    Notes: The acute effects of intravenous isosorbide dinitrate during open heart surgery were studied in 15 adult patients. Consistent and significant (p 〈 0.001) reductions in pulmonary vascular resistance (25% before. 23% after, cardiopulmonary bypass) and mean pulmonary artery pressure (14% before, 13% after, cardiopulmonary bypass) were observed in the absence of significant changes in cardiac index, mean systemic arterial pressures or right or left atrial filling pressures. These findings indicate that after cardiopulmonary bypass, when right ventricular dysfunction with raised pulmonary vascular resistance may occur, selective reduction of right ventricular afterload with isosorbide dinitrate may prove beneficial.

    Notes: Abstract The structural behaviour of gelatins from different raw materials and manufacturing processes at thermal denaturation and isothermal dehydration and rehydration is investigated by CD. At both thermal denaturation and isothermal dehydration with all gelatins examined, the triple helix content decreases. Simultaneously, the appearance of cis peptide bonds is observed. At rehydration, a structural hysteresis occurs, the reconstitution of the triple helix structure being correlated with a decrease in the content of cis peptide bonds. The possibility of the formation of chain reversals upon destruction of the triple helix is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract The modification of the triple helical structure in aqueous gelatin solutions by changing pH and adding alkyl sulphates at 298 K and after rechilling the solution to 283 K was investigated by CD-measurement. At 298 K the triple helical content at the IEP of the gelatin has its maximum value. It is only weakly affected by adding sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDDS) at concentrations 〈10−4 M/dm3. The unfolding of the triple helix affected by pH and SDDS is reversible by rechilling the solution. The triple helical content of gelatin solutions decreases at SDDS concentrations higher than 10−4 M/dm3. In all cases the decrease of the amount of triple helical structure is connected with an increase of the cis-configuration in single chains and leads to chain reversals. At sufficiently high SDDS concentrationsβ-sheets are formed. These changes are thermally irreversible. Sodium decyl sulphate (SDS) has a more minor influence than SDDS except in the range of the c.m.c. of SDS. At sufficiently high SDS concentrations,β-turns appear.

    Notes: Abstract The interaction between cationic surfactants (hexadecyl and dodecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide) and gelatin was characterized by measuring the circular dichroism. The interaction between the cationic surfactants and gelatin is weak in comparison to that of anionic surfactants. When the concentration of cationic surfactants is sufficiently low, refolding of the gelatin-strands to the triple helical structure by rechilling the solution from 298 K to 283 K is complete. The triple helical content of the solution is affected more strongly by the cationic surfactants in acidic solution than at pHs 7 or 10. The interaction depends on the apolar group of the surfactant and is found to be stronger for DTAB than for CTAB at 298 K. Coagulation of the hydrophobic gelatin-cationic surfactant complexes does not comprise that pan of gelatin which is able to refold the triple helical structure. Therefore, the gelatin-strands of lower molecular weights are thought to react favorably with the surfactant ions.

    Notes: Abstract Using CD-measurements the influence of nonionic surfactants (dodecyl polyoxyethylene, ethoxylated para tert. octyl phenol, commercial nonionic WON 100 and octyl diethyl phosphinoxid) on the secondary structure of gelatin in aqueous solutions was investigated. At surfactant concentrations smaller than the c.m.c. the triple helical content of the gelatin is increased. At concentrations exceeding the c.m.c. the triple helical content decreases. Chain reversals of the peptide chains after the destruction of the triple helical structure were shown to appear in acidic environment at 298 K. This destruction is reversible by rechilling the solution.
