...S. Lerman; P. Mehta; H.A. Jones The de-aggregation and re-aggregation of α-crystallin derived from the dogfish and from the bovine lenses was studied by means of ultracentrifugation, ORD and CD spectroscopy, and by 2 immuno-chemical methods; the Ouchterlony technique and the quantitative complement...

...Jitka Čejková; Alena Bolková The non-swelling properties of dogfish corneas were studied using histochemical and biochemical methods for estimating acid mucopolysaccharides. Immersion of the corneas in distilled water caused loss of their final weight. This can be attributed to separation...

...J. Obenberger; J. Čejková; A. Bolková; A. Babický Corneas of the dogfish ( Scyliorhinus canicula L.), with and without epithelium, were excised and immersed in different aqueous solutions, i. e. distilled water, 0.9% solution of NaCl, artificial dogfish aqueous humor, and sea water. Weights...

...J. Obenberger; A. Bolková; J. Čejková; A. Babický Cornea of the dogfish ( Scyliorhinus canicula L.), with and without epithelium, were excised in solutions of different pH. The dogfish cornea was capable of swelling in acidic solutions, degree of swelling being highest at pH 3.0 from the studied...

...S. Lerman; Ah Ti Tan; Diana Louis; Marsha Hollander The high molar absorptivity (at 280 nm of γ-crystallin and the insoluble protein fraction derived from the ocular lens of the dogfish is due to the presence of a fluorescent compound. The fluorogen was isolated and purified and partially...

...P.D. Mehta; S. Lerman The relationship between soluble and insoluble proteins in the bovine, human and dogfish lens has been studied by immuno-electrophoresis and urea starch gel electrophoresis at pH 3.0. The result from the immuno-electrophoresis experiment indicated that insoluble protein...
