The histochemistry of thiols and disulphides. IV. Protective fixation by organomercurial-formalin mixtures
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman and Hall Ltd. ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1980-01)
Formation of mercaptides as the result of adding organomercuric salts to neutral formalin used for fixation was found to protect protein thiols from autoxidation, provided the tissues were washed in distilled and not tap ...
Ultrastructural localization of chromogranin: a potential marker for the electron microscopical recognition of endocrine cell secretory granules
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman and Hall Ltd. ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1985-09)
Using a monoclonal antibody (LK2H10) directed against human chromogranin, we have been able to localize this soluble glycoprotein to the matrix of secretory granules from a wide variety of endocrine cells. In the gut, ...
Differences between tree species in hydraulic press calibration of leaf water potential are correlated with specific leaf area
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 1984-11)
. To determine the usefulness of the J-14 Hydraulic Press (Campbell Scientific, Inc., Logan, Utah, U.S.A.) in estimating leaf water potential, we calibrated the J-14 Press against a Scholander-type pressure chamber for ...
Elderberry bark lectin-gold techniques for the detection of Neu5Ac (α2,6) Gal/GalNAc sequences: applications and limitations
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman and Hall Ltd. ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1988-09)
The lectin from the elderberry ( Sambucus nigra L.) bark, shown to recognize the sequence neuraminic acid (α2,6) galactose/ N -acetylgalactosamine, was applied for detecting binding sites in Lowicryl K4M sections by light ...
Relationship among fibre type, myosin ATPase activity and contractile properties
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman and Hall Ltd ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1982-11)
At least two types of skeletal muscle myosin have been described which differ in ATPase activity and stability in alkaline or acidic media. Differences in ATPase characteristics distinguish Type I and Type II fibres ...
