What's the difference between nitrocellulose and pyroxylin?

Nitrocellulose


Definition:

  • (n.) See Gun cotton, under Gun.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Glycoproteins were isolated by lectin affinity chromatography or by elution from nitrocellulose membranes.
  • (2) Clone 35 recognized live schistosomula and produced Il-2 when presented a 27-kDa protein from nitrocellulose.
  • (3) Enzyme activities were measured on nitrocellulose blots by using pure enzyme preparations as well as Triton X-100-solubilized membranes.
  • (4) The method has been modified to use more dilute solutions of ECL substrate to reduce the background, can be applied to a standard nitrocellulose membrane, and used with Kodak X-ray film.
  • (5) Some antibodies and other proteins bind tightly to nitrocellulose and dissociation of these proteins by Tween 20 is barely detectable.
  • (6) The binding of the dinucleotide 5'-triphosphate to EF-1 was also demonstrated directly by the nitrocellulose retention method and by Sephadex G-50 fractionation using a radioactive analog iodinated with 125I in the 5 position of the cytosine of pppGpC.
  • (7) The nitrocellulose sheets were treated with antiserum to the 70 kD, 145 kD and 210 kD neurofilament proteins by the immunoblot technique.
  • (8) Streptavidin mediates the immobilization on biotinylated nitrocellulose membranes.
  • (9) A simple method of affinity purification, using antigen bound to nitrocellulose, is employed to remove the reactivity with these extraneous bands from immune sera.
  • (10) Nitrocellulose filter binding assays, thermal denaturation studies and spectrofluorimetry of the complexes revealed the existence of specific and nonspecific interactions.
  • (11) dUMP binary complex can be isolated and conveniently assayed by nitrocellulose disc filtration using [6-3H]dUMP as the radioactive ligand.
  • (12) Both capped and uncapped mRNAs interact directly with eIF-4B to form a stable complex, which can be detected by a simple nitrocellulose filter binding assay.
  • (13) The amplified sequence can then be recognized by hybridization with a specific probe after transfer onto nitrocellulose or nylon paper.
  • (14) Both the cellular and nitrocellulose-bound assays are rapid, inexpensive, and easy to perform, offering advantages for use in clinical laboratories.
  • (15) Treatment of nitrocellulose blots of electrophoretograms with glucosidases had no effect on incorporated counts, confirming that the labelled bands were not due to protein bound glycogen.
  • (16) Improved methods for high resolution composite gel electrophoresis under dissociating conditions and electrophoretic transfer of immunoglobulins (Mr 150,000-1,800,000) to nitrocellulose have been developed.
  • (17) Leukocyte microsomal HMG-CoA reductase, first immobilized onto a nitrocellulose filter, is sequentially reacted with 1) monospecific, polyclonal rabbit anti-rat liver HMG-CoA reductase antiserum, which crossreacts with the human liver and leukocyte enzymes; 2) biotinylated donkey anti-rabbit immunoglobulin; 3) a streptavidin-horseradish peroxidase conjugate; and 4) 4-chloro-1-naphthol and H2O2 to visualize the quantity of horseradish peroxidase bound to the immunocomplex.
  • (18) This fraction can be isolated by nitrocellulose filtration because the polypeptide-associated DNA fragments are retained on nitrocellulose filters while bulk DNA passes through the filters.
  • (19) Using photolyase purified to homogeneity, we have investigated in vitro the first step of the reaction, DNA binding; enzyme-DNA complex formation was quantitated by the nitrocellulose filter binding assay.
  • (20) Either whole plasma or platelet lysates were electrophoresed on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gels and transferred to nitrocellulose membranes by electroblotting.

Pyroxylin


Definition:

  • (n.) A substance resembling gun cotton in composition and properties, but distinct in that it is more highly nitrified and is soluble in alcohol, ether, etc.; -- called also pyroxyle.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Collodion is a solution of pyroxylin in a solution of 75% ether and 25% alcohol.
