ScienceIndex.com is a Web 2.0 sciences social network
\n established in 1998 to index the very latest news, headlines,
\n references and resources from science journals, books and
\n websites worldwide. The site covers news in all fields
\n of biology, business, chemistry, engineering, geography, health,
\n mathematics and society. ScienceIndex.com currently contains
\n over 1.3 million stories distributed among 75 categories. Over
\n 75,100 users monitor nearly 8,200 journals covering the broad
\n spectrum of sciences. They share circa 2,500 new articles every
\n day. Since new science content is discovered in real-time, the
\n delay between original publication and appearance at
\n ScienceIndex.com is no more than two days.<\/p>\n
\n ScienceIndex.com's Biology Sciences Category covers
\n life and living organisms,
\n including their structure, function, growth, origin, evolution,
\n and distribution. Besides Anatomy and Biotechnology, its
\n ten subsections include Genetics, Microbiology, Ecology,
\n Environment, Agriculture, Forestry, Physiology and Zoology.
\n This category currently contains 77,742 stories partly derived
\n from 400 science journals publishing in these two disciplines.\n <\/p>\n
\n ScienceIndex.com's Anatomy
\n Sciences Category deals with the shape and structure of
\n organisms and their parts. It currently contains over 1,000
\n articles partly deriving from over 10 scientific anatomy
\n journals. One of the latest additions shows that the relationship between shear
\n rate and flow-mediated dilation (FMD) is altered by acute
\n exercise. The aims of this study were to compare brachial
\n artery endothelial function at rest and post-exercise in and to
\n compare the data expressed as a percent change and normalized
\n to shear rate. These aims are based on the fact that
\n endothelial function is a predictor of cardiovascular health
\n and is improved with exercise training, however, it is not
\n clear how exercise acutely affects endothelial function. Results of this
\n study show a weak relationship in flow-mediated dilation and
\n shear rate after exercise. These data suggest that data
\n recorded following aerobic exercise should not be
\n normalized. Thus, endothelial function was attenuated after a
\n continuous 30-minute aerobic exercise session. Another recently
\n included article shows that sprint exercise enhances
\n skeletal muscle p70S6k phosphorylation and more so in women
\n than in men. Sprint exercise is characterized by repeated
\n sessions of brief intermittent exercise at a high relative
\n workload. However, little is known about the effect on mTOR
\n pathway, an important link in the regulation of muscle protein
\n synthesis. The authors tested the hypothesis that the
\n activation of mTOR signalling is more pronounced in women than
\n in men and conclude that repeated 30 seconds all-out bouts of
\n sprint exercise separated by 20 minutes of rest increases
\n Akt\/mTOR signalling in skeletal muscle. They also measured that
\n downstream signaling of mTOR was stronger in women than in men
\n after sprint exercise indicated by the increased
\n phosphorylation of p70S6k.\n <\/p>\n
\n ScienceIndex.com's Biotechnology Sciences Category
\n covers the utilization of bacteria, yeasts and other biological
\n substances for industrial and manufacturing processes. It
\n currently contains over 5,200 articles partly deriving from
\n over 25 scientific biotechnology journals. One recent article
\n in this category covers biotransformation of
\n ginsenosides Re and Rg1 into ginsenosides Rg2 and Rh1 by
\n recombinant ?-glucosidase. Ginsenosides Re and Rg1 were
\n transformed by recombinant ?-glucosidase (Bgp1) to ginsenosides
\n Rg2 and Rh1. Using Bgp1 enzyme, almost all initial ginsenosides
\n Re and Rg1 were converted completely to ginsenosides Rg2 and
\n Rh. This is the first report of the conversion of ginsenoside
\n Re to ginsenoside Rg2 and ginsenoside Rg1 to ginsenoside Rh1
\n using the recombinant ?-glucosidase. Another recently included
\n article in this category characterizes d-lactate
\n dehydrogenase from Pediococcus acidilactici that converts
\n phenylpyruvic acid into phenyllactic acid. The authors
\n cloned the gene coding for d-lactate dehydrogenase (d-LDH) from
\n Pediococcus acidilactici DSM 20284 and expressed it in E. coli.
\n The recombinant enzyme was purified by nickel-affinity
\n chromatography. It converted phenylpyruvic acid (PPA) to
\n 3-phenyllactic acid maximally at 30\u00b0C and pH 5.5 with a
\n specific activity of 140 and 422 U\/mg for PPA and pyruvate.\n <\/p>\n
\n ScienceIndex.com's content is divided into \"Popular\" and
\n \"Upcoming\" sections. While content in the \"Upcoming\"
\n section is rarely older than a few minutes, the \"Popular\"
\n section contains approved articles approved between 20 to 60
\n minutes after submission by users. All articles can easily be
\n bookmarked with the AddThis Sharing tools which include the
\n Google+1 button. The website provides an advanced search
\n feature which suggests up to ten closely related articles for a
\n search and also for a selected story. The latter list is sorted
\n primarily by relevancy and secondarily by publishing date. This
\n helps users compiling lists of related references for
\n literature retrieval purposes.\n <\/p>\n
\n Other features include a ScienceIndex.com \"Life Traffic Feed\"
\n which is helpful in watching the online traffic in real-time
\n and a \"Top Content\" sidebar which includes the most actively
\n read and shared articles available on the site. The included
\n Google Translate gadget supports translating ScienceIndex.com's
\n content into over fifty languages.\n <\/p>\n
\n ScienceIndex.com offers users to stay updated with the latest
\n inclusions and news in their favorite science topics by
\n subscribing to one or more of the seventy-five RSS feeds which
\n are available for every category. ScienceIndex.com also
\n maintains the new Twitter account @ScienceIndex_ for improving
\n public exposure and inform their users about the latest
\n developments in the sciences.\n <\/p>\n
