Augmentation of hepatic doxorubicin extraction with extracorporeal filtration avoids the dose-dependent, nonlinear increase in AUC observed with systemic administration
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 1997-12)
Purpose : Regional therapy of primary or metastatic liver cancer with low hepatic extraction ratio drugs such as doxorubicin is constrained by development of systemic toxicity. To examine the effect of augmentation of ...
Cell cycle of Chlorella vulgaris can deviate from the synchronous binary division model
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman and Hall ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-06)
Conditioned medium from high density Chlorella vugaris cultures was freeze dried extracted into ethanol. The ethanol was volatilized and the resulting powder then introduced with C. vulgaris photoautotrophic cultures which ...
Ethanol effects on self-administration of alfentanil, cocaine, and nomifensine in rhesus monkeys
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 1997-04)
A common form of polydrug use is that of cocaine and ethanol. The identification of an ethanol-cocaine combination product, cocaethylene, with properties in common with cocaine, has led to speculation that this metabolite ...
Synthesis and characterization of precursors for group II metal aluminates
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 1997-10)
Precursors to Group II metal aluminates (MAI 2 O 4 , M=Mg, Ca, Ba, Sr) are synthesized from inexpensive starting materials including Group II metal oxides/hydroxides, Al(OH) 3 , triethanolamine (TEA) and ethylene glycol, ...
Isolation of a novel plant lectin with an unusual specificity from Calystegia sepium
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman and Hall ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-01)
A novel plant lectin has been isolated from the rhizomes of Calystegia sepium (hedge bindweed) and partially characterized. The lectin is a dimeric protein composed of two identical non-covalently linked subunits of 16kDa. ...
Purification and carbohydrate-binding specificity of Agrocybe cylindracea lectin
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman and Hall ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-01)
A lectin was isolated from fruiting bodies of Agrocybe cylindracea by two ion-exchange chromatographies and gel filtration on Toyopearl HW55F. The lectin was homogeneous on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and its molecular ...
Real-Time Measurement of Thin Film Thickness During Plasma Processing
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-12)
An in situ single point two-color laser interferometer is used to monitor in real-time the thickness of thin transparent films during processing. The instantaneous change of film thickness is determined by comparing the ...
Clocinnamox inhibits the intravenous self-administration of opioid agonists in rhesus monkeys: comparison with effects on opioid agonist-mediated antinociception
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 1997-02)
The effects of CCAM, an insurmountable mu opioid receptor antagonist, were studied on the intravenous self-administration and thermoantinociception of alfentanil and nalbuphine, high- and low-efficacy opioid agonists, ...
Purification and characterization of a new mannose-specific lectin from Sternbergia lutea bulbs
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman and Hall ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-01)
A new mannose-binding lectin was isolated from Sternbergia lutea bulbs by affinity chromatography on an α(1-2)mannobiose-Synsorb column and purified further by gel filtration. This lectin (S. lutea agglutinin; SLA) appeared ...
ACE Inhibitors in Heart Failure: Prospects and Limitations
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-05)
ACE inhibitors have been shown to be effective in reducing the morbidity and mortality of patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction, but their application to clinical practice in this situation is still limited. ...
