Due to a number of disadvantages associated with the use of antibodies as
affinity stationary phases, researchers have recently began to explore the use of RNA
and DNA aptamers for use as affinity stationary phases. These molecules have been
shown to be a viable choice for applications in many methods...
The production of C¹⁴O₂ metabolized from glucose labeled in
specific carbon atoms by homogenates of chick embryonic and adult
heart was compared by the radiorespirometric technique. Homogenates
of early (two to five days of incubation) embryo hearts were
found to utilize the phosphogluconate pathway of glucose catabolism
to a greater...
In order to examine some possible tyrosyl interactions, poly-tyrosyl lysozyme and poly-O-methyltyrosyl lysozyme were prepared and their solubilities were compared. Both derivatives exhibited
similar pH dependent solubilities, showing a minimum solubility at
about pH 8. Their solubilities varied with temperature, having a
positive enthalpy of solution. The effect of a...
Lamellar x-ray diffraction was studied from thin films of L-α-1,2-dipalmitoyl lecithin (DPL) and a 1:1 mixture (BrDPL) of L-α-l-palmitoyl-2-(9- bromopaimitoyl) lecithin and its 10-bromo analog. The specimens had high lamellar order, with an upper bound on the mosaicity of 6 mrad (0.4°) for DPL and BrDPL. With various water contents,...
