The human leukemia cell line K562 was derived from a patient with chronic granulocytic leukemia. This cell line has subsequently been shown to possess phenotypic markers typical of erythroid and myeloid cells. Using a rabbit antiserum directed against purified platelet glycoproteins (PGPs), we have obtained evidence for the constitutive expression of PGPs on the surface of K562 cells. PGPs expr...

The action of thrombin on intact human platelets has been studied with the aid of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecylsulfate. A single major membrane protein band with a molecular weight of 190,000 disappears after thrombin treatment, while a new membrane protein with a molecular weight of 107,000 appears. This may represent hydrolysis of the thrombin-sensitive protein. When pl...

The objective of this study was to characterize and compare the water and salt soluble proteins from rat liver and muscle by using sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and sodium dodecyl sulphate polymer-filled capillary gel electrophoresis (SDS-CGE). The evaluation and comparison of separations realized with the use of both techniques was done. It was found tha...

Sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) and sodium tripolyphosphate (STP) act to remove stained pellicle from dentition and loosen deposits on tooth surfaces that may become cariogenic over time. This study investigated how SDS and STP impact the salivary pellicle adsorbed onto hydroxyapatite and silica sensors using a dual polarisation interferometer and a quartz-crystal microbalance with dissipation. A...

The effect of sodium dodecylsulphate (SDS), sodium alkilbenzenesulphonate (ABSNa) and sulphosuccinates IOP5 and N5, present in different concentrations, on the kinetics of desulfurication conducted with the use of Desulfotomaculum ruminis bacteria was analysed. As follows from the determined activity of the microorganisms, the presence of SDS and ABSNa inhibits the process of desulfurication. T...

Sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis This procedure separates poplypeptides according to their size; as it is most commonly used proteins are resolved as a consequence of differences in their rates of migration. SDS/PAGE systems use buffers that contain a detergent, sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), which denatures proteins. In a solution of SDS most multi-subunit proteins ar...

The interaction of sodium n-dodecyl sulphate (SDS) with histones in phosphate buffer pH 6.4 has been studied spectroscopically and by equilibrium dialysis. The enthalpies of interaction and the spectroscopic data suggest different structural stability for histones-SDS interaction. The linear relation between enthaly and absorbtion was determined by the equation of m= , where m is the sta...

Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was employed to study the sorption behaviors of cellulases on microcrystalline celluloses and hardwood pulp. The adsorption and recovery of cellulases from Aspergillus niger and Trichoderma reesei were investigated at 25 °C. Cellulase recovery was conducted by rinsing adsorbed enzymes with sodium acetate buffer, Milli-Q water,...
