• Keeping track to selenium metabolism
  

  Spanish and Danish researchers have developed a method for the in vivo study of the unknown metabolism of selenium, an essential element for living beings. The technique can help clarify whether or not it possesses the anti-tumour properties that have been attributed to it and yet have not been veri more

• Genetic regulation of metabolomic biomarkers - paths to cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes

  In a study to the genetic variance of human metabolism, researchers have identified thirty one regions of the genome that were associated with levels of circulating metabolites, i.e., small molecules that take part in various chemical reactions of human body. Many of the studied metabolites are biom more

• Illinois researchers use pyrosequencing to study canine intestinal bacteria

  A dog's indiscriminate taste is not always a positive trait. In fact, it often leads to gastrointestinal infections and consequent ailments such as diarrhea and vomiting that come from eating spoiled food. Others develop gastrointestinal diseases such as inflammatory bowel diseases that are not dire more

• Detection of NADH and NADPH with the Omega's High Speed, Full UV/Vis Absorbance Spectrometer
  

  Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+), reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+) and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) have been known to play vital roles in energy metabolism, antioxidation, and reductive biosynthesis. In recent years, these co-factors have been shown to be involved in other physiological functions as well, including aging, oxidative stress, intracellular calcium homeostasis, ROS production, cell death and gene expression. more
