A method for sequencing DNA by using a difluoresceinated primer and laser excitation is described. Dideoxy protocols have been determined that provide sequences for 600 bases starting with base 1 with less than 1% error in a single load. Electrophoresis is at 20 W and the bands are detected 24 cm from the bottom of the loading well with a scanning fluorescence detector. Bands are imaged on a TV...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Phaffia rhodozyma is a red yeast which produces astaxanthin as the major carotenoid pigment. Astaxanthin is thought to reduce the incidence of cancer and degenerative diseases in man. It also enhances the immune response and acts as a free-radical quencher, a precursor of vitamin A, or a pigment involved in the visual attraction of animals as mating partners. The impac...

N-(2-Chloro-6-methylphenyl)-2-[[6-[4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazinyl]-2-methyl-4-pyrimidinyl]amino]-5-thiazolecarboxamide (dasatinib, Sprycel, BMS-354825; Bristol-Myers Squibb, Princeton, NJ) is a potent protein kinase inhibitor to treat chronic myeloid leukemia. In vivo studies have shown that the primary oxidative metabolites of dasatinib are M4 (N-dealkylation), M5 (N-oxidation), M6 (carboxyl...

TG572 RFLP Probe: Five primers were designed around the RFLP probe on chromosome 7: P572F1, P572F2, P572F3, P572R1, and P572R2 (Table 1). All possible primer combinations produced a strong band with Heinz 1706 DNA between 600 bp and 1000 bp (Fig. 2). All of the primer combinations produced single bands with the exception of P572F2/P572R1, which produced two bands one at 400 bp and one at 900 bp...

This study investigated age-related differences in dynamic balance control and its connection to reflexes and explosive isometric plantar flexor torque in 19 males (9 Young aged 20-33 yr, 10 Elderly aged 61-72 yr). Dynamic balance was measured during Slow (15 cm/s) and Fast (25 cm/s) anterior and posterior perturbations. H/M-ratio was measured at 20% of maximal M-wave (H/M20%) 10, 30, and 90 ms...

Dynamic balance was measured during Slow (15cm/s) and Fast (25cm/s) 28 anterior and posterior perturbations. H/M-ratio was measured at 20% of maximal M-wave 29 (H/M20%) 1...
