Sulphate


Definition:

  • (n.) A salt of sulphuric acid.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Sixteen smooth Brucella strains were lysed and digested by proteinase K, and the LPS fractions analysed by sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.
  • (2) The decomposition of nafcillin and penicillin G solutions was hastened significantly by magnesium sulphate due to effect on the pH values of the solutions.
  • (3) The K5 polysaccharide was N-deacetylated (by hydrazinolysis) and N-sulphated, and was then incubated with detergent-solubilized enzymes from a heparin-producing mouse mastocytoma, in the presence of adenosine 3'-phosphate 5'-phospho[35S] sulphate ([35S]PAPS).
  • (4) Plasma noradrenaline levels were depressed by 50% when demedullated fetuses were also subject to peripheral sympathectomy by guanethidine sulphate treatment.
  • (5) Chemically isolated separate preparations of the non-aggregating protein-chondroitin-keratin sulphate (PCKS) fraction from the hyaline cartilage and hyaluronic acid (HUA) of the vitreous body and of the umbilicus were investigated by electron microscopy.
  • (6) Granules in a few cells also contained sulphated mucin.
  • (7) Deficiency of glucosamine-6-sulphatase activity leads to the lysosomal storage of the glycosaminoglycan, heparan sulphate and the monosaccharide sulphate N-acetylglucosamine 6-sulphate and the autosomal recessive genetic disorder mucopolysaccharidosis type IIID.

Laminin was generally noted in association with Schwann cells, but collagen IV occurred with perineural cells.
  • (11) Ammonium sulphate fractionation followed by immunoaffinity chromatography on a three column system using Protein A-Sepharose coupled D5, produced purified p29.

  • (13) Platelet factor 4 was compared with protamine sulphate, which has similar biological properties, by electrophoresis at pH 2.2, in which both migrated as single bands but with differing mobility, and by amino acid analysis which showed a more normal distribution of residues than occurred in protamine sulphate.
  • (14) (a) Ammonium sulphate precipitation and gel filtration on Sepharose 4B.
