Photic zone euxinia during the Permian-triassic superanoxic event.

Carbon and sulfur isotopic data, together with biomarker and iron speciation analyses of the Hovea-3 core that was drilled in the Perth Basin, Western Australia, indicate that euxinic conditions prevailed in the paleowater column during the Permian-Triassic superanoxic event. Biomarkers diagnostic for anoxygenic photosynthesis by Chlorobiaceae are particularly abundant at the boundary and into the Early Triassic. Similar conditions prevailed in the contemporaneous seas off South China.

5alpha-dihydrotestosterone-binding proteins and androgen sensitivity in prostatic cancers of Copenhangen rats.

A line (R-3327-A) of androgen-insensitive squamous cell carcinomas of the prostate of Copenhagen rats has been derived from an established line (R-3327) of androgen-responsive tumors R-3327 A tummors have a growth rate of approximately 10 times that of R-3327. The response of R=3327 A to hormonal environment has been determined by measuring the growth rate of the tumor transplanted to males, females, and castrated males. No great differences were observed.
