Nisin acts bactericidally primarily against gram-positive bacteria. It acts best at acid pH and is almost insoluble at physiological pH. Nisin and probably all lantibiotics appear to permeabilize the bacterial ceU membrane to release small molecules, resulting in an immediate coUapse of the membrane... 

Properties. Some physical properties of nerve agents are given in Table 2. The G-agents, miscible in both polar and nonpolar solvents, hydrolyze slowly in water at neutral or slightly acid pH and more rapidly under strong acid or alkaline conditions. The hydrolysis products are considerably less toxic than the original agent. 

It has been found that the growth hormone can be obtained in crystalline form from human pituitary glands by procedures comprising (1) extraction of the fresh glands with acetone, (2) extraction of the acetone residue with aqueous salt solutions, (3) precipitation from aqueous salt solutions by the addition of suitable miscible organic solvents of alkaline and acid pH, and finally crystallization from aqueous salt solutions by the addition of suitable miscible organic solvents. 

The activity of diamidines is reduced by acid pH and in the presence of blood and serum. Microorganisms may acquire resistance by serial subculture in the presence of increasing doses of the compounds. Propamidine and dibromopropamidine, as the isethionate salts, are the major diamidine derivatives employed as antimicrobial agents propamidine in the form of eye-drops (0.1%) for amoebic infection and dibromopropamidine for topical treatment of minor infections.

The 12-membered macrocyclic triamine bearing a phenol pendent (591) was synthesized by one-pot annealation from coumarin and l,7-diamino-4-azaheptane. Upon coordination to Ni, the pendent phenol readily dissociates its proton at acidic pH and becomes a strong fourth donor.1506... 

A small amount of lingual lipase is also present and plays a role in the breakdown of dietary lipid. This enzyme is optimally active at an acidic pH and therefore remains active through the stomach and into the intestine. 

The hydrazinium nicotinate group on these reagents commonly is protected against reaction with the active ester by the addition of acetone to form the acetone hydrazone derivative. This hydrazone protective group is readily reversible at neutral or mildly acidic pH and will immediately exchange with a benzaldehyde on the corresponding chemoselective partner to form a stable hydrazone linkage. 

Starting from the observations that HpHb has a much higher peroxidase activity at acid pH and is more resistant to I2 than Hb, Jayle (J5) devised two similar methods for measuring Hp—the activation and the saturation methods—which are still in common use. The difference between the electrophoretic mobility of HpHb and of Hb was also later (L10) utilized to estimate the serum Hp concentration. The general agreement between results obtained by both methods was shown by Nyman (N5). 

Acidity (pH) and redox-potential (Eh) of melted snow samples were measured by conventional methods using a Yokogawa pH 81 ionometer. The main cations and anions in the melted snow fraction were determined by titrimetric analysis. In group 1 (Institute of Mineralogy UB RAS), AAS (Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, Ni, Co, Pb, Cd) and titrimetric analysis (Ca, Mg, S, Cl, C) were performed to determine elements in melted snow and solid residue upon filtrating 1 liter snow sample through a 0.5 micrometer pore size filter. 

Many fillers and pigments are cationic at acidic pH and thus can be deposited on to negatively charged cellulose fibres relatively...

This hydrogen bonding capacity expressed by the polar selectivity is not limited to an increase in retention for phenols. Packings with embedded polar groups that excel in this feature also exhibit increased retention for analytes with other functional groups. Specifically, carboxylic acids at acidic pH and with acetonitrile as the organic modifier and compounds with sulfonamide functions at acidic and neutral pH exhibit significant... 

Mechanistically, transamination by the free coenzyme proceeds through a number of discrete steps as illustrated in Fig. 3. The first step of the process, aldi-mine formation (Fig. 3, Step I), is common to all pyridoxal-dependent reactions. The rate and extent of this reaction are influenced by factors including reactant concentrations, the nature of the amino acid, pH, and solvent. However, it is important to realize that the coenzyme itself facilitates Schiff base formation in... 

Bile acids have previously been considered to have primarily promoting effects during tumourigenesis. However, there is increasing evidence that certain bile acids, particularly deoxycholic acid, have significant genotoxic effects that could contribute to tumour initiation. Deoxycholic acid demonstrates genotoxic effects at both acidic pH and neutral conditions. In the context of reflux... 

In the multi-enzyme system described by Sheldon et al. [15], the key point is the use of the phosphatase phytase from Aspergillus ficuum, which is a cheap and readily available industrial enzyme. Phytase is active at acid pH and becomes inactive at neutral pH. Thus, the pH can be used to switch on/off the activities of the various enzymes, allowing us to carry out the four-enzyme cascade in one pot. 

Both H3PO4 and TEA should be free of UV absorbing materials. If they are not, a convenient procedure to eliminate all UV absorbing materials is to apply component A to a preparative column (high or low pressure) of C18 material that will absorb all hydrophobic UV absorbing impurities. Typically, the concentrations of H3PO4 and TEA are increased five- to eightfold for preparative scale uses at acidic pH and two- to fourfold at neutral pH.
