- A method for the direct recording of the PEP efflux from isolated mitochondria is described.
- This method has been used to show the stimulation of PEP efflux by externally added Mn++ ions.
- Valinomycin, uncoupler and oleate were also shown to stimulate PEP efflux.
- Valinomycin caused an increase in the internal concentration of both PEP and citrate.
- The results indicate that the major pathway of PEP synthesis in isolated mitochondria is via PEP carboxykinase and the results do not call for an unknown pathway of metabolism.
- Two interactions between PEP and citrate are described; competition for the mitochondrial interior and the stimulation of PEP production by citrate.

Antioxidant enzymes together with trace elements in 26 patients with chronic renal failure treated with hemodialysis and 25 healthy subjects were investigated. Superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx) in plasma and erythrocytes were examined immediately before and after hemodialysis. The results are summarized as follows:
- A significant decrease in plasma SOD, CAT, and GSHPx and erythrocyte GSHPx were found in patients before hemodialysis.
- Erythrocyte CAT and GSHPx were significantly lower in the patients after hemodialysis than in the controls.
- Plasma GSHPx was significantly higher after a single hemodialysis than before hemodialysis.
- A good correlation between erythrocyte SOD and copper (Cu) in patients before hemodialysis was found.
- A good correlation of GSHPx in erythrocytes and plasma was found before hemodialysis, whereas an even better correlation was found after hemodialysis.
- Abnormalities of trace elements were found in hamodialyzed patients.
- There is indirect evidence for increased oxidizing stress in uremic patients with hemodialysis. Dialysis treatment may improve some abnormalities (e.g., Hb, P), but may also induce some deleterious effects of free radicals or lipid peroxidation.

- The neutral red technique was employed to study the rate of filtration in Katelysia opima.
- The weight specific water filtration was found to be greater for younger clams compared to the older ones.
- The rate of water filtration increased with decreasing salinity.
- Water filtration was found to increase as temperature increased, reaching a maximum at 35°C. but then sharply decreasing at 39°C.
- Light had no significant effect on the rate of filtration.
- Suspended matter was found to affect the rate of water filtration.
- The rate of filtration was low at high pH and high in low pH.
- The rate of water filtration was found to be faster during high tide than during low tide.
- The presence of the parasitic crab, Pennotheris sp., in the mantle cavity of clams had a marked effect on the particle filtration.
- Accidental cut of the siphon tips had no effect on the rate of filtration.

The following scheme lists the problems which have been and will continue to be encountered in grazing experiments on natural particle assemblages. In some cases there are solutions, but many of the problems listed below remain intractable. To solve them will require innovative approaches, most probably combining the use of particle counters with other techniques to approach the problem to be solved from several angles at once. Variance between samples due to - statistical causes (especially caused by large particles) and - differences between experimental bottles and between experimentals and controls at start of experiment. Shifts in particle distribution during experiment due to - increase in small particles - growth of bacteria and other organisms due to excretion of grazers and - breakage during handling by grazers into fragments. Processes, independent of grazing, leading to changes in particle size distribution due to - primary production - grazing by additional components and - bacterial growth on detrital particles and the formation of detrital flocs. 相似文献

Pharmacological and toxicological studies undertaken on drugs that affect the brain are frequently performed in disparate species under various experimental conditions, at doses often greatly in excess of those expected to be administered to humans, and the findings are extrapolated implicitly or explicitly with scant regard to differences in the biodisposition of the drugs. Such considerations are necessary since:
- Species;
- Strain;
- Gender;
- Route;
- Dose;
- Frequency and time of administration;
- Temperature;
- Coadministration of drugs; and
- Surgical manipulation

- Chlorides have followed the total carbonates while dissolved oxygen and pH have shown no relation.
- Microcystis has followed no definite pattern of diurnal movement.
- All crustaceans, some of the rotifers andTrachelomonas perform considerable diurnal movement in the course of a twenty four hour period.

- The main pathway of the anaerobic metabolism of l-malate in Saccharomyces bailii is catalyzed by a l-malic enzyme.
- The enzyme was purified more than 300-fold. During the purification procedure fumarase and pyruvate decarboxylase were removed completely, and malate dehydrogenase and oxalacetate decarboxylase were removed to a very large extent.
- Manganese ions are not required for the reaction of malic enzyme of Saccharomyces bailii, but the activity of the enzyme is increased by manganese.
- The reaction of l-malic enzyme proceeds with the coenzymes NAD and (to a lesser extent) NADP.
- The K m-values of the malic enzyme of Saccharomyces bailii were 10 mM for l-malate and 0.1 mM for NAD.
- A model based on the activity and substrate affinity of malic enzyme, the intracellular concentration of malate and phosphate, and its action on fumarase, is proposed to explain the complete anaerobic degradation of malate in Saccharomyces bailii as compared with the partial decomposition of malate in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Androgenic hormones seem to be of beneficial effects on sports performance: - they increase motivation, will, aggressiveness, resistance to the stress and to the fatigue, leading to an increase of the training quantity, - they increase bone mineralization and probably mechanical resistance, - they stimulate the bone marrow and so, with the erythropoietin, the erythropoiesis, - they increase the tendancy to hyperglycemia, but with a decrease of the tolerance to the glucose, - they stimulate the fatty acids mobilization from the adipose tissue, for their utilization in the muscle during the exercise, - they participate, for the trained sportmen, to a better gestion of the muscle glycogen storage: their utilization during exercise is decreased, - they increase the lean body mass, with an increase of the protein synthesis and a decrease of the protein catabolism, leading also to an increase of the muscle force under training. There is no beneficial effect upon the tendons, - they have an immunomodulation action. 相似文献

- The total protein, fat and glycogen contents were estimated from the edible clam, P. laterisulca. Seasonal variations in these constituents along with the water content were studied.
- The gonad index in P. laterisulca was found to increase during the ripe condition and in winter (December–January) and decrease on spawning.
- A relatively high water content was obtained during monsoon (June to September). This might be due to the loss of salts and gain of water in low salinities.
- Protein content varied with the reproductive cycle of the clam. The level reached its peak in the mature stage and declined on spawning. Immature clams showed less protein content than gravid ones.
- Lipid content started to increase as the gametogenesis commenced, reached its peak in fully mature condition (August) and sharply declined due to the shedding of gametes during spawning.
- Glycogen content was high during the period of active gameto-genesis (May–June). A sharp decrease took place when the clams were fully ripe (July). The glycogen might have been utilized in the formation of active ripe gametes.
- After starvation for twelve days, total protein and fat contents remained constant, while glycogen content decreased by 66.82%. The water content increased by 4.67%.
- Seasonal variation in the organic constituents are discussed in relation to the reproductive cycle of the clam.

- The seasonal variation in the water, protein, fat and glycogen contents of the mussel, Mytilus viridis has been studied for the year March, 1974 to March, 1975.
- The water level increased during the monsoon season and decreased in summer.
- The level of protein, fat and glycogen showed correlation with the reproductive cycle of the mussel.
- The protein level was high when the mussels were mature and dropped during the breeding period.
- During sex change from male to female in May the protein level remained high whereas during sex change from female to male in October and November it was low.
- The fat level was high in mature mussels and declined on spawning.
- The glycogen level was at its peak in immature mussels and low in mature.

- Cell-free extracts from vegetative cells and developing myxospores of Myxococcus xanthus were found to contain similar amounts of proteolytic activity, approximately 80% of which was due to one or more neutral metal proteases.
- Sixty per cent of the proteolytic activity was particulate.
- The specific activity of the proteases was high throughout all stages of myxospore formation and displayed small increases in activity at two stages of development: (1) during cell shortening and (2) immediately following the conversion to spheres. The first peak in activity was apparent in assays conducted at pH 8 or 10 whereas the second peak was obvious only at pH 6.
- A mutant which develops into myxospores only after a lag of approximately 7–8 h possessed levels of proteases similar to the wild type and displayed a peak in proteolytic activity after a delay of 7–8 h.
- Low levels of serine protease activity were occasionally detected in both vegetative cells and myxospores; no sulfhydryl proteases were detectable in either cell type.
- Extracellular proteases accumulated in the medium throughout myxospore development but differed from the intracellular proteases in pH optima and sensitivity to inhibitors.

The vacuum erection device (VED) is a nonsurgical alternative for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. This method is based on 2 phenomena:
- an erection-like state occurs when the penis is placed in a vacuum
- this state can be maintained by a constricting band placed around the base of the penis
- blood flow into the penis decreases
- penile skin temperature falls
- congestion of extra-corporeal penile tissues occurs
- the penis pivots at its base
- the ejaculate is trapped in the proximal urethra

Synthetic sulfuric acid is used in a wide range of applications in fine chemical industry. Despite an already performed optimization of input amounts, used sulfuric acid is still a quantitatively important waste by-product. As a result, different utilization technologies for used sulfuric acid exist: ? the starting point for a comparative LCA of the above mentioned utilization technologies at a concrete situation is explained, in a work of Ciba-Geigy Corp. ? a short summary of the comparative LCA is presented ? lessons learned from performing the LCA and using it in a decision process are described. 相似文献

- ACh, dopamine, noradrenaline, 5-HT,l-glutamate, and GABA are widely distributed in cephalopods and probably all function as neurotransmitters; octopamine also occurs and at one site is known to act as a neuromodulator.
- Several peptides are also present, as well as nitric oxide synthase.
- In the brain and sense organs cholinergic, aminergic, serotonergic and glutamatergic systems seem to be the most important.
- ACh is also active in the gut, vascular system and some body muscles: it is generally inhibitory. The ACh receptors are similar to the vertebrate nicotinic type.
- The catecholamines are important in the gut and vascular system: they are generally excitatory. The NA receptors are like the α-adrenergic subtype of vertebrates, but the nature of the DA and OA receptors is less certain.
- 5-HT is important in the gut but is endogenous in some chromatophore nerves and acts on receptors that seem like the vertebrate 5-HT1 type.
- l-glutamate is an excitatory transmitter at the chromatophore (and probably at other) nerve-muscle junctions and is an extremely strong candidate for being the excitatory transmitter at the squid giant synapse. There are NMDA receptors on Schwann-cells but the receptors on neurons and muscles are like the vertebrate kainate type.
- Little is known about the mode of action of cephalopod peptides; nor has it ever been shown that they co-exist with conventional transmitters in these animals.
- The structure of one (FMRFamide) receptor has been elucidated, but apart from this nothing is known of the molecular biology of receptors in cephalopods.

- The phytoplankton cycle off Lawson's Bay, Waltair follows a bimodal pattern with a major peak during March–May; a minor peak during October–November months and with a low production during the summer months i.e., June–August.
- During the summer months of 1957, 1958, 1960 and 1962 dumping of dredged spoil from the entrance channel of the harbour into the sea resulted in a natural enrichment of waters.
- Following this enrichment, there was a qualitative and quantitative increase in the phytoplankters thus leading to the development of a bloom.
- Only Thalassiosira subtilis and Chaetoceros curvisetus commonly bloomed during the four years.
- The increase in gross production which varied from 3–13 fold and the high photosynthesis-respiration ratios 5.1 to 10.5 indicated that the bloom populations were in a healthy state.
- The decrease of the populations to the initial levels suggests that some unknown factor, other than those investigated must have been operating.
- Consequences of eutrophication of different origins on stimulation of phytoplankton production are briefly discussed.
