Abstract:

The phase diagrams of binary systems of cobalt(II) octanoate and lithium, sodium, potassium, and thallium(I) octanoates have been studied by differential thermal analysis and polythermal polarization microscopy. In all systems, continuous or limited liquid crystalline solutions of smectic modification are formed. The temperature and composition ranges of the formation of liquid crystals and glasses have been determined.

Abstract:

Effects of Sodium Octanoate, Acylated Ghrelin, and Desacylated Ghrelin on the Growth of Genetically EngineeredEscherichia ColiAcylated ghrelin is a 28-amino acid peptide hormone bearing a fatty acid group based on octanoic acid (caprylic acid) at the serine which is located at position 3 and at the N-terminus. If this fatty acid is cleaved from acylated ghrelin, the remaining peptide is referred to as desacylated ghrelin. Free fatty acids (FFAs) can kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria. The purpose of this study was to test this ability using acylated ghrelin, desacylated ghrelin, and sodium

Abstract:

Sodium valproate (VPA), a simple 8-carbon branched chain fatty acid, is an effective anti-epileptic drug with an occasional serious side effect of liver damage, including the accumulation of triacylglycerols within hepatocytes, and reductions in serum protein concentrations. By investigating the effects of VPA, using biliary fistula rats and isolated perfused rat livers, we have shown that secretion of triacylglycerols and rat serum albumin at the sinusoidal pole of hepatocytes, and of phospholipids, lysosomal contents, and IgA at their biliary pole, are all reduced, to somewhat different exte

Abstract:

Abstract Polyhydroxyalcanoates (PHAs) are specifically produced by a wide variety of bacteria, as an intracellular energy reserve in the form of homo- and copolymers of [R]-β-hydroxyalkanoic acids, depending on the C source used for microorganism growth, when the cells are grown under stressing conditions. In this paper we present microbiological accumulation of poly-3-hydroxyoctanoate (PHO) by using a consortium of bacterial strains, Pseudomonas putida and Bacillus subtilis, in a rate of 3:1, grown on a fermentation medium based on sodium octanoate as the sole carbon source.

Structural and magnetic properties of one anionic and one cationic amphiphile molecule (sodium octanoate and hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride, respectively) in water are studied comparing different methods to account for the presence of the solvent. Calculated 13C NMR chemical shifts are used as the probe for accuracy of the theoretical electronic structures obtained with different descriptions of the surfactants in water solution. The best agreement with the experimental data are obtained by averaging 13C NMR isotropic chemical shifts over a large number of conformational structures of sod

Sucrose butyrate, caprate, octanoate, palmitate, oleate, octaacetate, phthalate, benzoate, and sucrose diacetate hexaisobutyrate were tested.

The activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase in extracts of mitochondria from rat hepatocytes cultured for 21 h in medium 199 was increased 2.5-fold by the presence of 55 nM-glucagon and 1 mM-sodium n-octanoate in the culture medium. The change was comparable with that induced in vivo by 48 h starvation. The potential contribution of branched-chain complex to estimates of PDH-complex activity in rat liver mitochondria has been defined.
