The existence of a memory effect for amine additives on polysaccharide chiral stationary phases has often been suggested, but not clearly demonstrated. Demonstration of this effect is made difficult by the uncertainty as to which analytes benefit from use of amine additives and, typically, an unclear history of column use. In this work, analytes were selected for differences in their behavior with and without additives. Columns were used with no prior history. A persistent memory effect was demonstrated on a CHIRALPAK AD-H column in hexane-based mobile phases. This effect was short-lived, with polar organic mobile phases. Memory was short-lived on a CHIRALCEL OJ-H column. Flushing with isopropanol was shown to remove most of the memory effect. Compounds expected to require amine additives on CHIRALCEL OD-H column did not. Acid treatment of the AD-H and OD-H columns changed their performance, which was subsequently restored by the incorporation of amine. 相似文献

The effect of xanthines on various microorganisms was studied. The antibacterial effect was not high; most of the test organisms could easily withstand a concentration of 2,500 μg/ml. Caffeine was more antibacterial than theophylline, and the latter more than theobromine. Caffeine citrate exhibited greater inhibitory effect than did pure caffeine. The effect was both bacteriostatic and bactericidal against susceptible organisms. The susceptibility of organisms to xanthines differed greatly even in related species. The morphology of Aerobacter aerogenes and A. cloacae was affected under the influence of caffeine; filamentation of cells followed sublethal doses. Potentiation was seen with antibiotics and caffeine; resistant strains were killed with a lower dose of drug in the presence of caffeine. This potentiating effect was pronounced with the tetracyclines; with streptomycin, the effect was the contrary. 相似文献

Effect of ecdysterone on glucose metabolism in vitro 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The aims of this study was to investigate whether ecdysterone is able to exert glucose-lowering effect on hepatocytes or stimulate the secretion of insulin. HepG2 cell line was used for glucose consumption (GC) studies. At moderate high glucose concentration (11.1 mmol/L), GC of HepG2 cells was increased by 44% to 77% with ecdysterone 1 x 10(-6) to 1 x 10(-4) mol/L, which was comparable to that with 1 x 10(-3) mol/L metformin. The glucose-lowering effect of ecdysterone decreased as the glucose concentration of medium increased. The maximal potency was reached in the presence of 5.5 mmol/L glucose, and the effect was disappeared as the glucose consumption was increased to 22.2 mmol/L. This effect was independent on insulin concentration, which was similar to that of metformin and was different from that of troglitazone, whose glucose-lowering effect was insulin-dependent. Troglitazone had a better antihyperglycemic potency than metformin when insulin was added. Simultaneously, a significant toxicity of troglitazone to HepG2 cells was observed. betaTC3 cells were not stimulated by ecdysterone, that is, no secretogogue effect of ecdysterone was observed. The results indicate that ecdysterone is able to exert the glucose-lowering effect in hepatocytes which is insulin-independent, but has no effect on insulin release. 相似文献

The growth-inhibiting effect of dexamethasone was estimated by the ability of the hormone to inhibit the proliferative activity of in vitro cultured hepatoma 22 cells. The effect of another steroid proliferation inhibitor, progesterone, was studied in primary cell cultures of human uterine carcinoma. The cytostatic effect of dexamethasone was observed only in slowly proliferating cells and was rapidly reversed by stimulation of cell division with fresh sera. Dexamethasone did not induce any conspicuous changes in the rate of 32P incorporation into hepatoma phospholipids. In 9 out of 14 human uterine carcinomas progesterone inhibited, whereas 17 beta-estradiol stimulated the 32P incorporation into phospholipids (phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylcholine); this effect was manifested already after 15-min incubation of cells with the hormone. The resistance of uterine carcinoma cells to steroids was paralleled, as a rule, with the increase in the basal level of 32P incorporation into the phospholipids typical of actively proliferating cells. It was assumed that the inhibition of phospholipid exchange rate is related to the earliest manifestations of the growth-inhibiting effect of steroid hormones, at least progestins. In its turn, stimulation of the proliferative activity of cells may relieve this effect of steroids, eventually resulting in a temporary decrease of the cell sensitivity to hormones. 相似文献

Dexamethasone in the medium perfusin isolated rabbit livers caused a fast-acting and reversible effect on liver pyruvate kinase. The effect was to lower th assayable V activity (units/g tissue) without changing the concentration (nmol/g enzyme protein). In effect, glucocorticoid lowered the specific activity (units/nmol of enzyme) by direct action on liver. The effect on liver pyruvate kinase is mediated by a relatively stable alteration; 30 min after perfusate (with steroid) was replaced by perfusate (without steroid), the effect remained strongly evident. 相似文献

Mice, inoculated with Salmonella typhimurium, either intraperitoneally (i.p.) or intragastrically (i.g.), developed a systemic infection with a high death rate within a few days after inoculation. Pretreatment of the mice with moderate concentrations of i.p. administered TNF-alpha 24 h before the administration of bacteria reduced the establishment of intracellular infection in the intestinal epithelial cells, and development of bacteremia. The mortality rate was reduced, and the survival time was extended by the same treatment. This effect of TNF-alpha was more pronounced against i.g. than against i.p. inoculated bacteria. The effect was dose dependent, thus concentrations above or below the optimal dose had less effect. No synergistic effect was seen if TNF-alpha was given in combination with interferon-gamma. These results indicate, that TNF-alpha may have a physiological effect in the host defence against facultatively intracellular Gram-negative bacteria. 相似文献

The effect of concanavalin A (Con A) on the adhesion of 8-day-old chick embryo fibroblasts (CEFs) to fibronectin (FN) and laminin (LM) was studied. Con A was shown to inhibit the spreading of CEF on a LM substrate. In contrast, no inhibition of CEF spreading on the FN substrate could be detected when the quantity of FN coated varied from 0.5 to 4 pmoles. The effect induced by Con A was specific, since it was abolished by 100 mM alpha-methylmannopyranoside. The inhibition of CEF spreading was only observed when the lectin was added during the 20 min following cell plating. In addition, the effect of Con A on CEF spreading on the LM substrate was shown to be dependent upon its presence at the cell surface, since under conditions which accelerate the uptake of the lectin, the effect on cell spreading is no longer detectable. Furthermore, the number of CEFs attached to LM was not modified by the lectin. The molecular weight of the isolated Con A binding sites revealed glycoproteins ranging from 30,000 to 72,000. On the other hand, these Con A binding sites did not interact with LM-Sepharose. Only a protein with a molecular weight of 68,000 which did not express affinity for Con A bound tightly to the LM-Sepharose. These data suggested that cell surface Con A binding sites do not interfere with the initial step of CEF adhesion to LM but play a key role during their spreading on this glycoprotein. 相似文献

The effect of shear stress on the viability of Chaetoceros muelleri was studied using a combination of a rheometer and dedicated shearing devices. Different levels of shear stress were applied
by varying the shear rates and the medium viscosities. It was possible to quantify the effect of shear stress over a wide
range, whilst preserving laminar flow conditions through the use of a thickening agent. The threshold value at which the viability
of algae was negatively influenced was between 1 and 1.3 Pa. Beyond the threshold value the viability decreased suddenly to
values between 52 and 66%. The effect of shear stress was almost time independent compared to normal microalgae cultivation
times. The main shear stress effect was obtained within 1 min, with a secondary effect of up to 8 min. 相似文献

With a view to optimise the interaction of crotalarin, a blood group A-specific lectin from the seeds of Crotalaria striata with fetuin the effect of various parameters on the reaction has been studied turbidimetrically. The formation of crotalarin-fetuin complex was dependent on time, temperature, pH and the ionic strength of the medium. The maximum turbidity appeared in 30 min at 20 degrees C and the pH optimum was 3.5. The binding constant (Ka) for crotalarin-fetuin interaction was 5.58 x 10(4) M-1 (pH 3.5) at 20 degrees C. Among the different inorganic salts tested, the cations with increasing concentrations had pronounced effect on binding. KCNS and KI, however, were noninhibitory. The turbidity slightly increased in presence of different sodium salts, whereas periodate and urea reduced the interaction. The different alcohols had no remarkable effect on the above reaction. 相似文献

The growth of a strain of Dipodascus aggrrgatus Francke-Grosmann was strongly promoted by the aliphatic aldehyde nonanal. The highest effect was found with 80–160 μmol of nonanal per 1. The growth-promoting activity of nonanal is principally the result of an ability to shorten the lag phase. Neither the maximum value for growth nor the growth rate seem to be increased. The growth-promoting activity of nonanal could be observed only if the cells used for inoculation were taken from a culture in the phase of accelerated growth. The highest growth-promoting activity was observed when the nonanal was added before inoculation, a large effect was still observed when it was added 24 hours after inoculation, but there was no effect when it was added 33 hours after inoculation. The growth-promoting activity of nonanal remained unchanged when a mixture of 15 vitamins and growth factors was given to the medium. Nonanol and nonanoic acid stimulated growth, although to a lower degree than nonanal. There was a gradual increase in the growth-promoting effect of nonanal as the pH of the medium was increased between 3.0 and 8.0, showing that this effect is most pronounced at the higher pH values. 相似文献

The effect of sodium novobiocin on Act. levoris, strain LIA 0868 producing levorin and levoristatin was studied. High lethal effect of the antibiotic on Act. levoris was found. The effect increased with a rise in the antibiotic concentration in the agar from 2 to 6 lambda/ml. The inhibitory effect of novobiocin on Act, levoris was evident from a marked increase in the number of morphologically changed colonies with a low level of levorin production. The selective effect of novobiocin on the organism producing levorin and levoristatin was evident from selection of variants with high levels of levoristatin production on media containing novobiocin. 相似文献

A study was made of the influence of sudden illumination micromovements of the eyes. Sudden contour illumination of the eye by a 15 degrees field with a crossing in the centre and a brightness of 100 nit reduced the amplitude of involuntary saccades and their frequency. The effect was particularly distinct with preliminary recording of the eye micromovement in complete darkness without a fixation point. In the case of fixation of a stationary point with one eye and of illumination of the other, the effect was also manifest, but it was less pronounced. During illumination of the eye with diffused light (through spectacles with frosted glasses) the effect of diminution of the saccade amplitude was smaller, though the brightness remained unchanged. A decrease in the saccade amplitude was practically not observed when the point was fixed at diffuse illumination. It has also been shown that with greater brightness of the fixation point (0.3; 25; 92 and 1000 nit), the amplitude and frequency of involuntary saccades diminish. The results attest that in choosing the conditions of work of the saccadic system two factors should be taken into consideration: the presence of the contours of the visible object and its brightness, the latter by itself having a lesser effect than the former. 相似文献

In experiments with mice bearing solid sarcoma 37 a study was conducted on the combined effect of radiation and inductors of endogenous interferon synthesis (IEIS), together with hyperthermia or together with an alkylating and carbomoilating agent, dimethinur. The effect was estimated by the tumor growth coefficient and by the number of animals with the regressed tumors. Po I. polyC was not shown to influence the efficiency of hyperthermia combined with radiation; dextransulphate and tiloron increased the radiosensitizing effect of hyperthermia. Dimethinur aggravated the effect of radiation, but with IEIS used together with dimethynur and radiation, the response of the tumor increased insignificantly as compared to the effect of IEIS together with radiation. 相似文献

Potentiation of colistin by sulphamethoxazole and sulphamethizole was demonstrated with 19 out of 20 strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This enhancement was bactericidal as well as bacteriostatic. Synergy between trimethoprim and sulphamethoxazole was also demonstrated with four strains of Ps. aeruginosa, but even when the two drugs were combined high concentrations of trimethoprim were still required to produce a bactericidal effect. Combinations of sulphamethoxazole and gentamicin appeared to be synergistic when the bacteriostatic effect was measured, but the combined bactericidal effect was indifference. The bactericidal and bacteriostatic effect of combinations of carbenicillin with sulphamethoxazole was also indifference. 相似文献

The effect of red and far-red treatment on chlorophyll synthesis in dark-grown bean leaves was studied at various ages. Although the effect was pronounced in the old leaves, no effect was observed in the young ones (4 days old). In the 5-day old leaves a measurable effect of red light pretreatment can be observed, whereas the far-red reversal effect was not observed. — The length of the dark period between the red pretreatment and the continuous illumination is also age dependent. Leaves older than 6 days show a maximum at about six hours, while in the young leaves the red light effect increases with the time of dark incubation up to the 24 hours tested. — The reversal effect of far-red light on protochlorophyllide regeneration was also examined. The far-red light has no reversal effect on leaves younger than 6 days old, while on the old leaves it has such an effect. 相似文献

Antiviral activity of RNA-ase isolated from the fermentation broth of Actinomyces rimosus was studied. The effect of the enzyme on multiplication of the viruses of vesicular stomatitis, Newcastle and cariolovaccine diseases was investigated. It was found that the enzyme was capable of suppressing reproduction of the vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) in the culture of chick fibroblast cells. The suppression level directly depended on the enzyme concentration and decreased with an increase in the infection multiplicity. The enzyme had no effect on multiplication of other viruses tested. RNA-ase decreased the infectious properties of the freshly isolated virus-containing material in concentrations showing the antiviral effect. Preliminary incubation of the cells with the enzyme resulted in suppression of the plaque formation by VSV. The RNA synthesis in such cultures treated with RNA-ase was somewhat lower. It was shown that the antiviral effect of RNA=ase was connected with its enzymic activity. RNA-ase has no antiviral effect in the experiments with mice infected with VSV. 相似文献
