Abstract An improved enzymatic method for the synthesis of adenylylsulfate (APS) from adenosine 5′-phosphate using APS-reductase from Thiobacillus denitrificans is described. Isolation of millimole quantitities of this sulfur nucleotide is achieved rapidly by means of ion exchange chromatography on a strongly basic ion exchange resin. A facile and reproducible desalting procedure is described.

The organic matrix components of a fossil ammonoid shell from the Upper Cretaceous, can be separated into sub-fractions which are generally comparable to those found in extant Nautilus, using ion exchange chromatography. This suggests that at least portions of these components are sufficiently well preserved to interact characteristically with the ion exchange resin. Amino acid compositions of these sub-fractions, however, do not resemble Nautilus organic matrix sub-fractions, indicating that considerable diagenetic alteration of this material has taken place.

The separation of a carnation virus from smaller cowpea-host antigens was achieved by column chromatography on a strongly basic ion-exchange resin. The separation was demonstrated by infectivity and serological tests, analytical ultracentrifugation, and ultraviolet spectrophotometry. The method is proposed for the removal of similar host components from preparations of other spherical plant viruses.

In the present work, the effect of bed expansion on BSA adsorption on Amberlite IRA 410 ion-exchange resin was studied. The hydrodynamic behavior of an expanded bed adsorption column on effects of the biomolecules and salt addition and temperature were studied to optimize the conditions for BSA recovery on ion-exchange resin. Residence time distribution showed that HEPT, axial dispersion and the Pecletl number increased with temperature and bed height, bed voidage and linear velocity. The binding capacity of the resin increased with bed height. The Amberlite IRA 410 ion-exchange showed an affinity for BSA with a recovery yield of 78.36 % of total protein.

Abstract When a series of patients' urine samples supplemented in vitro with chlorpromazine or imipramine was assayed with the Forrest qualitative assays, we observed an occasional false-negative result, which we found was attributable to interference by ascorbic acid. It interferes with the reagent, not with the analytes, in both assays. We easily eliminated this interference with the phenothiazine test by using an anion-exchange resin. Eliminating the interference with the assay for imipramine, however, is more difficult; false-negative results can be obtained even after ion-exchange chromatography if the imipramine concentration is less than 50 mg/L.

SummaryThe rapid isolation of major bovine caseins in gram quantities was investigated. Whole casein was precipitated from individual cow's milk by adjusting the pH to 4·6 and the precipitated casein was suspended in 4·5 M urea (pH 8·0) containing 0·02 M imidazole and 0·03 M β-mercaptoethanol, and bound on a QAE Zeta Prep 250 cartridge. Stepwise elution with the urea/imidazole β-mercaptoethanol buffer and varying amounts of NaCl gave five well resolved peaks, which were identified by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and fast protein liquid chromatography to be pure γ-casein, κ-casein. β-casein, β-casein and αs-casein, respectively. The ion exchange cartridge was regenerated by flushing with buffer containing 0·50 Μ-NaCl followed by equilibration with starting buffer before separation of next sample. The time required to run each sample including cartridge regeneration and equilibration was 4 hours.

AbstractFour methods for 90Sr separation from spent ion-exchange resin samples were carried out, offering a useful methodology to achieve interferences free 90Sr fractions. The four methods consist in resin sample decomposition, pre-treatment and selective separation of 90Sr by using: (a) a single chromatographic extraction process, (b) double chromatographic extraction, (c) a single chromatographic extraction process followed in sequence by two precipitations, and (d) ion-exchange chromatography, followed by extraction chromatography and precipitation. Mineralization by microwave acid digestion and the four 90Sr separation methods thoroughly presented are available. Data processing methods (adjustable modified efficiency tracing – a new improved approach for the efficiency tracing LSC technique, non-linear regression and α-β discrimination) to obtain the activities values of α, β-γ, pure β emitters and the evaluation of chemical recovery yield of strontium were presented. A discussion about activity assessment in 90Sr purified fractions, providing a convincing argument to support the accuracy of the 90Sr separation methods, is also offered.

Mixtures of the radionuclides Na22 and Na24, as the chloride salts, have been partially separated by chromatographic methods. A column 102 cm. in length containing the cation exchange resin Dowex 50 was used. The eluant was 0.7 M hydrochloric acid. Na22 is held more strongly by the resin than is Na24. The most effective separations were obtained at 25 °C and 5.5 °C.; experiments at 48 °C and 68 °C showed much smaller isotope effects.
