CHOLESTEROL LOWERING EFFECT OF A SOY DRINK ENRICHED WITH PLANT STEROLS IN A FRENCH POPULATION WITH MODERATE HYPERCHOLESTEROLEMIA

Cholesterol lowering effect of a soy drink enriched with plant sterols in a French population with moderate hypercholesterolemia

Abstract Background Plant sterols are an established non-pharmacological means to reduce total and LDL blood cholesterol concentrations and are therefore recommended for cholesterol management by worldwide-renown health care institutions.Their efficacy has been proven in many types of foods with the majority of trials conducted in spreads or dairy

Synthesizing polypropylene with percolation network catalyzed by inorganic nanoparticles-functionalized Ziegler-Natta catalyst

Polypropylene is one of the most widely used synthetic resins, which is mainly synthesized with Ziegler-Natta catalysts.In this paper, the functionalized Ziegler-Natta catalyst is applied to prepare high-performance polypropylene.A new way to synthesize functionalized Ziegler-Natta catalysts is to dope with inorganic nanoparticles.The MgCl2/TiCl4/B
