CHEMICAL COMPOSITION AND LIPOXYGENASE ACTIVITY OF SOYBEAN (GLYCINE MAX L. MERRILL.) GENOTYPES, SPECIFIC FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION, WITH DIFFERENT TEGUMENT COLOURS

Chemical composition and lipoxygenase activity of soybean (Glycine max L. Merrill.) genotypes, specific for human consumption, with different tegument colours

Abstract Recently, in Brazil, coloured-tegument soybean cultivars have been developed, such as those with brown and black teguments.Soybeans with black teguments have been widely used for decades due to their health benefits and their use in oriental folk medicine as a result of the presence of phytochemicals.They have been recognized as health-pro

Lung Recruitment Maneuvers Assessment by Bedside Lung Ultrasound in Pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

The use of Trim Kit recruitment maneuvers (RMs) is suggested to improve severe oxygenation failure in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).Lung ultrasound (LUS) is a non-invasive, safe, and easily repeatable tool.It could be used to monitor the lung recruitment process in real-time.This paper aims to evaluate bedside LUS for ass
