A novel acid proteinase (Tropiase) was isolated from Candida tropicalis IFO 0589 by DE52-cellulose, and DEAE-Cosmogel column chromatographies. The purified tropiase gave a single band on disc polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, isoelectric focusing and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme preparation had a molecular weight of 23,900, isoelectric point of p...

When using phiX174 RFI DNA as a template, invitro, E. coli RNA polymerase synthesizes four major purine triphosphate-containing 5' end sequences. RNase A digests of alpha(32)P labeled RNA were further digested with spleen exonuclease to remove the bulk of the oligonucleotides with 5' hydroxyls and then chromatographed on DEAE cellulose to resolve the remaining 5' terminal oligonucleotides. By a...

Colony-stimulating factors (CSF) active on both human and murine bone marrow colony-forming units in culture (CFU-C) were found in the conditioned medium of Yoshida sarcoma cells (line YSSF-212T), although the cells originated from rats. The CSF were inactivated by digestion with trypsin, alpha-chymotrypsin, and pronase. By chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, the CSF were separated into five subg...

Abstract Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) is pure isolated from alpha cellulose. The demand for renewable and sustainable raw materials the industry has developed as one of most pressing challenges in recent decades. seaweed processing produces a large amount solid fibrous waste, which can be utilized an additional source feedstock. increase production continues to increase, well waste that use...

The solid state track detector of celluloid films (cellulose nitrate+camphor 25% an weight) using etching technique is suitable for low energy alpha particle detection . The critical rate of energy loss for track formation in celluloid films is determined as 1 .3 MeV/mg•Ecm2. Irradiated samples are etched in NaOH (6 N) solution at 46•Ž for 10 minutes . The etched tracks are observed under a vie...

alpha 1-Proteinase inhibitor was purified from porcine blood by ammonium sulphate and Cibachron Blue-Sepharose fractionation, ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-Cellulose, gel filtration on Sephadex G-25, and zinc chelating chromatography. Thus, an inhibitor preparation with a specific activity of 1.62 IU/mg protein (enzyme: trypsin; substrate: BzArgNan) was obtained. In sodium dodecyl sulphat...

Tobramycin belongs to the aminoglycoside class of antibiotics. Assay procedures were investigated to determine the most suitable methods for the assay of tobramycin in blood, urine, and pharmaceutical preparations. The agar-plate assay was the method of choice for determinations in urine and serum. The turbidimetric assay was selected for the assay of pharmaceutical preparations. An extraction ...

1. A technique has been developed for the measurement of kallikrein 'production' in rat renal cortical cells in suspension. 2. After preparative steps, column chromatography on DEAE-cellulose yielded a peak of alpha-N-tosyl-L-arginine methyl ester (Tos-Arg-OMe) esterase activity identical with kallikrein isolated from rat urine in respect of pH optimum, effects of inhibitors, biological activit...

The complete amino acid sequences of the hemoglobins from the adult European mink (Mustela lutreola) are presented. The erythrocytes contain two hemoglobin components and three globin chains. The isolation of globin chains achieved by ion-exchange chromatography on a column of CM-cellulose in 8 M urea buffer. The primary structure of globin chains and of the tryptic peptides determined in liqui...
