Ketone aldehydes in animal tissues.

Ketone aldehydes in tissues.

Interaction of amines with ketone aldehydes and unsaturated aldehydes.

The optical changes occurring during the interaction of amines with ketone aldehydes or unsaturated aldehydes are accompanied by strong electron spin resonance signals, and can thus be explained as due to the transfer of one whole electron in the ground state.

Utilization of ketone bodies by mammalian tissues.

It is now well established that ketone bodies (acetoacetate and D-3-hydroxybutyrate) are metabolized by many mammalian tissues and that the rate of utilization is mainly dependent on their availability in the circulation. The aim in this contribution is to summarize briefly the pathways of ketone-body metabolism and to discuss the role of ketone bodies m various tissues. For a detailed review o...

Phosphorus Compounds in Animal Tissues

The concept that nucleic acids are intimately associated with fundamental cellular processes has gained considerable favor within the last few years. This can undoubtedly be attributed to the researches of Caspersson and his associates. Caspersson, with the aid of ultraviolet spectrophotometry, has been able to measure the nucleic acids in various parts of the cell under a variety of experiment...

The determination of higher fatty aldehydes in tissues.

The determination of the content and distribution of the higher aliphatic aldehydes in tissues have depended on modifications (l-3) of the Feulgen procedure which employs the fuchsin-sulfurous acid reagent. However, several observers, notably Ehrlich et al. (2), have commented on two features of this procedure which make its application difficult: The Schiff reagent reacts with a wide variety o...
