Identification of Tissue Distribution and Regulation of Bovine Stearoyl-Coa Desaturase by Hormones and Nutrients
… conducted to investigate the tissue distribution of stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1 (SCD) and the regulation of SCD1 protein expression by dietary fat, insulin, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), and linoleic acid (cis-9, cis-12 18:2). The first study examined tissue distribution of SCD1 protein in …

Determining biological roles of four unique Vernicia fordii acyl-CoA Binding Proteins
… a high-value seed oil. Approximately 80% of tung oil is α-eleostearic acid, which has a high degree of unsaturation thus giving it properties as a drying oil. The identification of the biological components in tung is imperative to further the knowledge of its processes. Four unique tung …

Molecular distillation studies of several fatty acids
… centrifugal molecular stills are capable of effecting separations and purifications economically impossible by any other means. Molecular distillation has found wide commercial application in the separation and purification of such normally non-distillable, high molecular weight, thermally …

Part I, Preliminary investigation of one-hundred organic compounds as possible colorimetric reagents ; Part II, Solubility of the alkaline earth salts of some higher fatty acids
We may summarize the purposes of this investigation as follows: A report on this investigation was made to Dr. John H. Yoe of the University of Virginia in order to see what reactions he considered to be of analytical significance and should be further investigated. He considers only three to be of …

THE PHOTOCHEMISTRY OF POLYENYL RADICALS AND ITS APPLICATION TO UHMWPE FOR USE IN ARTIFICIAL CARTILAGE
The use of UV light as an alternative to thermal treatments above the melting point (150 °C) to remove free radicals in irradiated UHMWPE was explored. It was found that, in contrast to the allyl free radical which is converted by 258 nm light to alkyl free radicals, polyenyl radicals are not …

Electrospray Fundamentals and Non-Covalent Peptide-Lipid Interactions as Studied by Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Reonance Mass Spectrometry
… within the metal capillary and Taylor cone of the electrospray (ES) device. Results show that the measured potential difference increases as the internal probe travels toward the ES capillary exit, with values rising sharply as the base of the Taylor cone is penetrated. Higher conductivity …

Manipulation of ring strain and antiaromaticity in the design and synthesis of unique optoelectronic materials
… encourages electron delocalization. Many of these systems consist of fused benzenoid or heterocyclic aromatic rings. Less frequently, however, PAHs are reported with character that alternates between the aromaticity of benzene fragments and the antiaromaticity of a nonbenzenoid moiety. Due …

Development of analytical systems and monitoring of VOCs emissions during polymer processing
… (VOCs) emissions during thermal degradation of polymers. This was used to estimate organic emissions from both virgin polymer resins and commingled plastics. The effects of process parameters, i. e., temperature, heating rate and residence time, were also studied. Significant VOCs emissions …

Biochemical composition of mature winged beans, Psophocarpus tetragonolobus (L.) DC
… has been obtained for the mature seeds of five varieties of winged bean, Psophocarpus tetragonolobus (L.) DC. The proteins of one of these varieties have been fractionated and partially characterized. The results confirm that winged beans have a high protein and fat content, which is …
