The Isolation And Identification Of Polyphenolics From Grape Seeds And Their Activity Towards Specific Cell Lines, Joseph A. Reddy
The Isolation And Identification Of Polyphenolics From Grape Seeds And Their Activity Towards Specific Cell Lines, Joseph A. Reddy
Chemistry & Biochemistry Theses & Dissertations
Grape seed extract is being marketed in France for cardiovascular use and skin care. The active constituents of both these drugs are certain polyphenols called procyanidins. A similar seed extract has now been obtained from Virginia Chardonnay grape seeds. Ten of the major components in this extract have been isolated in their pure form by the semi-preparative HPLC separation on a YMC ODS-AQ (Octadecylsilane-AQ) column. The ODS-Aq column has been shown to have a better resolving capacity compared to the Spherisorb ODS (Octadecylsilane) column previously described in the literature. This has been attributed to the ODSAQ support which has both …
Analysis Of The Proteoglycan Content In Fresh And Cryopreserved Porcine Cardiovascular Tissues, Yun Hee Shon
Analysis Of The Proteoglycan Content In Fresh And Cryopreserved Porcine Cardiovascular Tissues, Yun Hee Shon
Theses and Dissertations in Biomedical Sciences
The purpose of this research was to study the effects of cryopreservation on the proteoglycan (PG) and mineral content of aorta conduit tissue. Proteoglycans from fresh and cryopreserved porcine aorta conduit tissues were isolated by extraction with 4 M guanidine (Gdn) - hydrochloride (HCl) for 48 hours. Quantitative analysis of extracted proteoglycans revealed that the content of proteoglycan material from cryopreserved tissue, measured as uronate and protein per unit weight of wet tissue, was similar to that from fresh tissue. Gel permeation column chromatography studies suggested that proteoglycans present in three CsCl fractions from cryopreserved tissues had molecular weights similar …

To test the hypothesis that epidermal rather than dermal mosaicism determines Blaschko's lines in hypomelanosis of Ito (HI), we studied the distribution of chromosomal mosaicism in four patients. In two, mosaicism had not been detected in lymphocytes or dermal fibroblasts, but was clearly shown in epidermal keratinocytes; furthermore, the abnormal cell line was confirmed to the hypopigmented epidermis and the normal epidermis contained only normal cells. Negative findings in the other two patients might be because of mosaicism which was undetected either because it was submicroscopic or because it was present in melanocytes, which have not yet been studied. These …
