Over a range of concentrations from less than 0.1 mm to more than 70 mm, sweet potato root mitochondria display a bimodal substrate saturation isotherm for malate. The high affinity portion of the isotherm has an apparent Km for malate of 0.85 mm and fits a rectangular hyperbolic function. The low affinity portion of the isotherm is sigmoid in character and gives an apparent S(0.5) of 40.6 mm a...

Argon laser iridotomy was successfully performed on 47 out of 52 eyes of 35 patients by the continuous wave argon laser. The technique of argon laser iridotomy is described in detail. A number of complications were observed. The reasons for these are discussed, and measures for the avoidance of complications are suggested.

BACKGROUND We describe two cases of recurrent acute angle-closure attack in patients with plateau iris syndrome after cataract extraction. Argon laser peripheral iridoplasty and cataract extraction have been used to reduce the occurrence of acute angle-closure attack in plateau iris syndrome although the risk cannot be completely eliminated. There is no consensus on the long term management of ...

PURPOSE Retinal ischemia and reperfusion injuries (IRI) permanently affect neuronal tissue and function by apoptosis and inflammation due to the limited regenerative potential of neurons. Recently, evidence emerged that the noble gas Argon exerts protective properties, while lacking any detrimental or adverse effects. We hypothesized that Argon inhalation after IRI would exert antiapoptotic eff...

The possibility to conduct simulations of homogeneous nucleation of argon from a supersaturated vapor phase using a microcanonical or NVE ensemble is evaluated (NVE: number of particles N, volume V, and energy E are constant). In order to initiate a phase separation kinetic energy is removed from the system in one step which transfers the system into a supersaturated state. After this temperatu...
