The hospitalist: the new addition to the inpatient management team.

To coordinate care and manage costs, physicians are being added to the inpatient management team. To assist the chief nurse executive in assimilating this new team member into the patient care provider group, the authors describe the role of the hospitalist, the goals of the organization in using the new role, questions to ask and steps to take to ensure success for the whole-care team and the organization.

Binding of nascent glucuronoxylan to the cell walls of pea seedlings.

Glucuronoxylan synthesised in vitro by membrane-bound enzymes from etiolated pea epicotyls was found to bind to isolated cell walls from the same tissue in a pH-dependant manner. The binding was maximum at pH 3.5-4.0, and decreased to zero at pH 6. The bound glucuronoxylan could be dissociated from the cell walls by washing at pH 6, and the binding appeared to be non-covalent. Extraction experiments indicated that the glucuronoxylan was binding to hemicellulose in the cell-wall. The observed binding may be significant in the process of cell-wall assembly in vivo.
