Operant Analysis Of Behavior Associated With Oral Self-Administration Of Drug Solutions In Rats, Joseph David Zabik

Open Access Dissertations

Since many drugs which are abused by man are taken orally, it was desirable to develop a method suitable to quantitatively and reliably measure oral self-administration of drugs and their effects on behavior in experimental animals.

Water deprived rats were trained to lick for drug solutions (4.34 ul/lick) and bar press for food on a Fixed Interval (FI) 60 second schedule and press another bar for secondary reinforcements on a Fixed Ratio (FR)-5 schedule as three concurrent operants. Non-discriminated responding was inconsequential. An appropriate drug solution was substituted for water or the drugs were injected intraperitoneally before the session. For …

Thiol Amino Acids In Quality Control And Nutritive Value Of Fishery Products, Mohsin Ali

Open Access Dissertations

The quality of fish products is dependent upon the raw material and the process employed for their reproduction. The availability of the amino acids present in the protein component determine the value of the product as a food supplement. Amino acid availqbility can be determined by chemical, biochemical and biological methods. Most of the procedures are rather lengthy. A widely used chemical procedure, the available lysine method, is based on determining the quality of total lysine having free or reactable epsilon amino groups. This research has been directed toward the development of a procedure for determining the quantity of reactable …

Biological Inactivation Of Proteins By The Maillard Reaction, Jaime Amaya-Farfan

Open Access Dissertations

The effects of the Maillard reaction on the biological activity of insulin as a hormone, and on the utilization of egg albumin as a source of amino acids have been studied.

In order to know the number, the position, and the effect of the glucose residues that bind a protein, crystalline zinc insulin was stored with ¹⁴C-glucose at 37° and 68% R.H. for four months. The unreacted sugar was separated from insulin in a Bio-Gel column and the bound radioactivity counted. The first sugar residue reacted within five days, and additional 2.7 residues reacted through the end of the …
