Depression, Great

Today, a network of more than 300,000 miles of interstate natural gas pipelines sei"vcs markets across the U.S, Construction of this network began in the 1920s, but large-scale expansion was limited by the technology of the day, the Great Depression and, finally. World War II. [Pg.835]

This type of in vitro study is relevant because it mimics likely physiological conditions. Red cells contain 1-2 mM GSH so the formation of glutathione complexes would be a likely consequence when auranofin metabolites enter red cells [112, 113]. Compared with typical in vivo gold concentrations of 10-15 pM observed in patients, the Ki values for the four gold complexes are less than anticipated. This indicates that chrysotherapy can greatly depress GSH-Pxase activity in vivo so the normal cellular redox balance would be displaced, favoring the accumulation of H2O2 and possibly GSH [3, 79, 114]. [Pg.300]

Biotin is a growth factor for many bacteria, protozoa, plants, and probably all higher animals. In the absence of biotin, oxalacetate decarboxylation, oxalosuccinate carboxylation, a-ketoglutarate decarboxylation, malate decarboxylation, acetoacetate synthesis, citrulline synthesis, and purine and pyrimidine syntheses, are greatly depressed or absent in cells (Mil, Tl). All of these reactions require either the removal or fixation of carbon dioxide. Together with coenzyme A, biotin participates in carboxylations such as those in fatty acid and sterol syntheses. Active C02 is thought to be a carbonic acid derivative of biotin involved in these carboxylations (L10, W10). Biotin has also been involved in... [Pg.209]

Camphor has a very high cryoscopic constant and its melting point is very greatly depressed by substances dissolved in it. The depression is about 8 times as great as that in benzene. Ebenzene = 5-1, Eoamphor = 40. This means that a molar solution in camphor melts 40° lower than the solvent, i.e. than camphor itself. Accordingly, even with relatively dilute camphor solutions the depressions obtained are so great that the sensitivity of an ordinary thermometer (which can be read to 0-25°) suffices completely for the determination.2... [Pg.86]

Inhibition of erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase activity or serum cholinesterase activity with or without concomitant neurological signs is usually a good indicator of organophosphate exposure. In addition, T-lymphocyte acetylcholinesterase activity was found to be rapidly and greatly depressed in rats during a 14-day daily exposure to disulfoton, but rapidly recovered after exposure (Fitzgerald... [Pg.121]

The chemurgy movement grew rapidly during the time of the Great Depression, and the advent of the Second World War resulted in a huge amount of activity to derive as many products as possible from domestic sources, for strategic reasons. However, with the end of the war, the development of many new cheap products by the petrochemicals industry led to the rapid demise of the chemurgy movement. [Pg.4]

An especially effective reduction of the Krafft Point results from the insertion of ether groups into the molecule of the anionic surfactant. In table I this is examplified with Na dodecyl sulfate and Na-tetra-decyl sulfate in comparison to various n-alkyl ether sulfates of the same chain length (10). As a measure of the Krafft Point, a temperature is deTined at which a 1 7o solution dissolves clearly. By the incorporation of oxyalkylene groups into the molecule, the Krafft -Point and the melting point are greatly depressed. This depression is especially effective if there is branching in the oxyalkylene groups. [Pg.6]

Thesis statement The Great Depression was caused neither by the stock market crash of 1929 nor the Smoot Hawley Tariff Act. [Pg.73]

In this essay, I would like to consider why the Great Depression occurred. Some people contend that it was caused by the stock market crash of 1929. Many economists point to the Smoot Hawley Tariff Act as the real reason. However, there is strong evidence to suggest that neither of these factors caused the Great Depression. [Pg.173]

Hypersensitivity to the drug or any other component of the product (cross-sensitivity between phenothiazines may occur) comatose or greatly depressed states caused by CNS depressants or from any other cause (phenothiazines, clozapine, loxapine, molindone, pimozide, haloperidol) coadministration with other drugs that prolong the QT interval and in patients with congenital long QT syndrome or history of cardiac arrhythmias (mesoridazine, thioridazine, pimozide, ziprasidone see Drug..Interactions). [Pg.1100]

The reaction of lithium with the electrolyte to form a surface film significantly modifies its behaviour. On the one hand, the film confers chemical stability and useful shelf life on the system. On the other, it is responsible for greatly depressed exchange currents and the consequent phenomenon of voltage delay, as discussed in Chapter 3 in connection with magnesium aqueous batteries. It is convenient to discuss separately film formation with insoluble and with liquid and soluble cathode systems. [Pg.114]

Free fatty acids released by lipolysis of milk fat greatly depress the surface tension of milk. In fact, surface tension has been used to some extent as an objective index of the development of hydrolytic rancidity (Dunkley 1951 Herrington 1954 Hetrick and Tracy 1948 Tarassuk and Smith 1940). Its value for this purpose is somewhat limited by... [Pg.431]

History events and time periods such as World War II, the Great Depression, treatment of Native Americans, and America s break from British rule. Historical events may be written about from many perspectives, and can be used to make points about a variety of subjects. The Depression, for example, was an economic event that had many factors, including human emotion (fear). [Pg.59]
