The challenge associated with the use of synovial fluid for osteoarthritic proteome studies is optimization step, which involves depletion high abundant proteins from samples. objective this study was to develop a cost efficient and effective method remove albumin canine studies. Pooled samples were obtained clinically healthy dogs (n=5), no radiographic features osteoarthritis. acetone precipi...

Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) prevented diphtheria toxin from inhibiting the incorporation of [U-14C]-alanine into trichloroacetic acid precipitable material in HeLa cells. Ascorbic acid did not exhibit an effect on the adenosine diphosphate-ribosylation of amino acyl transferase II nor did it separate fragment A from fragment B in "nicked" toxin. A non-specific reducing agent, para-methylaminophen...

A study has been made of the distribution and metabolism of protein-bound hydroxyproline in an elongating tissue, the excised Avena coleoptile. The hydroxyproline-containing proteins of this tissue have been separated into 3 fractions on the basis of their solubilities. The cytoplasmic, trichloroacetic acid-insoluble proteins (S-fraction) contain the bulk of the proline of the cells but only 20...

DURING the course of experimental work with various methods for the determination of total protein in blood-plasma and serum, an endeavour was made to weigh the protein resulting from precipitation with trichloroacetic acid followed by washing with alcohol and ether. The results, compared with the direct gravimetric method of Knipping and Kowitz [1924] as modified by Starlinger and Hartl [1925]...

“It is indeed most gratifying to learn 31 years after publishing my paper that it is one of the most cited scientific papers. It is not entirely surprising to me that this should be the case since methods are the backbone of all scientific research. Consequently, my method for the extraction of nucleic acids from tissues and for their analysis might be expected to be referred to more frequently...

A high performance lipuid chromatographic method for the determination of urinary trichloroacetic acid, a metabolite of trichloroethylene, is described. A stainless steel column packed with Hitachi gel 2618 (H form) was used and the mobile phase was one per cent aqueous phosphoric acid. Urine can be analyzed directly without any solvent extraction or pretreatment. The minimal detection limit wa...

BACKGROUND Ingrown nails are a very common problem. There are different stages of disease and diverse therapeutic options. Phenol and sodium hydroxide are commonly used agents for chemical matricectomy but both frequently entail excessive healing times. OBJECTIVE This prospective study aimed mainly to evaluate the efficacy of partial nail avulsion and selective chemical cauterization of the m...

Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) has been implicated as an airborne pollutant responsible for adverse effects on forest health. There is considerable debate as to whether TCA observed in trees and forest soils is derived from atmospheric deposition or from in situ production. This experiment reports the results from treating 4-year-old Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis (Bong.) Carr) plants in a greenhou...
