SG sols were synthesized by hydrolysis of tetraethyloxysilane in the presence of polyelectrolyte and surfactant. Poly (vinylsulfonic acid) (PVSA) or poly (styrenesulfonic acid) (PSSA) were used as cation exchangers, Tween-20 or Triton X-100 were used as non- ionic surfactants. Obtained sol was dropped onto the surface of glass slide and dried over night. Template extraction from the composite film was performed in water- ethanol medium. The ion-exchange properties of the films were studied spectrophotometrically using adsorption of cationic dye Rhodamine 6G or Fe(Phen) and potentiometrically by sorption of protons.

The luciferin-luciferase reaction of Arachnocampa was first demonstrated by Wood (1993), by mixing a cold-water extract and a cooled hot-water extract. The cold-water extract was prepared with 27 mM Tricine, pH 7.4, containing 7mM MgSC>4, 0.2 mM EDTA, 10% glycerol and 1% Triton X-100, and incubated with 1 mM ATP on ice for 18 hr. The hot-water extract was prepared by heating the cold water extract before the addition of ATP at 98°C for 5 min. The luminescence reaction was performed in the presence of 1 mM ATP. 

The PemB cellular localisation was determined both in E. chrysanthenu and in an E. coli recombinant strain by Western blot of the cell fractions with a PemB-antiserum. No PemB was detected in the culture supernatant and only trace amounts were found in the soluble cell fractions - periplasm and cytoplasm (Figure 2). PemB was found mostly in the total membrane fraction from which it could be completely extracted by Triton X-100/Mg2+ and partially extracted by Sarkosyl (Figure 2). This behaviour is typical of inner membrane proteins, but since some exceptions have been noticed it does not positively indicate the PemB localisation (15). We performed cell membrane fractionation in sucrose density gradient centrifugation both by sedimentation and flotation, using several markers of inner and outer membrane vesicles. PemB was found in the outer membrane vesicles (data not shown). 

To check if PemB is surface exposed, E. chrysanthemi cells were subjected to proteolysis. Treatment of the cell suspension with trypsin, proteinase K or chimotrypsin at a concentration of 0.1 to 1 mg/ml for 1 h did not cause PemB proteolysis or its liberation into the medium. Cell pre-treatment with EDTA-lysozyme, which renders the periplasmic proteins accessible to proteases, gave no effect. PemB was also resistant to proteolytic digestion in extract of cells disrupted by sonication or in a French press. Only addition of Triton X-100 (up to 0.1%) causing formation of the micelles with PemB lead to a quick proteolyis of this protein (data not shown). In another approach to analyse the PemB exposition, bacterial cells were labelled with sulfo-NHS-biotin. This compound is unable to cross membranes and biotinylation...

Normal-phase chromatography is still widely used for the determination of nonpolar additives in a variety of commercial products and pharmaceutical formulations, e.g. the separation of nonpolar components in the nonionic surfactant Triton X-100. Most of the NPLC analyses of polymer additives have been performed in isocratic mode [576]. However, isocratic HPLC methods are incapable of separating a substantial number of industrially used additives [605,608,612-616], Normal-phase chromatography of Irgafos 168, Irganox 1010/1076/3114 was shown [240]. NPLC-UV has been used for quantitative analysis of additives in PP/(Irganox 1010/1076, Irgafos 168) after Soxhlet extraction (88%... 

It is important that any method for surfactant analysis maintains the same oligomer distribution in the extracted samples. LLE and SPE are generally combined with chromatographic methods for separation and resolution of non-ionic surfactants into their ethoxamers. An alternative is the use of SPME-HPLC, recently reported by Chen and Pawliszyn [141]. Alkylphenol ethoxylate surfactants such as Triton X-100 and various Rexol grades in water were determined by means of SPME-NPLC-UV (at 220 nm) [142]. Detection limits for individual alkylphenol ethoxamers were at low ppb level. 

Yang et al. [389] rapidly distinguished compounds extracted from paper, using on-line SFE-SFC-FHR in conjunction with principal component analysis. The quantitative determination of the surfactant mixture Triton X-100 and other complex oligoether surfactants by means of cSFC-FTIR flow-cells has been reported [390,391]. Practical applications of SFC-FTIR include the determination of nonvolatile compounds from microwave-susceptible packaging that may migrate into heated food. Another application is the analysis of fibre finishes on fibre/textile matrices. 

Apoptosis assay. ECRF24 or A2780 cells were seeded on 6-well plates (2 X 105 cells/ well) and grown 24 hours in complete medium before treatment. Compounds 1-3 were freshly dissolved in DMSO, diluted in complete medium and added to the cells at the final concentrations indicated in Table 2. After incubation for 72 h apoptosis was measured by flow cytometric determination of subdiploid cells after DNA extraction and subsequent staining with propidium iodide (PI) as described previously10. Briefly, cells were harvested and subsequently fixed in 70% ethanol at —20°C. After 2 h the cells were re-suspended in DNA extraction buffer (45 mM Na2HP04, 2.5 mM citric acid, and 1% Triton X-100, pH 7.4) for 20 min at 37°C. PI was added to a final concentration of 20 pg/mL and log scale red fluorescence was analyzed on a FACSCalibur (BD Biosciences, NJ, U.S.). 

After 2 h incubation of the prepared antibody beads with UV-crosslinked extract in a cold room, the beads are washed 4 x with 100 /A RIPA buffer (50 mMTris-HCl pH 7.5, 150 rnMNaCl, 1% NP-40, 0.5% sodium deoxycholate, and 0.1% SDS) and lx with genomic DNA lysis buffer (50 mM Tris, pH 7.4, 10 mM EDTA, 500 mM NaCl, 2.5 mM DTT, 0.5 mM spermidine, 1% Triton X-100). Approximately 300 /(I of PK solution (1 mg/ml proteinase K in genomic DNA lysis buffer and 0.2 U//A RNase inhibitor) is added to the total lysate previously kept on ice and the beads are then incubated at 37° for 30 min. Gently flick the tubes to resuspend the beads every 10 min during the incubation. After removal of the proteinase K solution, 300 /A of RNA extraction solution (4 M guanidine thiocyanate, 0.5% sarkosyl, and 25 mM sodium citrate, pH7) is added to the beads, incubated for 10 min and the supernatant is mixed with 30 fig yeast tRNA (as a carrier) and 30 fil of 3 M sodium acetate. The RNA solution is phenol-chloroform extracted, ethanol-precipitated, and the pellet washed once with 70% ethanol. The dry pellet is used for 1st strand cDNA synthesis, followed by PCR analysis. The removal of proteins... 

The next day (48 h posttransfection), the medium is replaced with fresh DMEM containing different concentrations of compound (nM—fiM concentration range). After 12 h of incubation, the cells are washed with PBS, 40 1 of luciferase lysis buffer [100 mM KxP04 (pH 7.8), 0.2% Triton X-100] is added to each well, and the plate is incubated for 15 min at room temperature with gentle rocking. The cell extract is transferred into Eppendorf tubes and kept on ice. 

A study of by Palmer-Toy et al.,12 summarized in Table 19.1, provides further empirical evidence of the utility of techniques coupling heating with efficient protein extraction for the proteomic analysis of FFPE tissue. A specimen from a patient with chronic stenosing external otitis was divided in half and preserved as fresh-frozen tissue or FFPE. Ten micromolar sections of the FFPE tissue were vortexed in heptane to deparaffinize the tissue and were then co-extracted with methanol. The methanol layer was evaporated, and the protein residue was resuspended in 2% SDS/lOOmM ammonium bicarbon-ate/20mM dithiothreitol (DTT), pH 8.5 and heated at 70°C for lh. After tryptic digestion, 123 total confident proteins were identified in the FFPE tissue, compared to 94 proteins identified from the fresh-frozen tissue. Hwang et al. also reported up to a fivefold increase in protein extraction efficiency for samples extracted in a Tris-HCl/2% SDS/1% Triton X-100/1% deoxycholate solution at 94°C for 30 min versus samples extracted in 100 mM ammonium bicarbonate/30% acetonitrile at the same temperature.14...

Crisp et al. [212] has described a method for the determination of non-ionic detergent concentrations between 0.05 and 2 mg/1 in fresh, estuarine, and seawater based on solvent extraction of the detergent-potassium tetrathiocyana-tozincate (II) complex followed by determination of extracted zinc by atomic AAS. A method is described for the determination of non-ionic surfactants in the concentration range 0.05-2 mg/1. Surfactant molecules are extracted into 1,2-dichlorobenzene as a neutral adduct with potassium tetrathiocyanatozin-cate (II), and the determination is completed by AAS. With a 150 ml water sample the limit of detection is 0.03 mg/1 (as Triton X-100). The method is relatively free from interference by anionic surfactants the presence of up to 5 mg/1 of anionic surfactant introduces an error of no more than 0.07 mg/1 (as Triton X-100) in the apparent non-ionic surfactant concentration. The performance of this method in the presence of anionic surfactants is of special importance, since most natural samples which contain non-ionic surfactants also contain anionic surfactants. Soaps, such as sodium stearate, do not interfere with the recovery of Triton X-100 (1 mg/1) when present at the same concentration (i.e., mg/1). Cationic surfactants, however, form extractable nonassociation compounds with the tetrathiocyanatozincate ion and interfere with the method. 

The structure and roles of membrane microdomains (rafts) in cell membranes are under intensive study but many aspects are still unresolved. Unlike in synthetic bilayers (Fig. 2-2), no way has been found to directly visualize rafts in biomembranes [22]. Many investigators operationally define raft components as those membrane lipids and proteins (a) that remain insoluble after extraction with cold 1% Triton X-100 detergent, (b) that are recovered as a low density band that can be isolated by flotation centrifugation and (c) whose presence in this fraction should be reduced by cholesterol depletion. 

Common surfactants such as Tween, Triton,5 and sodium dihexyl sulfosuc-cinate, among many others, have been used to extract organic compounds from soil. In the field, they have been particularly useful in the remediation of soils contaminated with halogenated organic compounds, oils, and other hydrocarbon compounds [24],... 

The tissue or cell sample is firstly homogenized in a buffer containing a detergent such as Triton X-100 and sodium deodecyl sulphate (SDS), which disrupts the cell and dissociates DNA-protein complexes. Protein and RNA are then removed by sequential incubations with a proteolytic enzyme (usually proteinase K) and ribonuclease. Finally the DNA is extracted into ethanol. Ethanol only precipitates long chain nucleic acids and so leaves the single nucleotides from RNA digestion in the aqueous layer.
