The primary structure of the membranous segment of rabbit liver cytochrome b5 has been determined to be as follows: (Formula: see text), New methods were developed for the separation of peptide fragments. These methods, which are particularly useful for work with hydrophobic peptides, involved gel permeation chromatography and reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using et...

A procedure is described that uses high-pressure liquid chromatography for assay of gentamicin in serum. The technique involves extraction of gentamicin from serum by using a CM-Sephadex column and analysis by reverse-phase, ion-pair chromatography. Continuous-flow, post-column derivatization with o-phthaladehyde is used to form fluorescent products for detection. The possible scope of this met...

A postsynaptic neurotoxin was purified from Daboia russelli russelli venom using gel filtration, ion-exchange chromatography and reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The N-terminal sequence, molecular mass and pharmacological activities of the neurotoxin/cytotoxin indicate that it is a short-chain neurotoxin like that found in Elapid venom. This is the first report on the prese...

Mammalian cell proteins, modified post-translationally by derivatives of [3H]mevalonic acid, were subjected to methylation and sulfonium salt cleavage reactions previously used to release isoprenoids from cysteine residues in yeast peptides. The labeled isoprenoid extracted into chloroform comigrated with farnesol through a series of chromatography steps including Sep-Pak C-18 fractionation, si...

Diosmin and hesperidin are natural flavonoid glycosides found in various plant materials, mainly in citrus fruits in different concentrations. Diosmin for pharmaceutical use is obtained mainly semi-synthetically from hesperidin. Hesperidin often accompanies diosmin as a natural impurity in different pharmaceutical formulations; therefore, a simple, fast and precise method for the simultaneous a...

An α-glucosidase inhibitor was developed from Aspergillus oryzae N159-1, which was screened from traditional fermented Korean foods. The intracellular concentration of the inhibitor reached its highest level when the fungus was cultured in tryptic soy broth medium at 27℃ for five days. The inhibitor was purified using a series of purification steps involving ultrafiltration, Sephadex G-25 gel p...

Avilamycin is an antibiotic complex produced by cultures of the organism Streptomyces viridochromogenes, strain NRRL 2860. These compounds belong to the orthosomycin family of antibiotics. Structural composition of the major avilamycins and several minor avilamycins are known. Nine additional minor avilamycins, designated F through N, have been isolated via semi-preparative silica gel or revers...

carbon disulfide is used predominantly in the manufacture. it has affects the nervous system. in this study, the applicability of spme as a passive sampler for determination of carbon disulphide in air was studied. effect of sampler and environmental parameters on uptake of carbon disulphide was studied as well. four fibers were tested to select the best sampler for determine carbon disulfide i...

background and objective: reduced fat cheese often exhibits poor sensory quality due to the reduction of fat, which plays a critical role in flavor and texture. therefore, there is the challenge to produce a reduced fat cheese with improved sensory attributes and texture that is also comparable to its full-fat counterpart. the main objective of this research was to investigate the effect of dif...
