The applications of foam fractionation are many. Its use is primarily to concentrate materials present in low concentration (as low as 10 " M/L) in liquids where other processes are not economical. On a commercial scale, this process is used to treat waste water to remove organic waste material and to remove ions from process streams such as the oxyanions of Re(VIII), Mo(VI), Cr(VI), W(VI) and V(V) and the cyanide complex anions or the chloride complexes of Zn(Il), Cd(II), Hg(II), and Au(Ill). In the laboratory, it is used to concentrate proteins such as bovine albumin, cytochrome-c, barley malt, alpha amalyase, and beta casein, as well as proteins and enzymes from various plant and animal systems. 

The processing of animal tissue materials and of microorganisms (not required for the current manufacturing process), the performance of test procedures involving animals or microorganisms, and any animal houses, must be well separated from premises for manufacturing sterile medicinal products, with completely separate ventilation systems, and separate staff. 

Silicones are widely used as inert materials in medicine. In particular, their use in silicon breast implants and catheters has raised questions regarding the interaction of silicones with human cells and tissues. The mobility, toxicology, and immunology of silicones in higher animal systems have been investigated extensively over the last decade. It is not possible to adequately cover the relevant literature in this chapter and readers are directed to a recent review dealing with these aspects. 

The results of the Ames test for mutagenesis Indicate that many ruthenium compounds Introduce serious lesions into cellular genetic material so that an error-prone DNA repair mechanism is Induced. These results are similar to those obtained for clsplatln (M) and suggest that these complexes probably bind directly to nuclear DNA. In concert with this, many of the ruthenium complexes also Inhibit cellular DNA synthesis (H, ), another property also noted for the cls-platlnum drugs. Unfortunately, however, there Is no correlation between either of these studies and the antitumor activity of ruthenium compounds tested In animal systems. 

Proteins are polymers of amino acids. They are the major structural materials in animal systems. All naturally occurring proteins are formed from 22 amino acids, although only 20 are common. The amino acids are linked by peptide bonds. A polypeptide is a polymer formed by linking many amino acids by peptide bonds. 

Appreciable quantities of alkanes are ingested by animals as constituents of plant material and also by man as artificial additives (e.g. mineral oils) of foodstuffs or as components of natural or artificially produced oils and fats. Very little is known about the details of the metabolic turnover of such compounds. As in micro-organisms, it is likely that alkanes are detoxified in animals and plants by a mixed-function oxidase which forms the alcohols that may be further metabolized or excreted in the urine as conjugates, such as glucoronides or sulphates. Most of the compounds reported were characterized (GC-MS) after extraction from urine fractions that had been incubated with the appropriate enzyme to cleave the conjugate. Some biotransformations of alkanes by animal systems (mainly in vivo) are summarized in Figure 7. 

B. E. Wright, J. Biol. Chem. 219, 873 (1956). It is probable that the natural cofactors in animal systems also are conjugates of tetrahydrofolic acid. Assays of fresh extracts for folio acid vitamin activity reveal the presence of very little active material in most tissues, but the amounts increase upon autolysis. Both oxidized and reduced pteridines occur as folic acid derivatives containing one or more additional glutamic acid residues. Enzymes that hydrolyze peptide bonds to liberate folic acid activity have been found in many organisms and have been named conjugases [E. L. R. Stokstad, Vitamins 3, 163 (1954)]. 

First, we consider the experimental aspects of osmometry. The semiperme-able membrane is the basis for an osmotic pressure experiment and is probably its most troublesome feature in practice. The membrane material must display the required selectivity in permeability-passing solvent and retaining solute-but a membrane that works for one system may not work for another. A wide variety of materials have been used as membranes, with cellophane, poly (vinyl alcohol), polyurethanes, and various animal membranes as typical examples. The membrane must be thin enough for the solvent to pass at a reasonable rate, yet sturdy enough to withstand the pressure difference which can be... 

Although the compounds were isolated in quantities of only a few milligrams per kilogram of cmde plant leaves, extensive work on a variety of animal tumor systems led to eventual clinical use of these bases, first alone and later in conjunction with other materials, in the treatment of Hodgkin s disease and acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Their main effect appears to be binding tightly to tubuHn, the basic component of microtubules found in eukaryotic cells, thus interfering with its polymerization and hence the formation of microtubules required for tumor proliferation (82). 

The identity of the moiety (other than glycerol) esterified to the phosphoric group determines the specific phosphoHpid compound. The three most common phosphoHpids in commercial oils are phosphatidylcholine or lecithin [8002-45-5] (3a), phosphatidylethanolamine or cephalin [4537-76-2] (3b), and phosphatidjlinositol [28154-49-7] (3c). These materials are important constituents of plant and animal membranes. The phosphoHpid content of oils varies widely. Laurie oils, such as coconut and palm kernel, contain a few hundredths of a percent. Most oils contain 0.1 to 0.5%. Com and cottonseed oils contain almost 1% whereas soybean oil can vary from 1 to 3% phosphoHpid. Some phosphoHpids, such as dipaLmitoylphosphatidylcholine (R = R = palmitic R" = choline), form bilayer stmetures known as vesicles or Hposomes. The bdayer stmeture can microencapsulate solutes and transport them through systems where they would normally be degraded. This property allows their use in dmg deHvery systems (qv) (8). 

In certain brilliantine compositions, vegetable and animal oils are used as substitutes for mineral oil. In these systems, because of their potential for rancidity, antioxidants must be included. Other alternatives to mineral oils that have found utiHty in brilliantines are the polyethylene glycols which come in a variety of solubiHties and spreading properties. Use of these materials offers the advantage of chemical stabiHty to rancidity. Other additives found in brilliantines to improve their aesthetics include colorants, fragrance, medicated additives, lanolin, and fatty acid esters. 

Milk has been a source for food for humans since the beginning of recorded history. Although the use of fresh milk has increased with economic development, the majority of consumption occurs after milk has been heated, processed, or made into butter. The milk industry became a commercial enterprise when methods for preservation of fluid milk were introduced. The successful evolution of the dairy industry from small to large units of production, ie, the farm to the dairy plant, depended on sanitation of animals, products, and equipment cooling faciUties health standards for animals and workers transportation systems constmction materials for process machinery and product containers pasteurization and sterilization methods containers for distribution and refrigeration for products in stores and homes. 

The earliest mention of an ammonium carbonate, salt of hartshorn, appears in English manuscripts of the 14th century. As the name implies, the material was obtained by dry distillation of animal waste such as horn, leather, and hooves. Although many salts have been described in the Hterature for the ternary NH —CO2—H2O system, most, except for ammonium bicarbonate [1066-33-7], NH HCO, ammonium carbonate [506-87-6], (NH 2 02, and ammonium carbamate [1111-78-0], NH4CO2NH2, are mixtures (5,6). 

Saline Water for Municipal Distribution. Only a very small amount of potable water is actually taken by people or animals internally, and it is quite uneconomical to desalinate all municipally piped water, although all distributed water must be clear and free of harmful bacteria. Most of the water piped to cities and industry is used for Htfle more than to carry off small amounts of waste materials or waste heat. In many locations, seawater can be used for most of this service. If chlorination is requited, it can be accompHshed by direct electrolysis of the dissolved salt (21). Arrayed against the obvious advantage of economy, there are several disadvantages use of seawater requites different detergents sewage treatment plants must be modified the usual metal pipes, pumps, condensers, coolers, meters, and other equipment corrode more readily chlorination could cause environmental poUution and dual water systems must be built and maintained.
