probing the role of substrate conformation in phospholipase a2 action on aggregated phospholipids using constrained phosphatidylcholine analogues.	phospholipase a2s hydrolyze aggregated phospholipid substrates much more rapidly than dispersed monomeric ones. whether this is a consequence of interface-associated conformational changes of the enzyme or of the substrate, or of both, remains a key question in lipid enzymology. this problem is addressed herein using a rationally designed probe of substrate conformation. (1,3/2)-1-o-(phosphorylcholine)-2,3-o-dihexanoylcyclopentane-1,2,3 -triol is a novel short chain phosphatidylcholine analogue ...	2012	3417646
spinal cord penetration of intrathecally administered cytarabine and methotrexate: a quantitative autoradiographic study.	carcinomatous meningitis is an increasingly common complication of systemic cancer. treatment usually involves the use of intrathecal methotrexate or cytarabine, which have been reported to be toxic to the spinal cord. this study was performed to determine the penetration and distribution of intrathecally administered chemotherapy within the spinal cord. tritiated methotrexate and cytarabine were administered intraventricularly and by lumbar puncture to new zealand white rabbits. the extent and ...	1988	3418727
[surgical treatment of primary chronic pancreatitis].	surgical methods of treatment of chronic alcoholic pancreatitis must be chosen with special reference to the state of the duct and parenchyma of the pancreas. treatment of alcoholic patients should be performed with the participation of psychiatrists.	2012	3424549
hemolytic activity of and lethal toxin production by environmental strains of vibrio parahaemolyticus.	repeated subculturing of kanagawa-negative strains of vibrio parahaemolyticus on wagatsuma agar induced the production of a hemolysin which was not the thermostable direct hemolysin. crude hemolysin exhibited a 30 to 40% lethal toxicity in mice after intraperitoneal injection. a 21-kilodalton protein band was observed with all the environmental isolates in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. results suggested that a certain percentage of environmental strains of v. parahae ...	1987	3426228
alcohol and ambience: social and environmental determinants of intake and mood.	an experiment was conducted in which 66 male subjects were given access to alcohol (20% vol.) and fruit juice to be mixed and tasted ad lib. a factorial design included social vs. solitary drinking conditions, laboratory vs. informal setting, and variable exposure to music. the amount of ethanol consumed (g/kg body weight) was used as an unobtrusive measure of preferred intake. the reciprocal relationship between mood and consumption was analyzed by lisrel. while euphoria has usually been percei ...	2012	3426705
application of pvd tin coating to co-cr-mo based surgical implants.	the requirements for successful joint arthroplasty are particularly exacting; a balanced combination of mechanical properties together with good biocompatibility are essential. co-cr based alloys have been used for many years on account of their relative inertness, good load bearing properties and excellent wear resistance. there is, however, concern that a slow accumulation of metal ions such as cobalt and chromium can lead to adverse clinical reactions; modern cementless fixation techniques ma ...	2012	3427147
brain thelohanellosis due to thelohanellus oculileucisci (myxozoa: myxosporea) in gobio gobio.	the first case of a thelohanellus infection in the brain of gudgeons (gobio gobio) is described. the infection was found on three localities in southern bohemia, czechoslovakia. the spores measured 13.2-14.4 x 6.3-7.1 micron. the reasons are discussed for which the species was identified as t. oculileucisci trojan, 1909.	2012	3428769
specificity of a mycobacterium kansasii phenolic glycolipid (mycoside a) immunoserum.	the specificity of mycobacterium kansasii anti-mycoside a antiserum prepared in rabbits injected with purified samples of the phenolic glycolipid was evaluated by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. chloroform-methanol extracts from representative strains of 23 mycobacterial species and 50 strains of m. kansasii showed that all strains of m. kansasii and the representative strain of m. gastri formed the antigen, whereas none of the remaining species (including m. leprae) formed it. consequentl ...	1987	3429620
methods to assess airborne concentrations of cotton dust.	assessment of concentrations of airborne cotton dust in the factory is necessary to determine adherence to applicable permissible exposure limits (pels) on a day-to-day basis, as well as for investigatory studies of an epidemiological nature. the latter are required on an ongoing basis to determine the adequacy of pels to prevent disease in the exposed population. a strategy of sampling includes considerations of the numbers of samples to be obtained for statistical validity and the locations of ...	2012	3434562

staff turnover as a function of performance in a public residential facility.	the relationship between employee turnover and performance was measured for 144 leavers and 144 stayers across 32 positions in a large institution for mentally retarded people. performance ratings for employees leaving the organization were significantly lower than for those who stayed. these performance differences occurred most significantly with involuntary dismissals and among direct-care technicians who comprise a major part of the institution's work force. the overall results suggest that ...	2012	3434588
distribution and significance of heterotrophic marine bacteria with antibacterial activity.	bacteria with antibacterial activity were isolated from seawater, sediments, phytoplankton, and zooplankton of suruga, sagami, and tokyo bays and from soft corals and sponges collected from the taiwan coast. of the 726 strains isolated, 37 showed antibacterial activity against either vibrio parahaemolyticus (atcc 17802) or staphylococcus aureus (p209). sediment harbored the lowest number of these forms of bacteria, and those from tokyo bay did not show any activity. attached isolates showed grea ...	1987	3435149
