Cadmium concentrations in recent snow and firn layers in the Canadian arctic
(Springer-Verlag, 1994-05)
2-Methoxyethanol inhibits gap junctional communication in rat myometrial myocytes
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1998-06)
The glycol ethers 2-methoxyethanol (2-ME) and 2-ethoxyethanol (2-EE) prolong gestation in rodents. Because gap junctions in the myometrium likely facilitate parturition, the present study examined inhibition of gap junctional ...
Phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride elicits and intensifies the clinical expression of neuropathic insults
(Springer-Verlag, 1992-01)
It has been recently reported that phenyl-methanesulfonyl fluoride (PMSF) when given to hens after a neuropathic organophosphate (OP) promotes organophosphate-induced delayed polyneuropathy (OPIDP). Chicks are resistant ...
Refined localization of human connexin32 gene locus, GJB1, to Xq13.1
(Elsevier, 1992-06)
Connexins are the peptide subunits of gap junctions that interconnect cells to allow the direct, intercellular transfer of small molecules. Recently, the human connexin32 gene (locus designation GJB1) has been regionally ...
Optimal estimators for ambient air quality levels
(Elsevier, 1992)
Procedures to estimate missing data, determine extrema, and derive uncertainties for data collected in ambient air monitoring networks are presented. The optimal linear estimators used obtain unbiased, minimum variance ...
In vitro embryotoxicity of the cysteine proteinase inhibitors benzyloxycarbonyl-phenylalanine-alanine-diazomethane (Z-Phe-Ala-CHN 2 ) and benzyloxycarbony1-phenylalanine-phenylalanine-diazomethane (Z-Phe-Phe-CHN 2 )
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1994-09)
This study makes use of whole embryo culture to investigate the potential embryotoxicity of benzyloxycarbonyl-phenylalanine-alanine-diazomethane (Z-Phe-Ala-CHN 2 ) and benzyloxycarbonyl-phenylalanine-phenylalanine-diazomethane ...
Critical analysis of the graphical determination of hansen's solubility parameters for lightly crosslinked polymers
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1996-12-19)
The most widely accepted method for determining Hansen's three-dimensional solubility parameters (3DSP) for crosslinked polymers entails graphically estimating the center of a spherical region in 3DSP-coordinate space whose ...
Reliability of nerve conduction studies among active workers
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1999-10)
Nerve conduction studies play an important role in clinical practice and research. Given their widespread use, reliability of tests merits careful attention. We assessed interexaminer and intraexaminer reliability of median ...
A simple dye-coupling assay for evaluating gap junctional communication: The importance of transcription and translation on the establishment of dye-coupling
(Elsevier, 1990-07)
A simple dye-coupling assay has been developed to study gap junctional communication using a uterine cell line. The new dye-coupling assay was found to be of comparable sensitivity to an autoradiographic assay for transfer ...
