Описание: The international conference on "Invertebrate Oxygen Carriers" took place from July 29th to August 1st, 1985, at Tutzing, in a pleasant setting on Lake Starn- berg. It was the 8th in a series which started in 1966 with a meeting in Naples on the "Physiology and Biochemistry of Haemocyanins" organized by F. Ghiretti. The list of contributors and participants of the Naples meeting reports thirty names among which we find that of A. C. Redfield, a pioneer of this field. In Tutzing over 100 scientists came together to discuss their research on all types of oxygen transporting proteins. Clearly the invertebrate hemoglobins have received increasing attention, and a more unified view of their complex quaternary structure is emerging. Their sequences are becoming unravelled and their functions more rationally understood. Hemerythrins have been covered, and their mechanism of binding oxygen explained lucidly. In the hemocyanin field there were exiting new results at every structural level - the X-ray structure of Panulirus hemocyanin, a wealth of sequence data for both arthropodan and molluscan types of hemocyanin, the molecular dimension of native hemocyanins provided by cryo-electron microscopy. New insights into the evolution of copper proteins have been obtained. There are new approaches to explain allosteric interaction in such complicated systems. The scope of investigations reaches from molecular genetics to organismic physiology. The conference received major support from the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft and from the Bayerisches Staatsministerium fUr Unterricht und Kultus.

Описание: This is a book about how Cl- crosses the cell membranes of nerve, muscle, and glial cells. Second, work on Cl- transport in red blood cells confirmed that the Cl- transmembrane distribution was thermodynamically passive and, in addition, showed that Cl- crossed the mem- brane extremely rapidly.

Описание: The discovery of uniform latex particles by polymer chemists of the Dow Chemical Company nearly 50 years ago opened up new exciting fields for scientists and physicians and established many new biomedical applications. Many in vitro diagnostic tests such as the latex agglutination tests, analytical cell and phagocytosis tests have since become rou- tine. They were all developed on the basis of small particles bound to biological active molecules and fluorescent and radioactive markers. Further developments are ongoing, with the focus now shifted to applications of polymer particles in the controlled and di- rected transport of drugs in living systems. Four important factors make microspheres interesting for in vivo applications: First, biocompatible polymer particles can be used to transport known amounts of drug and re- lease them in a controlled fashion. Second, particles can be made of materials which bio- degrade in living organisms without doing any harm. Third, particles with modified surfaces are able to avoid rapid capture by the reticuloendothelial system and therefore en- hance their blood circulation time. Fourth, combining particles with specific molecules may allow organ-directed targeting.
