  • (17) Injections of ovine prolactin during the pause-inducing procedure significantly reduced the subsequent rate of loss of primary wing feathers, suggesting that in certain physiological states, PRL may function to suppress molting.
  • (18) 1-beta-D-Arabinofuranosyl-E-5-(2-bromovinyl)uracil (BV-araU) and E-5-(2-bromovinyl)uracil, a metabolite of BV-araU, did not affect either the anti-human immunodeficiency virus activity or the cytotoxicity of azidothymidine in MT-4 and MOLT-4 cells.
  • (19) After the L1 molt, energy metabolism in animals destined to become dauer larvae diverges from that of animals committed to growth.
  • (20) Thus, one may deduce that stopped larvae could have low levels of ecdysone, and perhaps these are the ultimate physiological cause of their arrested development before the critical larva-pupa molt.

Molten


Definition:

  • (p. p.) of Melt
  • (a.) Melted; being in a state of fusion, esp. when the liquid state is produced by a high degree of heat; as, molten iron.
  • (a.) Made by melting and casting the substance or metal of which the thing is formed; as, a molten image.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) In this study of ten consecutive patients sustaining molten metal injuries to the lower extremity who were treated with excision and grafting, treatment with compression Unna paste boot was compared with that with conventional dressing.
  • (2) These flaws were controlled by cooling the metal mold assembly and the cast immediately after the pouring of the molten cerrobend alloy, evenly with water.

  • (4) Bacteriocin producer strains were grown (37degrees C) anaerobically on brain heart infusion-yeast extract agar for 18 h. Bacteriocin indicator strains were suspended to molten brain heart infusion-yeast extract agar and then overlayed onto the producer strain.
  • (5) The changes of T1 and T2 were treated based on the assumption of two types of molecular motions: (1) isotropic "slow" motions with times approximately greater than 10(-8) s (including the rotation of a molecule as a whole) and (2) anisotropic "fast" motions with times approximately less than 10(-10) s. Experimental data show an essential increase of the scale of intramolecular mobility for the majority of side groups upon transition of the protein from the native to the molten globule state.
  • (6) Disks cut from each device were attached to the sawed-off ends of 10 ml syringes and dipped in a beaker containing either butoconazole nitrate cream or a molten wax insert.
  • (7) This model predicted that PEG enhanced refolding of CAB occurred by a specific interaction of PEG with the molten globule first intermediate to form a nonassociating complex which continued to fold at the same rate as the first intermediate.
  • (8) The following regimes are outlined: 1. the "wet" molten globule, i.e., the compact state with pores occupied by solvent; 2. the swollen globule ("wet," of course); and 3. the coil.
  • (9) The theory also predicts two populations of denatured species, one open and the other more compact, with densities in the range found experimentally for molten globular states.

  • (17) The source of contamination was sought and it was found that the stone of the mill had been repaired with molten lead on the same day that the wheat of the family had been ground; while grinding the wheat some lead was mixed into the flour.
  • (18) This alternatively folded state exhibits certain characteristics of the molten globule but differs distinctly from it by its extraordinary structural stability that is characteristic for native protein structures.
