  Lysis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Lysis (Greek lusis from luein = to separate) refers to the death of a cell by bursting, often by viral or osmotic mechanisms that compromise the integrity of the cellular membrane.
Viral lysis is the dissolution of cells by the action of a specific cytolysin, a substance that explicitly causes the death of the cell.
Cytolysis is caused by excessive osmosis, or movement of water, towards the inside of a cell.

 Tumor lysis syndrome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In medicine (oncology and hematology), tumor lysis syndrome is a complication of chemotherapy to particularly large tumors (e.g.
Blood tests done when tumor lysis syndrome is suspected generally include full blood count, renal function (creatinine), electrolytes, blood urea nitrogen, uric acid, calcium, phosphate, and albumin (to correct calcium levels).
Oddly, gout is not a feature of tumor lysis; the high uric acid levels that cause gout probably need to be present for an extended period of time before the putative crystals can develop.

 Lysis of Epidural Adhesions
Lysis of epidural adhesions, using fluoroscopic guidance, with epidural injections of hypertonic saline in conjunction with steroids and analgesics has been investigated as a treatment option.
Since lysis of the fibrosis is often incomplete after one treatment session, the procedure is frequently repeated at three months.
Epidural lysis of adhesions is discussed in chapters of textbooks and in numerous review articles; however, the absence of controlled trials makes scientific conclusions impossible regarding its efficacy.

Lysis then asks why his parents restrict his actions not because of his age, but because of his understanding (for example, he understands how to read and play the lyre, but not how to drive a chariot).
Lysis agrees to all of Socrates's statements, and Socrates wraps up this line of questioning by confirming that Lysis has no wisdom yet on the basis that Lysis "requires" a teacher.
Lysis is shown to be the properly shy object of the affections of the men (see Lover in the Terms list), and Socrates is shown not to be hindering the boys from their civic obligations.

 Elitek™ Approved by FDA for Tumor Lysis Syndrome
Tumor lysis syndrome is most often caused by the sudden, rapid death of cells, particularly cancer cells, in response to cancer therapies.
Some patients with tumor lysis syndrome may have initial symptoms including nausea and vomiting, shortness of breath and lethargy, irregular heartbeat and cardiac dysfunction, clouding of urine, impairment and loss of consciousness and/or joint discomfort.
However, tumor lysis syndrome is a preventable and treatable condition, particularly in its early stages.

Le Lysis (ou Sur l’Amitié) est un dialogue de Platon.
Lysis : Lysis, un jeune garçon charmant semblant paré de toutes les vertus physiques et morales, est le fils de Démocrate d’Aixonè.
Lysis trouve immédiatement la réponse attendue : c’est qu’il est savant dans certaines matières et encore ignorant dans d’autres.

 The Internet Classics Archive | Lysis, or Friendship by Plato
And you would be allowed to write or read the letters in any order which you please, or to take up the lyre and tune the notes, and play with the fingers, or strike with the plectrum, exactly as you please, and neither father nor mother would interfere with you.
And so, Lysis and Menexenus, we have discovered the nature of friendship-there can be no doubt of it: Friendship is the love which by reason of the presence of evil the neither good nor evil has of the good, either in the soul, or in the body, or anywhere.
Lysis and Menexenus gave a faint assent to this; and Hippothales changed into all manner of colours with delight.

 lysis
In biology, lysis refers to the breakdown of a cell caused by damage to its plasma (outer) membrane.
Lysis can be caused by chemical or physical means (for example, strong detergents or high-energy sound waves) or by an infection.
Spontane- ous lysis never exceeded 10% at maximum E:T ratio, and lysis in the absence of antigen was 1% in all E:T ratios and conditions.

 MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia: Euglobulin lysis time
The euglobulin lysis time is a measure of the activity of the fibrinolytic (clot-breakdown) system.
The euglobulin lysis test evaluates fibrinolysis (that is, the dissolution of a blood clot).
In primary fibrinolysis (for example, caused by streptokinase administration, cancer of the prostate, shock), the euglobulin lysis time is shorter than normal.

The volume of 2D Lysis Buffer used to lyse bacteria grown in broth culture will depend on the efficiency of growth - for example H. influenzae recovered from 25-30 ml of broth culture (culture OD of approximately 0.7-0.8) can be lysed in 0.5 ml 2D Lysis Buffer.
Following lysis, the soluble protein suspension can be freeze-dried in the microfuge tube and sent for analysis by post; the sample is resuspended in the same volume of MilliQ water as used for the 2D Lysis Buffer.
The bacteria in the original suspension are collected by centrifugation and resuspended in the appropriate amount of 2D lysis buffer based on the OD reading of the diluted bacterial suspension in the previous step.

 Lysis; or Friendship, by Plato (introduction)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
No answer is given in the Lysis to the question, ‘What is Friendship?’ any more than in the Charmides to the question, ‘What is Temperance?’ There are several resemblances in the two Dialogues: the same youthfulness and sense of beauty pervades both of them; they are alike rich in the description of Greek life.
The first is a conversation between Socrates and Lysis, who, like Charmides, is an Athenian youth of noble descent and of great beauty, goodness, and intelligence: this is carried on in the absence of Menexenus, who is called away to take part in a sacrifice.
The subject is continued in the Phaedrus and Symposium, and treated, with a manifest reference to the Lysis, in the eighth and ninth books of the Nicomachean Ethics of Aristotle.

 Promega’s FastBreak Cell Lysis Reagent - Biocompare Product Review
An increased lysis efficiency was evident as the cell pellet from the lysozyme-containing condition was very small indeed and approximately one-third the size of the pellet from the condition without the enzyme.
Measuring the absorbance of the supernantants at 280 nm (after correcting for the added protein in the lysozyme condition with an equivalent amount by weight of BSA) also showed an increase in the amount of protein released from the cells by a factor of approximately two.
In summary, the FastBreak Cell Lysis Reagent from Promega is very easy to use and appears to be reasonably effective at lysing E. coli.

 SparkNotes: Lysis: Important Terms
The aporia with which the Lysis closes is interesting, however, in that it is caused largely by the interaction of problems of identity (likeness) with problems of desire.
It proceeds by an intensive series of questions, and aims to lead the interviewee to conclude for himself that he does not know what he thought he knew (a state of uncertainty, or aporia, with regard to the topic at hand).
The terms are put into extremely close proximity in the Lysis, however, and it is often unclear in translation which of the two is being used.

The problem is unsolved, and the three friends, Socrates, Lysis, and Menexenus, are still unable to find out what a friend is. Thus, as in the Charmides and Laches, and several of the other Dialogues of Plato (compare especially the Protagoras and Theaetetus), no conclusion is arrived at.
Socrates maintains his character of a 'know nothing;' but the boys have already learned the lesson which he is unable to teach them, and they are free from the conceit of knowledge.
And so, Lysis and Menexenus, we have discovered the nature of friendship-- there can be no doubt of it: Friendship is the love which by reason of the presence of evil the neither good nor evil has of the good, either in the soul, or in the body, or anywhere.

 Platon-Lysis
After the examination of the logical operations the phaenomenological investigation of the interconnected structures of the artistic composition and the philosophical thought reveals the intention of Plato - releasing the interpretation from subjective projections and chronological prejudices.
Furthermore the investigation comes to realize that Lysis and Politeia are strongly connected by structures common to both of them.
The unwritten dogmata of Plato are helpful for the interpretation of Lysis and the trilogy as they clarify those questions that remain unsolved after the immanent interpretation of Lysis and after the complementary quotation of other dialogues.

I certainly cannot refuse, I said, since you ask me; but then, as you know, Menexenus is very pugnacious, and therefore you must come to the rescue if he attempts to upset me. Yes, indeed, he said; he is very pugnacious, and that is the reason why I want you to argue with him.
