Process experimental protocols

Most experimental protocols determine the time of harvest from the application dates of the experimental chemical product. If the study s Principal Investigator has guessed correctly months earlier when the first application was made, the crop will be at the proper maturity when harvested. However, if the weather or some other factor changes, the crop may be immature or over-ripe. If the experimental protocol does not permit for these variations in growing conditions, there may be an adverse impact on the ability to process the test samples properly, possibly resulting in atypical processed fraction samples.

Aqueous micellar solutions of many nonionic surfactants, with an increase in temperature, become turbid over a narrow temperature range, which is referred to as their cloud-point [17,277]. Above the cloud-point temperature, such solutions separate into two isotropic phases. Cloud-point extraction (CPE) is also referred to as a particular case of ATPE [278,279] and more specifically as aqueous micellar two-phase systems [10,277]. Very recently, in an extensive review, Quina and Hinze [280] have discussed in detail the emergence of CPE as an environmentally benign separation process, highlighting the basic features, experimental protocols, recent applications, and future trends in this area. 

As far as experimental protocol is concerned, this will correspond to the mode of operation chosen. The protocol is essentially the analysis recipe and is generally a process controlled by predefined standards. This procedure involves standardisation at each stage of analysis from sample preparation to experimental measurement. 

The experimental protocol was always the same the racemic alcohol was solved in hexane and a half molar equivalent of DBTA was suspended in that solution. [16, 38] Without stirring, complex formation reactions were quite slow under these heterogenous conditions, one had to wait for 7-20 days until the process had finished (Figure 1). 

Subsequent to recovery of the total lipids of a cellular preparation as a chloroform-soluble fraction, the total phosphorus content can be determined (see Chapter 3) and then, depending on the amount of lipid phosphorus (or whether the preparation is radiolabeled or not, see below), analytical and/or preparative thin-layer chromatography can be undertaken. In either case, if the experimental protocol is centered on a signal-transduction process, then there may be insufficient material for a phosphorus analysis. In the latter instance, the cellular preparation is prelabeled with 32P or [3H]inositol and the labeled products are located by autoradiography. A preferred type of adsorbent (for thin-layer chromatography) is Merck silica gel 60 (oxalate impregnated). An effective solvent for separation of the phosphatidylinosi-tols and other lipids is chloroform-acetone-methanol-acetic acid-water (80 30 26 24 14, v/v). The approximate / values of cellular phospholipids under these conditions are presented as follows ... 

The proton-decoupled proton spectra allowed a distinction to be made between homo-and heteronuclear spin couplings, and Laurie and coworkers also demonstrated nulling of residual solvent resonances during the 2D /-resolved NMR of uridine in aqueous solution, wrote software for 45° tilting of the 2D spectra, and developed experimental protocols for multiple data-acquisition and processing, and a method for acquisition of the 2D /-resolved spectra in phase-sensitive mode. Lately, the 2D /-resolved technique has been less used, as it yields little evidence for spectral assignments. 

If chemisorption and related electrocatalytic processes are to be described in terms of the making and breaking of metal-organic surface chemical bonds, experiments need to be condncted in such a maimer that ambiguities in data interpretation are minimized. Towards this objective, stndies of model interfacial ensembles must include the following experimental protocols ... 

Numerous in vitro and in vivo tests have been developed to study specific steps of the neoangiogenic process. Several of these experimental protocols use the same techniques applied for assessment of tumor cell behavior (Albini, 1998). The activated endothelial cell acts similarly to a metastatic cell in the initial phases of angiogenesis, degrading the capillary basement membrane (BM), extravasating, digesting the extracellular matrix and moving toward the angiogenic stimulus (Liotta et al., 1991). For this reason...
