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 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 ...
Quantitative evaluation of the pH profile in organic acid fermentations

The effects of menstrual phase and nicotine abstinence on nicotine intake and on biochemical and subjective measures in women smokers: a A preliminary report
(Elsevier, 1992-11)
Nicotine intake, menstrual and smoking withdrawal symptomatology, and baseline cortisol and MHPG were assessed in nine women smokers under conditions of ad lib smoking and overnight abstinence in three menstrual phases ...
Selective extraction using preferential transport through adsorptive membranes
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1996-12-05)
Selective extraction of a protein from a mixture can be accomplished using an adsorptive membrane and low displacement recuperative parametric pumping. Low displacement recuperative parametric pumping can lead to the ...
Gene expression of the insulin-like growth factors and their receptors in cultured human retinal pigment epithelial cells
(Elsevier, 1992-01)
Insulin-like growth factors I and II (IGF I and II) are polypeptides with both growth-promoting and insulin-like metabolic effects16,27. Immunoreactive IGF I is present in the retina14 and both IGF I and II are present in ...
Short-Term Adrenalectomy Increases Glucocorticoid and Mineralocorticoid Receptor mRNA in Selective Areas of the Developing Hippocampus
(Elsevier, 1993-10)
In the central nervous system, adrenal steroids bind to two different types of corticosteroid receptors: glucocorticoid (GR) or mineralocorticoid (MR). In vitro biochemical and autoradiographic techniques have been used ...
Reproduction numbers and thresholds in stochastic epidemic models I. Homogeneous populations
(Elsevier, 1991-12)
We compare threshold results for the deterministic and stochastic versions of the homogeneous SI model with recruitment, death due to the disease, a background death rate, and transmission rate [beta]cXY / N. If an infective ...
Physiological changes during the adaptation of hybridoma cells to low serum and serum-free media
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1991-01-05)
Two murine hybridoma cell lines (167.4G5.3 and S3H5/Γ2bA2) were adapted to grow in low-serum and serum-free media by a weaning procedure. The changes in cell growth, metabolic, and antibody production rates with adaptation ...
