Under steady-state conditions, the maximum rate of lactic acid removal was found to be 588 mg/h per liter of continuous culture.

Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a potent vasoconstrictor. Its effect on arterial wave reflections and central pressure augmentation is unknown. We studied whether ET-1, in plasma concentrations present in disease, increases pulse wave velocity (PWV) and augmentation index (AIx) and therefore compromises cardiac output, and whether the ET-1 receptor blocker VML-588 (previously AXV-034343 and Ro 61-1790) ...

We characterize, in terms of elementary properties, the abelian monoids which are direct limits of finite direct sums of monoids of the form ðZ=nZÞ t f0g (where 0 is a new zero element), for positive integers n. The key properties are the Riesz refinement property and the requirement that each element x has finite order, that is, ðnþ 1Þx 1⁄4 x for some positive integer n. Such monoids are neces...
