(9) We describe a "high-performance" liquid-chromatographic assay for simultaneously determining propisomide and its mono-N-dealkylated metabolite in plasma and urine.
(10) CO2 production from and uptake of alpha-glyceryl mono (palmitate-1-14C) were studied in an in vitro system using minced rat lung.
(11) In all cases, the intensity decreased with pH, as predicted from the known properties of FITC mono- and dianions.
(12) Subdividing the A and A+C responsive neurones according to their mono- (M) or polysynaptic (P) connexions yielded the following sub-samples: MC, 39%; PC, 15%; MA, 13%; PA, 33%.
(13) IL-2 prepared from T-cell hybridomas and from Con A activated rat spleen cells was partially purified using Ultrogel AcA 54 chromatography and ion exchange chromatography on Mono Q or chromatofocusing on Mono P. When analyzed on Mono P, IL-2 activity derived from IA2-B10 T-cell hybridoma eluted as a single peak with pH range 6.9-7.1, whereas IL-2 derived from Con A activated spleen cells resolved into four peaks within the following pH range: 7.1-7.2, 6.5-6.6, 6.1-6.2, and 5.6-5.7.

(15) The following processes are discussed in this article: enzyme-catalysed hydrolyses of carboxylic acid esters and amides, phosphate esters, nitriles and epoxides; esterification and inter-esterification reactions catalysed by enzymes; reduction of ketones to secondary alcohols using whole-cell systems or isolated dehydrogenases; oxidation of alicyclic and aromatic substrates using mono-oxygenases and dioxygenases in bacteria and fungi including enzyme-catalysed Baeyer-Villiger oxidations; aldol reactions, formation of optically active cyanohydrins and enzyme-catalysed acyloin type reactions.
