磁化率能够衡量磁珠向磁力架迁移的速度,其大小取决于铁含量和氧化铁的特性。Dynabeads磁珠的磁化率是指质量磁化率,单位可以是cgs单位/g或m^3/kg(国际单位制)。对于亚铁磁性和铁磁性物质,质量磁化率取决于磁场强度(H),这些物质的磁化强度与H不是线性关系,而是随着场强增加而趋于饱和。因此, Dynabeads磁珠的质量磁化率是在固定条件下由标准操作程序而测定的。我们产品目录中给出的质量磁化率是国际单位制。磁化率由从高斯(cgs、emu)单位向国际单位的转换,是通过“高斯系数(emu/g或cgs/g)x 4π x 10^-3”而实现的。所得单位也被称为合理化质量磁化率,与(国际单位制)无量纲磁化率单位有所区别。通常,质量磁化率可用来衡量在非均匀磁场中影响物体的力(Fz)。测定Dynabeads磁珠的质量磁化率时,首先对样本称重,然后将样本放置于已知强度的磁场中。随后,再次称重得到样本重量(F1),并与关闭磁场时样本的重量(F0)进行对比。使用下述公式计算磁化率:K x 10^–3 = [(F1-F0) x m x 0.335 x 10^6],K表示质量为m的样本的质量磁化率。最后,将磁化率转换为国际单位制。
Relation of the size and intracellular sorting of apoB to the formation of VLDL 1 and VLDL 2.

PubMed ID:15520448
'In this study, we tested the hypothesis that two separate pathways, the two-step process and an apolipoprotein B (apoB) size-dependent lipidation process, give rise to different lipoproteins. Expression of apoB-100 and C-terminally truncated forms of apoB-100 in McA-RH7777 cells demonstrated that VLDL particles can be assembled by apoB size-dependent linear ... More
Cell stiffness and receptors: evidence for cytoskeletal subnetworks.

PubMed ID:15385268
'Viscoelastic models of cells often treat cells as homogeneous objects. However, studies have demonstrated that cellular properties are local and can change dramatically on the basis of the location probed. Because membrane receptors are linked in various ways to the intracellular space, with some receptors linking to the cytoskeleton and ... More
Isolation and characterization of microvessel endothelial cells from human mammary adipose tissue.
Authors:Hewett PW, Murray JC, Price EA, Watts ME, Woodcock M,
Journal:In Vitro Cell Dev Biol Anim
PubMed ID:7686548
A method for the isolation and long-term culture of human microvessel endothelial cells from mammary adipose tissue (HuMMEC) obtained at breast reduction surgery has been developed. Pure cultures of HuMMEC were isolated by sequential digestion of the fat with collagenase and trypsin followed by specific selection of microvessel fragments with ... More
Human lung microvessel endothelial cells: isolation, culture, and characterization.
Authors:Hewett PW, Murray JC,
Journal:Microvasc Res
PubMed ID:8412855
The pulmonary vasculature is of great physiological/pathological significance. We have isolated and cultured microvessel endothelial cells (HuLEC) from lung tissue obtained from lung transplant recipients by modification of published methods. Pure cultures of HuLEC were isolated by mechanical disaggregation of the tissue prior to sequential dispase and trypsin digestion to ... More
Expansion of functional endogenous antigen-specific CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells from nonobese diabetic mice.
Authors:Masteller EL, Warner MR, Tang Q, Tarbell KV, McDevitt H, Bluestone JA,
Journal:J Immunol
PubMed ID:16116193
CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (T(reg)) are critical for controlling autoimmunity. Evidence suggests that T(reg) development, peripheral maintenance, and suppressive function are dependent on Ag specificity. However, there is little direct evidence that the T(reg) responsible for controlling autoimmunity in NOD mice or other natural settings are Ag specific. In fact, ... More
