A Requirement for Fatty Acid Oxidation in the Hormone-Induced Meiotic Maturation of Mouse Oocytes [PDF]
We have previously shown that fatty acid oxidation (FAO) is required for AMP-activated protein kinase (PRKA)-induced maturation in vitro. In the present study, we have further investigated the role of this metabolic pathway in hormone-induced meiotic ...

Relative utilization of free palmitic acid, glyceryl palmitate and ethyl palmitate by dogs [PDF]
Digestibility of fats depends on several factors which may be grouped as: (1) mechanical, e. g., melting point which determines the rate of gastric discharge1 and, to a considerable extent, the degree of emulsification; and (2) chemical which determines the character of the products of digestion and the rate of hydrolysis, certain esters of fatty acids,

Spectroscopic detection of carbon nanotube interaction with amphiphilic molecules in epoxy resin composites [PDF]
Incorporation of carbon nanotubes into epoxy resin composites has the effect of increasing electrical conductivity at low percolation levels. An amphiphilic molecule such as palmitic acid has been used to increase the surface contact area and improve ...

A Mutant of Arabidopsis Deficient in the Elongation of Palmitic Acid [PDF]
The overall fatty acid composition of leaf lipids in a mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana was characterized by an increased level of 16:0 and a concomitant decrease of 18-carbon fatty acids as a consequence of a single recessive nuclear mutation at the fab1 locus.

Changes of fatty acid metabolism and oxidative phosphorylation of rat liver mitochondria during 3'-Me-DAB feeding [PDF]
Respiration, activity of oleate oxidation and composition of the total fatty acids of rat liver were investigated in 3'-Me-DAB feeding. 1. Oxidative phosphorylation of rat liver mitochondria decreased temporarily at relatively earlier stages (about 2 to ...
