Most applications of affinity chromatography employ the cyanogen bromide activation scheme first devised by Axèn et al. (1967). Porath and Sundberg (1972) reported an alternative procedure in which phloroglucinol and divinylsulphone are used in activating reactions. The advantages of this scheme and parameters relevant to the activating reactions are reported here. Conditions for he attachment of various ligand molecules to sepharose using a divinylsulphone activation method are defined, and a comparison with cyanogen bromide activating and coupling techniques is drawn. α-Chymotrypsin is immobilized by covalent attachment to activated sepharose. The optimum coupling pH is 8.0-.6 and the reaction is virtually complete after 20 h at room temperature. Conjugates containing as much as 2 g of enzyme per gram dry weight of polymer were obtained. The immobilized enzyme retained 41% of the free enzymic activity. An affinity column of divinylsulphone-activated methicillin-sepharose was used to demonstrate the reversible adsorption of penicillinase. © 1976 ASEG.

A procedure for the purification of β-lactamase from Bacillus cereus in a single chromatographic step is described. The enzyme is isolated from the crude culture supernatant by affinity chromatography. An inhibitor, methicillin, was immobilised by covalent attachment to the insoluble column gel, Sepharose. The enzyme was adsorbed to the column ligand from the crude supernatant and was subsequently released by increasing the ionic strength of the eluting buffer. In this way the enzyme was selectively isolated from other proteins in the crude supernatant. About 98% of the original β-lactamase activity was recovered in the purified enzyme fraction. © 1976.

This paper uses methods from the spectral theory of partially ordered sets to clarify and extend some recent results concerning approximately finite-dimensional C*-algebras. An extremely explicit de­scription is obtained of the Jacobson topology on the primitive ideal space, and it is shown that this topology has a basis of quasi-compact open sets. In addition, the main results of [4] are proved using only elementary means. © 1976 American Mathematical Society.

For a left-continuous random walk, absorbing at 0, the joint distribution of the maximum and time to absorption is derived. A description of the tails of the distributions and a conditional limit theorem are obtained for the cases where absorption is certain.

The distribution, biomass and density of various beds of P. australis have been determined for Botany Bay (N.S.W.). Comparisons have been made with sites at Broken Bay, Port Hacking and Jervis Bay and these include observations of other seagrass beds (Zostera capricorni, Heterozostera tasmanica, Halophila ovalis and Halophila decipiens). The P. australis plants observed were all of the broad-leaved (1.0-1.2 cm) variety. The length of leaves appears to be correlated with depth and with degree of exposure to wave action. The distribution of P. australis in Botany Bay is almost entirely restricted to the southern side and is limited to a maximum depth of −3 m compared with −7 to −9 m at other sites. The growth of plants in well-established beds seems to be as vigorous in Botany Bay as elsewhere but flowering is poor and infrequent and the overgrowth of epiphytes is very great at certain seasons. Clearing experiments in Botany Bay indicate that recolonization by surrounding plants or seedlings is extremely slow. Transplant experiments indicate that mature plants will survive transplanting to cleared sites on both the northern and southern sides of the Bay. Evidence for a much more extensive distribution of P. australis in Botany Bay in times past and the possible effects of pollution are discussed. © 1976 ASEG.

The Carrai Granodiorite is an intrusive magmatic pluton with steeply dipping margins surrounded by a well-developed contact metamorphic aureole. Emplacement of the body was accompanied by little distortion of neighbouring rocks and involved vertical displacement of pre-existing material. Scarcity of country rock blocks, and the presence of numerous dioritic xenoliths indicate that stoping was unimportant, and the pluton was accommodated in the upper crust by vertical uplift of earlier rocks (‘block elevation’). A close relationship existed between faulting and granodiorite emplacement. Deep shears possibly account for the generation of the linear zone of plutons in which the Granodiorite is located. © 1976, Cambridge University Press. All rights reserved.

Sedimentation equilibrium is first considered of a system in which a ligand of any size binds to an acceptor at p sites, the experimental result, obtained with either interference or absorption optics, being a distribution of total solute concentration as a function of radial distance. Theory illustrated by a numerical example, is presented which shows that this distribution may be analysed to give the activity of the unbound ligand as a function of total weight concentration. It is shown that this information may be used together with conservation of mass equations written in terms of the initial mixing composition to evaluate the equilibrium constant(s) relevant to the system. Correlation with composition evaluation by use of absorption optics (when possible) is also discussed. The procedure does not involve solution of simultaneous equations which are sums of exponentials nor differentiation of experimental results to obtain apparent weight-average molecular weights. It is general in that it leads to the evaluation of the activity of the species characterized by the smallest M(l-Image ?) product and, accordingly, is shown to be useful in the analysis of non-interacting as well as of interacting systems.

Equations are developed in closed form which permit the simulation of the distribution of total concentration vs. radial distance obtainable in the sedimentation equilibrium of a system of specified initial concentration undergoing indefinite self-association. Simulated distributions obtained with a variety of systems involving one or more equilibrium constants are used to test an analysis procedure which fits the distribution to a function capable of inverse Laplace transformation and leads to a specification of the relative amounts of the species in the cell as a function of their molecular weights. It is shown that such results may be related to the equilibrium concentrations of oligomeric forms at each radial distance, thereby permitting successive equilibrium constants appropriate to the indefinite self-association to be estimated.
