Promoting nursing's health care agenda through collaboration.

Hawken, NLN's President, and Hillestad, confirm the wave of nursing practice and education collaboration that has grown over the last decade. They describe the movement of one school and its related practice settings in achieving true colleagueship within the nursing community. Goals of practice and education, once seen as separate if not conflicting, are seen to be coming together in this era.

Structural studies of water-soluble glycoproteins from Cannabis sativa L.

Two carbohydrate-protein fractions, isolated from Cannabis sativa L. by extraction with water and chromatography of DEAE-cellulose, contained arabinose, galactose, glucose, mannose, galacturonic acid, 2-acetamido-2-deoxyglucose, and 2-acetamido-2-deoxygalactose. The structure of the carbohydrate moieties was investigated by methylation analysis and Smith degradation. A high percentage of end-groups indicates a large degree of branching, glucose and galactose being the main branch-points, linked at C-3 and C6. The hexoses are also present as unbranched residues in the chain, largely as (1 leads to 3)- and (1 leads to 4)-linked units and as end-groups. Arabinofuranosyl units constitute the main part of the non-reducing end-groups, and are also present as part of the chain. The polysaccharide chains are probably linked to protein through the hydroxyl group of hydroxyproline.
