What's the difference between cirrate and citrate?
Cirrate
Definition:
(a.) Having cirri along the margin of a part or organ.
Example Sentences:
(1) In cirrate octopods, the eye is an open cup without lens and the retinal rhabdoms are disorganized.
Citrate
Definition:
(n.) A salt of citric acid.
Example Sentences:
(1) During recovery glucose uptake was reduced and citrate release was unaffected.
(2) Male Sprague Dawley rats either trained (T, N = 9) for 11 wk on a rodent treadmill, remained sedentary, and were fed ad libitum (S, N = 8) or remained sedentary and were food restricted (pair fed, PF, N = 8) so that final body weights were similar to T. After training, T had significantly higher red gastrocnemius muscle citrate synthase activity compared with S and PF.
(3) The aza analogue (RS)-3-hydroxy-2,5-pyrrolidinedione-3-acetic acid (6) of the five-membered citric anhydride (2) was prepared in the sequence citric acid----2-phenyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-one-5,5-diacetic acid (1)----citric acid beta-amide (3)----6 and used to resolve ambiguities in the mechanism of the citrate synthase reaction.
(4) The sodium citrate was able to help the formation of the TNT dehydrogenase.
(5) The same ratio occurred when zinc (0 to 0.6 mM in citrate buffer) was added to semen or washed spermatozoa.
(6) Liver scintigraphy with 67-Ga citrate and alphafetoprotein (afp) determinations in the serum were carried out in 84 patients with liver mass lesions in the preceding sulphur colloid scans.
(7) Al added as AlCl3 or aluminium citrate had no effect, and there was no significant difference in the response of cells from renal failure patients with or without high serum Al levels or controls.
(8) Human fibronectin isolated from citrated blood was tested for its ability to bind to Plasmodium falciparum by an indirect immunofluorescent assay using rabbit antiserum to human fibronectin.
(9) Lactate dehydrogenase activity decreased by 21% (P less than 0.001), whereas the activities of the mitochondrial enzymes succinate dehydrogenase, citrate synthase, and beta-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase increased by 24-55% in response to training (P less than 0.001-0.05).
(10) Deviations from Michealis-Menten kinetics in the pig-heart citrate synthase (citrate-oxaloacetate-lyase(pro-3S-CH2-COO-leads to acetyl-CoA), EC 4.1.3.7) system have been characterized and analyzed in view of the kinetic theory described in the preceding paper.
(11) Citrate stabilized the activity over a wide pH region.
(12) 99mTc-PMT scintigraphy is useful in connection with 99mTc-colloid scan and sometimes with 67Ga-citrate in the diagnosis of intrahepatic masses originating from hepatocytes.
(13) Alteration in the temperature of the Isoton diluent in a Coulter model S counter over a range of possible laboratory working temperatures produced a change in the mean corpuscular volume using EDTA and dipotassium acid citrate dextrose blood and a commercial control, 4C.
(14) A simple method for distinction between RNA- and DNA-containing structures in aldehyde- and osmiumtextroxide-fixed electron microscopic autoradiographs (or ordinary thin sections) is described: the developer and the acetic acid used for processing autoradiographs extract selectively uranium acetate from DNA containing-structures which, after staining with lead citrate, leads to a characteristically 'bleached' appearance of the DNA.
(15) In the degradation reaction, formation of the symmetrically substituted citrate ester of codeine, 1, was found to predominate.
(16) Investigation identified six additional patients who had received intravenous fluid contaminated by P pickettii but did not become ill. All nine patients had had surgery, and each of these patients but only nine of 19 operated-on control patients had received intravenous fentanyl citrate in the operating room; the mean dose given to the nine case patients was far greater than that given to control patients.
(17) When whole blood preparations were used, more marked changes in both RBCs and platelets were seen in samples collected in EDTA compared with citrated samples.
(18) The active-site aspartic acid residue, Asp-362, of Escherichia coli citrate synthase was changed by site-directed mutagenesis to Glu-362, Asn-362 or Gly-362.
(19) The oxidative enzymes of the pentose phosphate pathway, ATP-citrate lyase, 'malic' enzyme and fatty acid synthetase also decrease markedly.
(20) There was a high correlation between the percentage of type I fibers and the citrate synthase activity within the vastus lateralis (r = .760) and deltoid (r = .610) (P less than 0.05) but not the gastrocnemius (r = .200).
