in complex systems are well understood. Heat production is closely related to catabolic …

This report describes two human fatalities from chlordane poisoning. One of these was caused
by absorption of accidentally spilled chlordane; in the second case the patient swallowed …

IN a recent communication, Stoward 1 presented data on heat production during the growth
of Aerobacter aerogenes with the view of contributing information on Prigogine's 2 …

A rapidly recording stopped-flow apparatus has been used to measure the rate of reactions
catalysed by carbonic anhydrase. The method allows high concentrations of enzyme to be …

… Cells grown exponentially with the energy source limiting growth have no detectable
endogenous metabolism and no period ofconstant glycolytic activity (Forrest and Walker, in press). …

Growing cultures of Streptococcus faecalis at temperatures above 30 C have activation energies
for both rates of growth and glycolysis of 10.3 kcal mole −1 , and a constant growth yield…
