An investigation of the basic conditions for tocopherol determination in vegetable oils and fats by differential pulse polarography
The polarographic behavior of α-, γ-, and δ-tocopherols was studied according to the proposed official IUPAC method for tocopherol determination in vegetable oils and fats. Each of the tocopherols had a differ...

Cytoskeletal filaments of heart conducting system localized by antibody against a 55,000 dalton protein
Cow heart conducting cells characteristically contain cytoplasmic intermediate-sized filaments. We report here the preparation of a specific antibody to a 55,000 dalton protein of isolated cow Purkinje fibres....

Transcellular Aqueous Humor Outflow: A Theoretical and Experimental Study
When the aqueous humor passed through the transcellular channels of the inner wall endothelium of Schlemm’s canal the flow was estimated to be very slow and viscous (Reynolds’ number about 10-3). It was found to ...

A possible new locus of alkaline phosphatase expressed in human testis
Human testes contain trace amounts of heat-stable placental-like alkaline phosphatase. Using a recently described allotype-specific monoclonal antibody (F11) toward placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP), we show ...

Homicidal blunt abdominal trauma with isolated laceration of the small bowel mesentery
Nonpenetrating abdominal trauma rarely causes isolated mesenteric lacerations with fatal hemorrhages. When this does happen, it is often the result of compression by a lap seat belt or a steering wheel, only e...

The patients dying after long terminal phase have acidotic brains; implications for biochemical measurements on autopsy tissue
Measurement of the frontal cortex and the medulla oblongata pH at autopsy revealed that those brains from individuals who died after long terminal phase had lower pHs than those who died quickly. These low pHs...

Neoplastic disease in a medicolegal autopsy material
Only a small fraction of sudden unexpected deaths are caused by neoplastic disease and thus subject to medicolegal autopsy. The medicolegal autopsy forms an opportunity to study not only medically diagnosed an...

Effects of oestrogen therapy and orchidectomy on coagulation and prostanoid synthesis in patients with prostatic cancer
Twenty patients with prostatic carcinoma were randomized to therapy with either oestrogens (n =10) or orchidectonty (n =10). Activators and inhibitors of coagulation were studied before t...

Region Dependent Distribution of Muscle Fibre Types and Muscle Spindles in the Human Masseter Muscle Studied in Cross-Sections of Whole Muscle
Human masseter is divided anatomical into superficial and deep parts, but regional specialisation in the distribution of fibre types and muscle spindles is organised differently. Thus, the anterior part is pre...
