Mammalian browsers frequently encounter secondary metabolites such as tannins. Browsers may bind these tannins using salivary proteins, while mammalian grazers likely would not. Controlling for phylogeny, we ran inhibition radial diffusion assays of the saliva of 28 species of African herbivores (browsers, grazers, ruminants, and nonruminants) that ...

Isolation and partial characterization of two porcine spleen ferritin fractions with different electrophoretic mobility [PDF]
Ferritin isolated from porcine spleen could routinely be separated in two fractions on nondenaturating gradient gels. Both fractions could be isolated with a purity of 96% when applied to two serially linked columns, each 200 cm in length, packed ...
