Nature of adenosine triphosphatase accelerating peptide from hydrolysate of fur seal muscle.

Ultrafiltered fur seal muscle hydrolysate was divided into eleven fractions by gel filtration on Sephadex G-15. One of the fractions (Fraction G9) accelerated the ATPase activity of carp myosin B to a rate about two-fold faster than that of the control. Fraction G9 showed a single ninhydrin spot in its silica gel thin layer chromatograph, and gave a positive test for tryptophan by the p-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde method, while tests for tyrosine, and for arginine were negative. The ion exchange amino acid analysis of its acid hydrolysate showed a predominant content of lysine, nearly equivalent to the amount of tryptophan determined from its UV absorbancy and the p-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde method. The N-terminal amino acid analysis gave di-DNP-Lys as the sole DNP-amino acid. The structure of the ATPase accelerating peptide fraction, Fraction G9, was deduced to be Lys-Trp.

A new bubble oxygenator (OCVC oxygenator): development and clinical application.

A new bubble oxygenator, designed for simple operation and clinical efficacy in intracardiac surgery, has been developed and clinically evaluated. This device is characterized by an oxygenating chamber with controllable blood-volume, integral heat exchanger and two-stage microfilter of gravity drainage system, an apparatus for creating and uniformly distributing oxygen bubbles, and construction materials of the device known to be minimally traumatic to the blood. Clinical experience in 132 infantile and pediatric open heart procedures has demonstrated its effectiveness as measured by embolic complications and simplicity in maintaining physiologic blood gas levels.
