The effect of sedimentation and microbial nitrogen regeneration in a plankton community: a simulation investigation

A computer simulation model was developed to investigate nitrogenfluxes associated with microbial interactions in plankton communities.A short time scale was used, appropriate to the build-up anddecline of phytoplankton blooms in temperate shelf waters aftera mixing or upwelling event. The model depicts a continuum ofevents, many of which have been observed in coastal, upwellingand oceanic systems, including two phytoplankton peaks correspondingto ‘new production’ and ‘regenerated production’.It predicts that nitrogen loss through sedimentation of phytoplanktonand faeces may result in a smaller bloom with a delayed onsetand prolonged duration. Microbial regeneration of nitrogen wasfound to be important in sustaining the middle stages of a phytoplanktonbloom, whereas micro- and meso-zooplankton regeneration occurredtowards the end of the bloom.     

Volatiles from the epicuticular wax of watercress (Rorippa nasturtium-aquaticum)

Volatiles from the epicuticular wax of watercress were collected by ether washing and examined using gas chromatographic and mass spectrometric analysi     

Beta-adrenergic mechanism of the radio-protective effect of isoproterenol in a mammalian cell culture

A specific beta-agonist, isoproterenol, increased the intracellular content of cyclic AMP and decreased the radiosensitivity of Chinese hamster fibroblasts. Beta-antagonist, propranolol, blocked the manifestation of the effect of isoproterenol. Isoproterenol did not affect either the intracellular level of cyclic AMP or the radiosensitivity of B-82 cells which had no beta-adrenoreceptors.     

A study of the occurrence of regulator secondary structures in globular proteins

The distribution of regular secondary structures, viz. α-helices and β-strands, along the length of over 70 properties whose secondary structural details have been reported, has been analysed. The occurrence of these regular structures tends to be a maximum at the N- and C-termini. Our analysis suggests that both these free ends could possibly serve as nucleating centers for secondary structures and could play an important role in the folding of proteins.     

A chemosystematic study of some geraniaceae

The flavonoids of five Geranium, fourteen Erodium and four Monsonia species were studied. Quercetin was the most common aglycone with lesse     

Factors controlling stem cell recirculation. 5. Modification of the effects of endogenous glucocorticoids on CFUs migration in T-deficient mice

It was shown that at a continuously increased level of endogenous glucocorticoids (injection of ACTH) in thymectomized and B mice the degree of inhibition of CFUs migration, that was observed in T-deficient mice without ACTH injection, did not increase. With T-deficiency the stimulatory effect of the hypocorticoid state (adrenalectomy) on the CFUs migration persisted but was less pronounced than in animals with intact thymus.
