Food lipid systems are very complex and so is oxidative
degradation that render them unpalatable for human consumption.
The significance of lipid degradation and the key reactions involved
have been thoroughly studied and are well understood today. This
is not true, however, of the secondary products of the autoxidation
reactions....
The effect of source of dietary carbohydrate on the plasma lipid
concentrations and glucose tolerance were studied. Three women
received diets which contained 16%, 40%, and 44% of calories as
protein, fat, and carbohydrate, respectively. During the control
period of six days the carbohydrate was derived from mixed sources.
In...
Phospholipids of Tenebrio molitor larvae were
separated on columns of DEAE-cellulose and silicic acid-Hyflo Super Cel. The major phosphatide components were
identified by various analytical procedures.
Phosphatidyl choline was demonstrated to be the
predominant phospholipid with a high percentage of
phosphatidyl ethanolamine. A small amount of inositol-containing
phosphatides were present....
Three general types of swimbladders were found in the eight species of myctophids studied: gas-filled, fat-invested, and atrophied or reduced. Small specimens of all species had thin-walled, gas-filled swimbladders. Large specimens of Stenobrachius leucopsarus had fat-invested swim-bladders and large Diaphus theta had either gas-filled or atrophied swimbladders, as found by...
There is increasing evidence that aging is affected by biological (circadian) clocks – the internal mechanisms that coordinate daily changes in gene expression, physiological functions and behavior with external day/night cycles. Recent data suggest that disruption of the mammalian circadian clock results in accelerated aging and increased age‐related pathologies such...
Remote-access computer file serials, often referred to simply as electronic serials, possess characteristics that challenge our definition of the term “serial” and our ability to catalog them according to the established cataloging code. These challenges are reflected in the library science literature, where cataloging and indexing issues have generated thoughtful...
From a population of cells of Pseudomonas aeruginosa sensitive 33 parts per million (ppm) and 0.1 mg per ml of quaternary
ammonium (QAC) and chloramphenicol respectively, pure strains
resistant to 750 ppm and 50 mg per ml of these antibiotics were isolated.
Lipids from the sensitive and resistant cells grown...
The effect of source of dietary carboyhydrate upon the concentration
and distribution of phospholipids in the fractions of human
blood was studied. Three healthy women received diets which contained
16% of the calories as protein, 40% as fat, and 44% as carbohydrate.
During the four dietary periods of six days...
A quantitative comparison was made of the incorporation of 14, C¹⁴ lipid compounds into Lee influenza virus. The compounds tested were either lipids reported to be present in the virus or precursors to virus lipid components. Infected chorioallantoic tissues were incubated in medium containing the C¹⁴ metabolites. The virus was...
