Amines proteins

Amides are acid derivatives that result from a combination of an acid with ammonia or an amine. Proteins have the structure of long-chain, complex amides.

Bio-Rex 70 2.4 0.70 Weakly acidic cation exchanger with car-boxylate groups on a macroreticular acrylic matrix for separation and fractionation of proteins, peptides, enzymes, and amines, particularly high molecular weight solutes. Does not denature proteins as do styrene-based resins. 

Capillary zone electrophoresis provides effective separations of any charged species, including inorganic anions and cations, organic acids and amines, and large biomolecules such as proteins. For example, CZE has been used to separate a mixture of 36 inorganic and organic ions in less than 3 minutes.Neutral species, of course, cannot be separated. 

Somatotropin, the P-adrenergic agonists, and the anaboHc steroids are considered metaboHsm modifiers because these compounds alter protein, Hpid, carbohydrate, mineral metaboHsm, or combinations of these and they partition nutrient use toward greater rates of protein deposition, ie, muscle growth, and lesser rates of Hpid accretion. Historical data leading to understanding of the mechanism (s) of action are found in reviews on anaboHc steroids (1), somatotropin (2—4), and the phenethano1 amines (5—7). 

The biochemical basis for the toxicity of mercury and mercury compounds results from its ability to form covalent bonds readily with sulfur. Prior to reaction with sulfur, however, the mercury must be metabolized to the divalent cation. When the sulfur is in the form of a sulfhydryl (— SH) group, divalent mercury replaces the hydrogen atom to form mercaptides, X—Hg— SR and Hg(SR)2, where X is an electronegative radical and R is protein (36). Sulfhydryl compounds are called mercaptans because of their ability to capture mercury. Even in low concentrations divalent mercury is capable of inactivating sulfhydryl enzymes and thus causes interference with cellular metaboHsm and function (31—34). Mercury also combines with other ligands of physiological importance such as phosphoryl, carboxyl, amide, and amine groups. It is unclear whether these latter interactions contribute to its toxicity (31,36). 

A fermented-egg product (EEP), patented as an attractive bait for synanthropic flies, has been shown to be attractive to coyotes and repeUent to deer (79). Its components are variable, with relative concentrations of 77% fatty acids, 13% bases, and 10% (primarily) neutrals composed of at least 54 volatiles such as ethyl esters, dimethyl disulfide, and 2-mercaptoethanol. Synthetic formulations have been evaluated to find a replacement for a patented fermented-egg protein product that attracts coyotes and repels deer. Ten aUphatic acids (C-2 to C-8), four amines (pentyl, hexyl, heptyl, and trimethyl), dimethyl disulfide, 2-mercaptoethanol, and 54 more volatiles (C-1 to C-5 esters of C-1 to C-8 acids) have been tested as synthetic fermented egg (SEE) (80) in approximately the same proportions that are present in EEP. Weathering was a problem that caused decreased efficacy, which suggests trials of controUed-release formulations. Eourteen repeUents have been examined against white-taU deer in Peimsylvania in choice tests when treated onto sheUed com (81). 

Fmctose is a highly reactive molecule. When stored in solution at high temperatures, fmctose not only browns rapidly but also polymeri2es to dianhydrides [38837-99-9] [50692-21-2] [50692-22-3] [50692-23-4] [50692-24-5]. Fmctose also reacts rapidly with amines and proteins in the nonen2ymatic or MaiUard browning reaction (5). This is a valued attribute in baked food products where cmst color is important. An appreciation of these properties allows the judicious choice of conditions under which fmctose can be used successfully in food appHcations. 

Nutrition. Zinc is essential to the proper functioning of plants and animals and, as zinc sulfate and oxide, it is used as a feed supplement (49—51) (see Mineral nutrients Feedsand feed additives). Most crops use less than a kilogram of zinc per 1000 m per year, so that zinc salts added at 1.3—4.5 kg/ha gradually build up the zinc reserve (52). Animals, including humans, store relatively Htde available zinc and, thus, require a constant supply in the diet. For instance, beef cattle require 10—30 mg/kg dry feed, dairy cattle 40 mg/kg, and breeding hens 65 mg/kg. Zinc from plants is considered less available to monogastric aminals than zinc from animal protein.
