The effects of allyl alcohol, galactosamine, bromobenzene, and corn oil administration were evaluated in male Fischer 344 rats at 4 to 5, 14 to 15, and 24 to 25 months of age to determine if susceptibility to hepatotoxic injury is modified as a consequence of aging. Parameters measured were (1)
Ustilago maydis is an edible parasitic basidiomycete, which specifically infects corn (Zea mays) and teocintle (Z. diploperennis). To characterise the interaction between the basidiomycete and its host organism, we tested the effect of plant lectins with well-known sugar specificity on the growth
Lectins extracted from corn (Zea mays L.) kernel with Tris-HCl buffer pH 7.5 were isolated from the crude extract by affinity chromatography on Sepharose 6B-N-acetyl-d-galactosamine and Sepharose 6B-methylalpha-d-mannoside, and also by lectin affinity chromatography using concanavalin A and Lens
