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,...
The observed and calculated structural parameters of three systems
of phosphatidylcholine bilayers in fully-hydrated multilamellar
vesicles (MLVs) were determined using x-ray diffraction techniques.
The analysis used the x-ray reflections from the low-, intermediateand
wide-angle regions of the diffraction patterns in the subgel, gel,
rippled and fluid phases to determine the...
This thesis describes a Mossbauer effect and electron
paramagnetic resonance study of iron (III) tetraphenylporphyrinatobenzenethiolate
benzene thiol, an analog compound
for bacterial cytochrome P-450. The compound is unusual in
that it provides a model for the two ferric reaction states
of cytochrome P-450. The iron in the model compound exhibits...
The purpose of this study was to test a proposed procedure for
providing seniors in small high schools of Oregon with information
in regard to the private colleges and universities of the state. It included
the development of an audio-visual technique and its trial on
a sample group.
Scope and...
The objective of this study was to compare the total collection
(in vivo), nylon bag, and in vitro digestibility techniques under
standardized conditions. Twin steers were used simultaneously to
measure the digestibility of five rations consisting of the following
ratios of alfalfa hay to steamed roller barley: 4:0 (I), 3:1...
The consistent application of phosphatase inhibitors and a novel final purification step using a connected series of DE-51, DE-52, and DE-53 anion exchange chromatography columns facilitate the preparation of electrophoretically homogeneous sub-pupulations of rabbit muscle phosphofructokinase which differ in their catalytic properties and endogenous covalent phosphate contents. A band of...
The developmental patterns of five fuel resources located within
the state of Wyoming are examined through time and in relation to
several factors external to the location of the fuels. An historic
description and inventory of the five fuels: petroleum; natural gas;
oil shale; coal; uranium are presented. External factors...
Amines formed by biosynthesis in germinated barley have been
suggested as precursors for N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) in barley
malt dried by direct-fired kilning. This hypothesis was verified by
germinating raw barley and exposing the resulting malt roots and
clean malt to nitrous acid. Quantitation of the NDMA formed indicated
that malt...
