We have investigated the effects of glucocorticoid treatment on lipid lateral diffusion and cholesterokphospholipid ratios in the plasma mem branes of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-responsive murine B-cell leuke mia (BCL,). Exposure to LPS for 24 h at concentrations of 50 ¿tg/ml, 100 Mg/ml, and 250 Mg/ml caused a 42% reduction in the lateral diffusion of the lipid probe 3,3'-dioctadecylindocarb...

This research evaluated the efficiency of combined anaerobic-aerobic processes for the treatment of slaughterhouse wastewater. The anaerobic reactor consists of a 3.95 L Plexiglas column with 60 mm diameter and 140 cm height. The cylindrical particles of polyvinyl chloride with 2 mm diameter and 1250 kg m-3 density packed to 60 cm of column were used as biomass saving material. The d...

We investigated the effect of partial replacement Cd by M=Au and Zn in crystal structure 1/1 Tsai-type quasicrystal approximant (AC) GdCd6. Compositionally homogeneous single samples Gd(Cd0.87Zn0.13(1))6 Gd(Cd0.80Au0.20(1))6 were grown from melts Gd5(Cd0.8Zn0.2)100 Gd1(Cd0.9Au0.1)100, respectively, isolated centrifugation. The M for substitution GdCd6 is accompanied with a sizeable reduction cu...

On heating the hydrated complexes 18-Crown[6].M[H(2)PO(4)].xH(2)O (x= 2 for M = K, Rb; x= 1.5 for M = Cs), quantitatively prepared by mechanical mixing of crystalline 18-Crown[6] and M[H(2)PO(4)], to ca. 60 degrees C, water loss takes place, accompanied by the extrusion of the crown ether from the crystalline complex and followed by reconstruction of the inorganic phase M[H(2)PO(4)](M = K, Rb, ...
