Chemically sensitive high throughput parallel analysis of solid phase supported library members
This paper introduces Fourier transform infrared imaging as a powerful spectroscopic tool for the parallel identification of members of resin-supported combinatorial libraries. This technique combines the chemical specificity and high sensitivity of FTIR with the ability to rapidly analyze multiple supported resin beads simultaneously. It is shown here that the chemical identity of ligands on a variety of supported resin beads can be identified in a single experiment without destroying or otherwise perturbing the system.

Modification of fatty acid composition of rat heart lipids by feeding cod liver oil.
Modification of the fatty acid composition of cardiac phospholipids and neutral lipids was studied in rats fed a diet containing 10% cod liver oil. The results reflect the dynamic state of esterified fatty acids in neutral lipids and phospholipids of heart muscle. In cardiac neutral lipids there was a moderate but significant increase in exogenous fatty acids, 20:1(n--9), 22:1(n--11), 20:5(n--3) and 22:6(n--3), in animals fed cod liver oil, and a relative decrease in endogenous fatty acids, 16:0, 18:2(n--6 and 20:4(n--6). Increased dietary availability of 22: 6(n--3) resulted in a major increase in the content of this fatty acid in phospholipids and replacement of 18:2(n--6) and 20:4(n--6). The 22:6(n--3) was able to replace one third of 18:2(n--6): further increase in 22: 6n--3) was accompanied by a decrease in 18:0. An inverse relationship between (n--6) and (n--3) polyene fatty acids in cardiac phospholipids suggests a replacement of (n--6) acids by (n--3) fatty acids.

Role of myocardial lipids in development of cardiac necrosis.
Significant alterations in fatty acyl composition of cardiac phospholipids and neutral lipids are induced by dietary cod liver oil in the rat. Increased dietary availability of docosahexaenoic acid (22:6 omega3) leads to extensive replacement of linoleic acid (18:2omega6) and arachidonic acid (20:4omega6) in phospholipids. Dietary cod liver oil (10%) reduces isoproterenol stress tolerance and results in increased development of cardiac necrosis and mortality following isoproterenol treatment. It is suggested that diminished catecholamine stress tolerance may be related to altered synthesis of prostaglandins or related products.
