The Chromatographic Purification Of Human Red Blood Cell Acetylcholinesterase, Richard P. Dunkley
The Chromatographic Purification Of Human Red Blood Cell Acetylcholinesterase, Richard P. Dunkley
Theses and Dissertations
A process of column chromatography of human erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase, using a cationic exchange resin, was investigated as a possible method for the primary partial purification of the enzyme on a large scale. The investigation was based, first; on a detailed study of the enzymatic stability to variation in hydrogen-ion and salt concentrations for periods of time extending to forty eight hours and, second; on an investigation of the degree of adsorption by the resin of the enzyme at various pH values within the pH range of enzyme stability. A method for the analysis of the enzyme activity of large numbers …
Biological Oxidation Of Copper Sulfide Minerals, Delmar Boyd Davis
Biological Oxidation Of Copper Sulfide Minerals, Delmar Boyd Davis
Theses and Dissertations
This work represents a study of the biological oxidation of copper sulfide minerals. The principal objective of the study was to determine the extent of bacterial oxidation on copper containing sulfide minerals. It was also desired to determine if the bacteria could oxidize copper sulfides in the absence of iron. A better understanding of the nitrogen requirements of the organisms was desired. Minerals used in this study were Bingham Canyon Float Concentrate, chalcopyrite, covellite, calcocite, bornite, tetrahedrite, and reagent grade copper sulfide. The bacteria used were obtained from the mine waters of Bingham Canyon, Utah. To study the problem the …
