In this paper, the purification and biochemical characterization of the endogenous oyster (Crassostrea gigas) trypsin inhibitor were researched. A oyster trypsin inhibitor(OTI)has been purified by successive ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration, affinity chromatography and high performance reversed-phase liquid chromatography. OTI has a molecular weight of approximately 5036 Da estimated by high performance size exclusive liquid chromatography. OTI was heat-, acid- and basic-stable competitive trypsin inhibitor. And OTI was double-head inhibitor with the inhibition constant (Ki) value of 1.644×10-2 mmol L-1. OTI was composed of nine kinds of amino acid, and rich in cysteine, alanine and glutamic acid. Furthermore, OTI can inhibit the proliferations of human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cell and human cervical cancer Hela cell

The effect of C-18 silica gel surface coverage on the retention behaviour of some estrone derivatives in reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography has been studied. Two commercial columns with different C-18 coverage, Spherisorb ODS-1(8 % carbon content) and Li Chrosorb RP-18(22% carbon content), using methanol-water as the eluent, were used.

ABSTRACT Degradation of tracer during a radioimmunoassay (RIA) can result in false-positive concentrations of immunoreactivity being reported in a biological sample. A technique has been developed using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to detect proteolytic degradation of corticotrophin-releasing factor-41 (CRF-41) during incubation with tissue extracts under RIA conditions. Human pancreatic tissue was extracted in HCl or urea and incubated with 125I-labelled CRF-41 at neutral pH for 18 h. When samples were analysed by HPLC and fractions counted for radioactivity, tracer was extensively degraded. Heating extracts at 85 °C or adding lima bean trypsin inhibitor to the medium prevented degradation. Pancreatic tissue extracted in HCl was analysed by gel filtration and HPLC, and fractions were subjected to RIA for CRF-41. A peak of immunoreactivity was detected by both chromatographic methods. However, when this material was incubated with tracer and analysed by HPLC, the tracer was degraded, indicating that proteolytic activity remained after acid extraction and two forms of chromatography.
