(12) Long-term-surviving rats with transplanted, ischemically damaged liver that was pretreated with CoQ10 showed a decrease in the activity of SGOT and SGPT and an increase in levels of total protein to the normal range (as well as to those levels exhibited by fresh-liver-transplanted rats) with practically no change in levels of SALP, total bilirubin, or in histologic findings.
(13) 3H-Labeled sALP was mixed with unlabeled sALP and treated with papain.
(14) sALP levels were measured at month 3 and 6 of therapy; clinical data were recorded every month.
(15) SALP was increased in 87% of the subjects during therapy with fluoride.
(16) Salps are free-swimming tunicates whose peculiar life history renders them ideal for developmental studies.
(17) Last year, the Diablo Canyon facility in California had to shut its reactor 2 after sea salp, a gelatinous, jellyfish-like organism, clogged intake pipes.
(18) Salp chains show coordinated responses but, except in their earliest developmental stages, impulses are probably not through-conducted along the chain, but are relayed from one zooid to the next by an unknown mechanism.
(19) The solitary salp reproduces asexually by budding a stolon containing the complete developmental sequence of the aggregate generation.
(20) After 6 months of therapy sALP levels were similar to the 3 month levels.
Samp
Definition:
(n.) An article of food consisting of maize broken or bruised, which is cooked by boiling, and usually eaten with milk; coarse hominy.
Example Sentences:

(4) Increase in SAMP lyase activity was noted as early as 48 to 72 hr following i.p.
(5) The high activity of adenylosuccinate (SAMP) lyase found in rat breast tumor, and its relative absence from normal rat breast tissue, suggests that it may serve as an indicator for human breast malignancy.
