The molecular-weight distribution of glycosaminoglycans

The molecular-weight distribution of glycosaminoglycans.

1. A rapid and sensitive method for the accurate estimation of the molecular-weight distribution of keratan sulphate and chondroitin sulphate isolated from adult bovine nasal septum and intervertebral disc is described. The method utilizes gel chromatography of reductively labelled glycosaminoglycan and end-group estimation of number-average molecular weight for each fraction across the peak of...

Rheological Method for Determining Molecular Weight and Molecular Weight Distribution

Calculation of Molecular Weight Distribution from Molecular Weight Moments in Free Radical Polymerization

A novel method is presented for the calculation of weight chain length distribution in free radical polymerization of vinyl monomers. In the proposed method, polymerization kinetic equations and molecular weight moment equations are used in conjunction with a function that defines the weight fraction of polymer in a finite chain length interval. The entire range of molecular weight is divided i...

Weight distribution of the crown-weight space

We derive a formula that gives the weight distribution of finite-dimensional vector spaces over a finite field equipped with crown-weight. © 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Intracellular Distribution of Low Molecular Weight Rna in Chironomus Tentans

Low molecular weight RNA species are described in isolated nuclear components and cytoplasm of salivary gland cells of Chironomus tentans. In addition to 4S and 5S RNA and RNA in the 4-5S range previously described, at least three other components in the range below 16S are present. RNA, the molecular weight of which was estimated to 2.3 x 10(5) and designed 10S RNA, can be observed only in nuc...
