1. 31p NMR is a useful analytical technique for the study of the polymorphic phase behaviour of hydrated phospholipids in excess water. Such possibilities arise due to lateral diffusion of phospholipids which, in non-bilayer phases, produce additional motional averaging mechanisms. This results in distinctive 31p NMR spectra for lipids in the bilayer phase, hexagonal (Hll) phase, or phases such...

We have determined the structure of a polysaccharide from strain B33, a fast-growing bacterium that forms nitrogen-fixing nodules with Asiatic and American soya bean cultivars. On the basis of monosaccharide analysis, methylation analysis, one-dimensional 1H- and 13C-NMR and two-dimensional NMR experiments, the structure was shown to consist of a polymer having the repeating unit -->6)-4-O-meth...

Transgenic soya bean (Glycine max) plants overexpressing a seed-specific bacterial phytoene synthase gene from Pantoea ananatis modified to target to plastids accumulated 845 μg β carotene g(-1) dry seed weight with a desirable 12:1 ratio of β to α. The β carotene accumulating seeds exhibited a shift in oil composition increasing oleic acid with a concomitant decrease in linoleic acid and an in...

Circulating antibodies to soya-derived protein antigens have been measured in patients with duodenitis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis and coeliac disease. Significantly raised antibody titres were found frequently in the coeliac group, particularly those patients showing a suboptimal response to a gluten-free diet, but rarely in subjects with other gastrointestinal diseases. Antisoya acti...

Monsanto, the world's largest seed producer, which is the focus of European opposition to genetically modified crops still banned from commercial planting throughout the European Union, has flagged up a new conventional variety of broccoli set to win awards at a major European show this month. The company is hoping that the new broccoli, Bellaverde, will sway the judges at the Fruit Logistica s...

Fat in the diet of rats. 8 39 carbon dioxide plus soya-bean oil (ratio 2: I) grew poorly, and all died during the first half of the experimental period. 4. The animals fed on a mixture of PT 006 or PT 006 plus distillate-soya-bean oil (ratio 2: I ) grew throughout the whole experimental period (36 weeks), although significantly more slowly than the controls. No neoplastic tissue was found at au...

PARTICIPANTS Two children aged about 6 months INTERVENTION Alternating bottles of soya-based milk and cow's milk provided by neighbours over their back fence. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Presence of diarrhea, irritability, rash an...
