铁对仔猪的营养生理及临床意义

动物体由诸多元素组成。铁作为猪体的必需微量元素,由于其重要的生理、生化作用及临床治疗效能,继1848年Claude Bernard首先以静脉注射铁剂治疗动物疾病以来,仔猪缺铁及缺铁性贫血引起了养猪界同仁的高度重视。本文拟从铁对仔猪的营养、生理及临床意义等方面谈谈自己的肤浅看法,与同仁切磋。 1 铁在仔猪体内的分布、含量与功能 1.1 分布 仔猪体内的铁60—70％以血红蛋白(Hb)的形式存在于红细胞中(每个Hb     

Heterogeneous and epitaxial nucleation of protein crystals on mineral surfaces

Fifty different mineral samples were tested as potential heterogeneous or epitaxial nucleants for four commonly crystallized proteins. It was found, by conventional protein crystallization techniques, that for each protein there was a set of mineral substrates that promoted nucleation of crystals at lower critical levels of supersaturation than required for spontaneous growth. Numerous examples, involving all four proteins, were observed of modification of crystal habit and, in some cases, unit cell properties promoted by the presence of the mineral nucleants. In at least one case, the growth of lysozyme on the mineral apophyllite, it was shown by lattice analysis and x-ray diffraction that the nucleation and growth of the protein crystal on the mineral was likely to involve a direct lattice match.
