The effects of exopolymers on cell morphology and culturability of Leuconostoc mesenteroides during starvation
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 1999-11)
Biofilm formation by bacterial cells can be used to modify the subsurface permeability for the purpose of microbial enhanced oil recovery, bio-barrier formation, and in situ bioremediation. Once injected into the subsurface, ...
Evaluation of amonafide in disseminated malignant melanoma
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1993-06)
Amonafide (AMF), NSC 308847 is an investigational anticancer drug acting as a DNA intercalating agent. This paper presents results of a phase II clinical study of AMF in disseminated malignant melanoma. Twenty patients, ...
Interactive effects of subanesthetic ketamine and subhypnotic lorazepam in humans
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 1998-01)
Ketamine is an N -methyl- D -aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist with psychotogenic and dissociative effects in healthy humans. These cognitive and perceptual effects in humans are reportedly reduced by benzodiazepine ...
On-line multichannel Raman spectroscopic detection system for capillary zone electrophoresis
(Elsevier, 1991)
An on-line multichannel Raman spectroscopic detection system for capillary zone electrophoresis using a charge-coupled device as the detector is described. Resonant, near-resonant and non-resonant excitation Raman ...
CCK antagonists reveal that CCK-8 and JMV-180 interact with different sites on the rat pancreatic acinar cell CCKA receptor
(Elsevier, 1994)
The ability of CCKA antagonists to inhibit full and partial CCK agonists of the rat pancreatic acinar cell CCKA receptor has been studied. When isolated rat pancreatic acini were superfused with CCK-8 (10 pM-1 nM) or CCK-4 ...
Calcification of valved aortic allografts in rats: Effects of age, crosslinking, and inhibitors
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1995-02)
Experiments were carried out to investigate rat aortic allograft calcification using valved abdominal aortic allografts. Results indicated that this was a potentially useful model for investigating fresh allograft ...
Protein tyrosine phosphatases: characterization of extracellular and intracellular domains
(Elsevier, 1994-02)
Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) play an important role in the regulation of cell growth and differentiation. With over 30 PTPs identified, the specific functions of these enzymes are now being addressed. The identification ...
The cloned butyrylcholinesterase (BCHE) gene maps to a single chromosome site, 3q26
(Elsevier, 1991-10)
Human tissues have two distinct cholinesterase activities: acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase. Acetylcholinesterase functions in the transmission of nerve impulses, whereas the physiological function of ...
Interaction of five -mannose-specific lectins with a series of synthetic branched trisaccharides
(Elsevier, 1991-06-25)
The interaction of a series of synthetic, branched trisaccharides with five -mannose-specific lectins was studied by precipitation-inhibition assay. The branched methyl [alpha]--mannotrioside, [alpha]--Manp-(1-->3)-[[ ...
Boron-modified polysilylcarbodi-imides as precursors for Si–B–C–N ceramics: Synthesis, plastic-forming and high-temperature behavior
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 1998-10)
The synthesis, by two different reaction pathways, of boron-modified polysilylcarbodi-imides of general type {B[C 2 H 4 Si(R)NCN] 3 } n (R 14=singly bonded organic ligand) and the plastic-forming and the thermal behavior ...
