Increased synthesis of phosphatidylcholine by rat lung following premature birth
(Elsevier, 1980-01-18)
Pregnant rats were delivered prematurely at 20 days and 21 days gestation (2 and 1 day premature). The survival was 52 +/- 3% at 20 days gestation and 100% at 21 days gestation. [Me-14C]Choline incorporation into ...
Fragments of human growth hormone produced by digestion with bromelain : Chemistry and biological properties
(Elsevier, 1983-01-12)
In an effort to produce small discrete fragments of human growth hormone (GH), we examine the action of the proteolytic enzyme, bromelain, on this molecule. Purified human GH incubated for 40 min at 22[deg]C with crude ...
[omega]-Difluoroamino carboxylic acids: Readily accessible fluorine-labeled fatty acid analogs
(Elsevier, 1983-05)
15-Difluoroamino-pentadecanoic acid and 12-difluoroamino-dodecanoic acid were prepared by treating the corresponding lactams with F2 in aqueous acetonitrile. The intermediate N-fluorolactams were also isolated. Whereas ...
Thermophysics of the lanthanide hydroxides I. Heat capacities of La(OH)3, Gd(OH)3, and Eu(OH)3 from near 5 to 350 K. Lattice and Schottky contributions
(Elsevier, 1980-01)
From values of the heat capacity of microcrystalline La(OH)3, Gd(OH)3, and Eu(OH)3 determined by precise adiabatic calorimetry from near 10 to 350 K, the Schottky contribution associated with the low-lying J-manifolds of ...
Effect of Ca2+ on thermotropic properties of saturated phosphatidylcholine liposomes
(Elsevier, 1982-04-07)
The effect of various concentrations of calcium ion (Ca2+) on dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC), distearoylphosphatidylcholine (DSPC) and mixed DPPC/DSPC (1:1) liposomes was studied by differential scanning calorimetry. ...
The microwave spectrum of argon-phosphorus trifluoride
(Elsevier, 1987-01-23)
The argon-PF3 complex has been prepared in a supersonic expansion of Ar (98%) and PF3 (2%). A Fourier-transform micro-wave spectrometer employing a Fabry-Perot cavity was used to assign 28 rotational transitions. The ...
Aminoglycoside antibiotics preferentially increase permeability in phosphoinositide-containing membranes: a study with carboxyfluorescein in liposomes
(Elsevier, 1987-08-07)
The rate of release from multilamellar liposomes of the fluoroscent probe carboxyfluorescein was determined as a measure of membrane permeability. Liposomes of phosphatidylcholine and different anionic phospholipids were ...
Homogeneous enzyme-linked competitive binding assay for biotin based on the avidin-biotin interaction
(Elsevier, 1988)
A homogeneous enzyme-linked competitive-binding assay for biotin with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), is described. This assay is based on the interaction between a G6PDH/biotin conjugate with avidin, a natural ...
Characterization of five members of the actin gene family in the sea urchin
(Elsevier, 1981-12-28)
Hybridization of an actin cDNA clone (pSA38) to restriction enzyme digests of Strongylocentrotus purpuratus DNA indicates that the sea urchin genome contains at least five different actin genes. A sea urchin genomic clone ...
