An in vitro study was conducted to investigate the metabolism and distribution of Se⁷⁵-selenite and Se⁷⁵-selenomethionine (SEM) in
chick blood. Se⁷⁵-selenite is taken up by RBC (13% within 20
minutes) and expelled into the plasma to become bound to proteins. In
contrast, Se⁷⁵-SEM showed a more gradual and continuous buildup...
Lipid peroxidation is believed to be an important
process in the development of cellular injury. In
addition to the degradation of biological membranes,
increasing evidence indicates that lipid peroxidation can
alter the structure and function of DMA.
The present study examines the peroxidation of
nuclear membranes and the capacity of...

Within the architectural and social categories, the specific objective was to examine the changes in the five hundred year period. Three specific houses were chosen as...
Hemicellulose hydrolyzate contains many carbohydrate
fractions, the most abundant being xylose, arabinose, and
glucuronic acid. Under mild acid conditions (0.025 -
0.10 M sulfuric acid) and high temperatures (140°C to
200°C) the first two components form furfural through a
series of dehydration reactions. Unlike xylose and
arabinose, glucuronic acid must...
