1. After administration of 600mg of 3H-labelled aldosterone to human volunteers, 57 mg of homogeneous acid-labile conjugate was isolated from the urine and identified as aldosterone 18 beta-D-glucosiduronic acid. 2. Esterification and acetylation of the conjugate gave a tetra-acetate methyl ester, which, by measurement of the optical rotation and nuclear-magnetic-resonance spectrum, was shown t...

Alkyl β-d-xylopyranosides are highly surface active, biodegradable surfactants that can be prepared from hemicelluloses and are of interest for use as pharmaceuticals, detergents, agrochemicals, and personal care products. To gain further insights into their structure-property and structure-activity relationships, the present study synthesized a series of hydrocarbon (-C(6)H(13) to -C(16)H(33))...

The genus Fusobacterium was proposed by Knorr (1922) for the pointed, nonsporulating, gram-negative, anaerobic bacilli found in the oral cavity. On the basis of morphology, three species were named, Fusobacterium nucleatum, Fusobacterium polymorphum, and Fusobacterium plauti-vincentii. Similarly, Hine and Berry (1937) described three species, based primarily on morphological and cultural charac...

In this paper, I want to develop some concepts designed to capture the affective and relational undergirding ofpractice in areas where practice is creativc and constructive. Current conceptions of practice emphasize the habitual and mle-governed features of practice. Though much debate surrounds the exact specification of the relevant mies and habits (see most authors seem to agree that practic...

Ovalbumin, as the major component of egg-white, is a globular, biocompatible, nontoxic and biodegradable phosphoglyco protein. This protein with the molecular weight of 44.5 kDa, contains 385 residues of amino acids with isoelectric point (pI) of 4.5. Many purification procedures have been reported for egg-white proteins such as gel permeation and anion exchange chromatography. In this study, w...

A recent paper by Knorr et al. (2005a) suggested that the decomposition of resistant soil organic matter is more temperature sensitive than labile organic matter. In Knorr et al.’s (2005a) model, the reference decay rate was presumed to be same for all pools of soil carbon. We refit Knorr et al.’s (2005a) model but allow both the activation energy and the reference decay rate to vary among soil...
