Characteristics of boron uptake in roots of sunflower by a putative boron transporter
The mechanisms of boron (B) uptake in roots of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) plants were studied. To characterize the high affinity B uptake system, which is induced by low B supply, plants were pre-cultured w...

Characterization of the boron compartmentation in roots of sunflower using two independent approaches
The intracellular compartmentation of boron (B) in roots of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) plants pre-cultured with µmol 1−1 B (high B) or 1 µmol 1−1 B (low B) was studied using two independent approaches. In t...

Effectiveness and Tolerability of the α-Glucosidase Inhibitor Acarbose in NIDDM Patients with Elevated Liver Enzyme Activity
Acarbose is a glucosidase inhibitor which exerts its activities within the gastrointestinal tract on brush-border digestion and absorption of sucrose and maltose. Only 1%–2% of the drug is absorbed from the in...
