In this study, potential antifungal properties of a brown alga Fucus vesiculosus were evaluated.The algal extract was obtained with the use of supercritical fluid extraction (scCO2) at a temperature of 50 °C under a pressure of 300 bar.The aqueous solution of the extract at the concentration of 0.05%, 0.2%, 0.5% and 1.0% was studied against pa

As the essential tissue for sperm maturation and storage, the epididymis secretes a number of tissue-specific proteins to exert its functions.Among Vision Care these proteins, epididymal lipocalins have been intensively studied because of their epididymis-specific expression pattern and clustered genomic organization.In this study, rLcn13, a member

Partial discharge (PD) measurement of an insulation system is widely used as a diagnostic tool for the quality control of high voltage apparatuses.In ac, the conventional method of PD detection is well established.However, under square voltages such as those generated across power electronic converters, the conventional method cannot discriminate b
