Attraction of mosquitoes to diethyl methylbenzamide and ethyl hexanediol.
Studies by prior workers have shown that insect repellents can act as attractants when present as low concentrations, deposits or residues. In the present study deet and ethyl hexanediol were tested in 2-fold serial doses from 1.9 X 10(-9) to 1.6 X 10(-2) mg/cm2 on the forearms of volunteers against colonized Anopheles albimanus, Aedes aegypti and Ae. taeniorhynchus. Both compounds were signifi...
متن کاملBarrier-to-autointegration factor (BAF) condenses DNA by looping.
Barrier-to-autointegration factor (BAF) is a protein that has been proposed to compact retroviral DNA, making it inaccessible as a target for self-destructive integration into itself (autointegration). BAF also plays an important role in nuclear organization. We studied the mechanism of DNA condensation by BAF using total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy. We found that BAF compacts D...
متن کاملAdenovirus protein VII condenses DNA, represses transcription, and associates with transcriptional activator E1A.
Adenovirus protein VII is the major protein component of the viral nucleoprotein core. It is highly basic, and an estimated 1070 copies associate with each viral genome, forming a tightly condensed DNA-protein complex. We have investigated DNA condensation, transcriptional repression, and specific protein binding by protein VII. Xenopus oocytes were microinjected with mRNA encoding HA-tagged pr...
متن کاملEtiology and Evaluation of Sperm Chromatin Anomalies
Evidence suggests that human sperm chromatin anomalies adversely affect reproductive outcomes and infertile men possess substantially amount of sperm with chromatin anomalies than fertile men. Routine semen analysis evaluates parameters such as sperm motility and morphology, but does not examine the nuclear DNA integrity of spermatozoa. It has been suggested that altered nuclear chromatin struc...
متن کاملSmall-angle neutron scattering study of aqueous solutions of pentanediol and hexanediol
Aqueous solutions of 1,2-pentanediol, 1,5-pentanediol, 1,2-hexanediol and 1,6hexanediol have been studied by small-angle neutron scattering over a wide range of concentrations and temperatures. The structure of the solutions on the mesoscopic length scale, corresponding to the intermolecular distances, was analysed with the help of the Kirkwood–Buff formalism. 1,2-Hexanediol solutions exhibited...
