Interplay of physical mechanisms and biofilm processes: review of microfluidic methods
Even for professional athletes these are usually season-ending injuries, and in some cases career-ending injuries
Both have a place, but they are not interchangeable, and neither is a substitute for addressing an underlying medical cause when one exists
Further, this condition may be associated with a plasma concentration ratio of acylcarnitine/levocarnitine greater than 0.4 or abnormally elevated concentrations of acylcarnitine in the urine
Its defining structural feature is the gamma-glutamyl linkage: the glutamate residue is joined through its side-chain carboxyl rather than the usual alpha-peptide bond, which makes the molecule resistant to most intracellular peptidases and means it is cleaved almost exclusively by gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase at the outer cell surface (Zhang, Forman and Choi, Methods in Enzymology, 2005)
