Heavy metal mobility and valuable contents of processed municipal solid waste incineration residues from Southwestern Germany.

As conventional end-of-life disposal, municipal solid waste (MSW) incineration residues can be problematic due to potential release of toxic compounds into the environment. Using municipal solid waste incineration residues as urban-mine of valuable metals (e.g.

Glial and neuronal regulation of the lipid carrier R-FABP.

Neuroembryogenesis critically depends on signaling molecules that modulate cell proliferation, differentiation, and the formation of neural networks. In an attempt to identify potential morphogenetic active components that are distributed in a graded fashion in the developing nervous system, we generated substraction libraries of the embryonic nasal and temporal chick retina. Selected clones were analyzed by sequencing, Northern and Western blotting, in situ hybridization, and immunocytochemistry.
