Tashkin et al measured FEV1 serially in 255 habitual male and female smokers of marijuana and/or tobacco and nonsmokers of either substance on up to seven occasions at intervals of $ 1 year over a total period of up to 8 years. Random effects models were used in men and women separately to estimate mean rates […]

Functional annotation clustering in DAVID was used to minimize redundancy in the GO terms
As an extension of our previous work, the objective of the present study is to employ a toxicogenomics approach to compare and contrast the molecular pathways that are perturbed by MSC and TSC. However, subtle differences in gene expression provide insight into mechanisms underlying the observed differences in toxicities.A reference design with arrays as blocks of […]
Hemp oil contains high contents of unsaturated fatty acids
They promote extraction by breaking down the cell walls of the structures containing the oils and hence can also lead to the extraction of essential nutraceutical and antioxidant compounds with lesser degenerative effects on the cells.Ultrasound assisted extraction of hemp seed oils was performed by Lin and his group as well as and Esmaeilzadeh Kenari […]
The grafting with BTCA was carried out in the laboratory using a previously published procedure
The variations in the metabolic composition of the aqueous extracts of leaves and stems were investigated by performing an OPLS-DA.A clear separation between the two classes of samples along the first two components was obtained and the analysis of the Splot allowed for the detection of the most significant x-variables and,thus,the metabolites contributing to such clustering.Specifically,the buckets […]
The TBA value of all treatments increased gradually up to the end of the storage time
A similar experiment was performed with THC,this time only evaluating the FBBB stability at refrigerated temperatures.The characteristic red color indicative of the presence of THC did form; however,like the hemp,the color was duller than when performing the usual procedure.Finally,FBBB was preloaded onto PSPME substrates and left in refrigerated temperatures for a week and were then […]
It confirms that there was indeed a direct effect of hemp fabric on the Izod impact energy of the composites
Considering the average lengths before and after extrusion-injection molding , a reduction of about 2 times in the case of HF, 2.5 times for HF and 4 times for HF was observed. It follows that the reduction of fiber length was greater for longer initial fibers, similar to the results on simple PP/HF composites. Moreover, their […]
The values of initial adsorption rate and desorption constant varied in function of the copper concentration
Values of ki and correlation coefficients are listed in Table 3,from which it can be seen that the kinetics of copper adsorption on the SHI-W and SHI-C samples followed this model with R2 values higher than 0.95,indicating that intraparticle diffusion was involved in the adsorption process.For these samples,it seems that physisorption played the main role in […]
Selection for genetically stable cultivars with larger seeds will be important for increasing hemp grain yields
The gel point was taken as the time when the sol did not show any movement on turning the container upside down.For analysis of the binder,the left-over sol contaminated with leached out hemp shiv extractives was aged in a container until the gel point was reached and the specimen was termed the “binding matrix”.A schematic illustration […]
The accumulated results reveal the antioxidant potential of the oil
Based on these studies, it can be concluded that the extract on the strips actually sealed the first immune barriers and limited the penetration of pathogenic factors through these barriers; therefore, the body had no need to respond to the appearance of foreign proteins by producing appropriate enzymes. In the case of the extract in […]
