A comparative study was made on the effect of urea denaturation
of bovine serum albumin (BSA), polyglycyl BSA and poly-L-phenylalanyl
BSA. The denaturation process was followed by ultraviolet
spectrophotometry and optical rotation.
A blue shift in the absorption maximum at 278 mμ was observed
in urea denatured proteins, In 7M...
A method was devised and tested for rapid and quantitative
identification of microbial flora in fresh seafoods. The rapid
identification of large numbers of isolates was made possible by
(1) a simplified identification scheme established by reference
culture studies and from the known reactions of microorganisms
reported in the literature,...
In 1962 a large amount of data was collected in an effort to
establish the existence of subsurface ocean currents off the coast of
Oregon. The presence of several phenomena, including tides and
measurement errors not directly associated with the hypothetical
currents, complicates the interpretation of the data and the...
The objectives of this study were to isolate 2, 4-diaminobutyric
acid and to attempt cyclizing the acid and its disulfonamide derivative.
The original synthetic method by Adamson was followed but a
modified isolation procedure for the acid was employed.
Following the synthesis, the acidic solution was passed through
Dowex-3 ion-exchange...
This paper presents a theoretical study of real-time bandwidth
compression systems using the Hilbert transform and associated analytic
signal concept. An analytic signal is defined as
u(t) = s(t) + [superscript ¯]js(t) , where [superscript ¯]s(t) is the Hilbert transform of the signal
s(t). A complete discussion of the properties...
Pseudomonas aeruginosa cells were selected for their ability
to grow in the presence of 750 ppm alkyldimethylethylbenzyl
ammonium chloride (QAC). These cells were found to retain their
resistance to the germicide throughout tri-weekly transfers for 7
months in tryptone glucose yeast extract (TGY) broth containing no
QAC. Comparisons of the...
