A proton exchange (Nafion-117), a cation exchange (Ultrex CMI7000), an anion exchange (Fumasep FAD), and a bipolar (FumasepFBM) membrane have been studied to evaluate the principle suitability of ion exchange membranes as separators between the anode and the cathode compartment of biological fuel cells. The applicability of these membranes is severely affected by the neutral pH, and the usually...
A photoluminescent detection method for nitrite with high selectivity and sensitivity using carbon nanodots (CNDs) is demonstrated. The selectivity of nitrite is accomplished by a highly specific diazotization reaction between nitrite and p-phenylenediamine (p-PDA). In the presence of nitrite, p-PDA easily reacts to form the diazonium cation in the acidic aqueous solution. By alkalization of th...
HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins) are widely used to treat hypercholesterolemia. Among the adverse effects associated with these drugs are statin-associated myopathies, ranging from asymptomatic elevation of serum creatine kinase to fatal rhabdomyolysis. Fluvastatin-induced fatal rhabdomyolysis has not been previously reported. We describe here a patient with liver cirrhosis who experience...
We have previously demonstrated the involvement of carbonic anhydrase (CA) in larval mosquito midgut physiology. In this study, we used Hansson's histochemistry to examine the distribution of the enzyme in the midgut of Aedes aegypti, Aedes albopictus, Culex quinquefasciatus, Culex nigripalpus, Ochlerotatus taeniorhynchus, Anopheles albimanus and Anopheles quadrimaculatus adult mosquitoes. Addi...
Camgaroos are yellow fluorescent protein derivatives that hold promise as transgenically encoded calcium sensors in behaving animals. We expressed two versions of camgaroo in Drosophila mushroom bodies using the galactosidase-4 (GAL4) system. Potassium depolarization of brains expressing the reporters produces a robust increase in fluorescence that is blocked by removing extracellular calcium o...
Dendritic cells (DCs) continuously scavenge their environment to capture invading pathogens for presentation to T cells. To increase the antigen presentation potential, DCs are equipped with several mechanisms that reduce antigen degradation. Alkalization of the endosomal and phagosomal compartments by reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by NADPH oxidases is one of these mechanisms. In neutr...
Sperm guidance is controlled by chemical and physical cues. In many species, Ca(2+) bursts in the flagellum govern navigation to the egg. In Arbacia punctulata, a model system of sperm chemotaxis, a cGMP signaling pathway controls these Ca(2+) bursts. The underlying Ca(2+) channel and its mechanisms of activation are unknown. Here, we identify CatSper Ca(2+) channels in the flagellum of A. punc...
The red fluorescent protein, DsRed, recently cloned from coral Discosoma sp. has one of the longest fluorescence waves and one of the most complex absorbance spectra among the family of fluorescent proteins. In this work we found that with time DsRed fluorescence decreases under mildly acidic conditions (pH 4.0-4.8) in a pH-dependent manner, and this fluorescence inactivation could be partially...
