This paper studies the application of principal component analysis, multiple polynomial regression, and artificial neural network ANN techniques to the quantitative analysis of binary mixture of dye solution. The binary mixtures of three textile dyes including blue, red and yellow colors were analyzed by PCA-Multiple polynomial Regression and PCA-Artificial Neural network PCA-ANN methods. The o...

We report that the dye nile red, 9-diethylamino-5H-benzo[alpha]phenoxazine-5-one, is an excellent vital stain for the detection of intracellular lipid droplets by fluorescence microscopy and flow cytofluorometry. The specificity of the dye for lipid droplets was assessed on cultured aortic smooth muscle cells and on cultured peritoneal macrophages that were incubated with acetylated low density...

From Xenorhabdus luminescens XE-87.3 four variants were isolated. One, which produced a red pigment and antibiotics, was luminescent, and could take up dye from culture media, was considered the primary form (XE-red). A pink-pigmented variant (XE-pink) differed from the primary form only in pigmentation and uptake of dye. Of the two other variants, one produced a yellow pigment and fewer antibi...
