Inhibition of Vesicular Glutamate Uptake by Rose Bengal-Related Compounds: Structure–Activity Relationship
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, Inc., 2005-03)
Synaptic vesicular accumulation of glutamate is a vital initial step in glutamate transmission. We have previously shown that Rose Bengal, a polyhalogenated fluorescein analog, is a potent inhibitor of glutamate uptake ...
Effectiveness factor calculations for immobilized enzyme catalysts
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1973-09)
The steady state, nonlinear diffusion equations which describe reactions in constrained enzyme solutions are of great interest in many biological and engineering applications. As in other types of nonlinear differential ...
Rapid protein release from Escherichia coli by chemical permeabilization under fermentation conditions
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1992-03-25)
Overall protein release greater than 75% in less than 1 h can be attained by exposing exponentially growing Escherichia coli cells to 0.4 M guanidine plus 0.5% Triton X-100 at 37°C in medium. Cell growth stops immediately ...
Effect of Neuropeptide Y on Natural Killer Activity of Normal Human Lymphocytes
(Elsevier, 1993-03)
The in vitro effect of neuropeptide Y (NPY) on natural killer (NK) cell activities of normal lymphocytes was investigated. NPY at 10-9 to 10-12M concentrations produced significant suppression of NK activity against K 562 ...
On the dynamic order of structured Escherichia coli growth models
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1987-04-20)
Reliable dynamic descriptions of cellular growth are important for many practical applications including bioreactor design and control. A chemically structured growth model of Escherichia coli has been formulated and ...
Experimental and mathematical modeling studies of protozoan predation on bacteria
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1973-07)
The predation of bacteria by protozoan in both continuous and batch cultures was studied using experimental and modeling techniques. The predator organism was the ciliate, Tetrahymena pyriformis. The bacterium, Aerobacter ...
Comments on rarity and chaos, Thomas D. Rogers, math. biosci. 72:13-18 (1984)
(Elsevier, 1985-03)
On performing experimental studies on transient states of continuous-flow methanogenic reactors
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1990-03-25)
One approach to exploring the behavior of microbial cultures during transient conditions of unbalanced growth is to experimentally observe continuous-flow biological reactors which have been subjected to perturbations in ...
Retrievable hydrogels for ovarian follicle transplantation and oocyte collection
(American Cancer SocietyWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2018-08)
Cancer survivorship rates have drastically increased due to improved efficacy of oncologic treatments. Consequently, clinical concerns have shifted from solely focusing on survival to quality of life, with fertility ...
Ornithine decarboxylase activity in retinal explants of goldfish undergoing optic nerve regeneration
(Elsevier, 1981-06)
Retinal explants cultured in the presence of fetal calf serum (FCS) exhibit an increase in the activity of ornithine decarboxylase which is maximal several hours after explanation. The measured activity of this enzyme is ...
