Effects of host switching on gypsy moth ( Lymantria dispar (L.)) under field conditions
(Springer-Verlag, 1994-03)
Effects of various single and two species diets on the performance of gypsy moth ( Lymantria dispar (L.)) were studied when this insect was reared from hatch to population on intact host trees in the field. The tree species ...
Predicting cleavability of peptide sequences by HIV protease via correlation-angle approach
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1993-06)
In designing HIV protease inhibitors as potential drugs for AIDS therapy, knowledge about what peptide sequences in polyproteins are cleavable by HIV proteases is very useful. In this article, based on the formulation that ...
Corticotropin-releasing hormone ( Crh ) maps to mouse Chromosome 3
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag New York, Inc., 1993-10)
Development of pure culture biofilms of P. putida on solid supports
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1991-03-15)
Pseudomonas putida biofilms were developed on and biofilm accumulation rate data were obtained for the following two classes of support materials: charged surfaces and noncharged hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces. The ...
Pyrroloquinoline Quinone Acts with Flavin Reductase to Reduce Ferryl Myoglobin in Vitro and Protects Isolated Heart from Reoxygenation Injury
(Elsevier, 1993-05-28)
Pyrroloquinoline quinone has been isolated from bacteria and recently has been detected in mammalian tissues and fluids. We report in vitro studies which show that pyrroloquinoline quinone serves as a high-affinity substrate ...
Nitrate deposition in northern hardwood forests and the nitrogen metabolism of Acer saccharum marsh
(Springer-Verlag, 1996-10)
It is generally assumed that plant assimilation constitutes the major sink for anthropogenic Nitrate NO 3 − deposited in temperate forests because plant growth is usually limited by nitrogen (N) availability. Nevertheless, ...
Model Complexity has a Significant Effect on the Numerical Value and Interpretation of Metabolic Sensitivity Coefficients
(Elsevier, 1993-04-07)
Logarithmic sensitivity coefficients were promulgated for the analysis of metabolic regulation about 20 years ago. Interest in their use has risen significantly since their introduction. However, no comprehensive evaluation ...
Antinociceptive effects of [D-Ala2]deltorphin II, a highly selective [delta] agonist in vivo
(Elsevier, 1990)
The present study has characterized the antinociceptive actions of [D-Ala2]deltorphin II following intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) administration in the mouse tail-flick test. [D-Ala2]deltorphin II produced dose- and ...
Evidence for supporting cell mitosis in response to acoustic trauma in the avian inner ear
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman and Hall Ltd ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1992-09)
Acoustic overstimulation can lead to sensory cell (hair cell) loss in the auditory epithelium. Damaged hair cells in the organ of Corti (the mammalian auditory end-organ) degenerate and are replaced by non-sensory cells ...
Light-Activated Release of Nitric Oxide from Vascular Smooth Muscle of Normotensive and Hypertensive Rats
(Elsevier, 1994-04-15)
A porphyrinic sensor was used to monitor nitric oxide release from vascular smooth muscle in response to exposure to ultraviolet light. Aortic rings exposed to UV light relaxed with a time course that parallels this observed ...
