and men. TB affects women mainly in their economically and reproductively active years, and the impact of the disease is also strongly felt by their children and families166. Chapter III The…
