Lipides et inflammations

Extraction et fractionnement des lipides sur les protéines sériques préalablement précipitées

Colorimetric determination of blood lipides.

Extraction-As the oxidation is essentially non-specific, the plasma extract must be as free of non-lipide reducing substances as possible. All solvents should be tested occasionally for reducing residues remaining after evaporation, and redistilled if necessary. Ether should be maintained peroxide-free. The determinations reported here followed a conventional alcohol-ether extraction and subseq...

Nutrition and age-related eye diseases: the Alienor (Antioxydants, Lipides Essentiels, Nutrition et maladies OculaiRes) Study.

BACKGROUND Worldwide, degenerative eye diseases (age-related maculopathy (ARM), cataract, glaucoma) are the main causes of visual impairment and blindness, which contribute to disability in the elderly. Mainly three types of nutritional factors are investigated for their potential protection against eye ageing: antioxidants; lutein and zeaxanthin (carotenoids which accumulate specifically in th...

Chronic Inflammations of Lymphatic Glands in Rangoon

The above is not difficult to understand when it is remembered how frequent and progressive tubercle of the lungs is in Rangoon, and how futile any treatment (including the open air treatment) is in its arrest. Excluding the evidently tubercular cases, a majority of other enlarged chronically inflamed lymphatic glands remains. They appear to be of syphilitic origin. While plenty of stress is la...

A study of lipides of Penicillium chrysogenum.

Relatively few studies have been made on the lipide metabolism of Penicillium chrysogenum, although large quantities of these compounds are used as antifoam agents in the production of penicillin. Goldschmidt and Koffler (1) demonstrated that unsaturated long chain fatty acids present in the antifoam were responsible for stimulation of penicillin yields, since many physiologically inert compoun...
