Lines: 19 Nntp-Posting-Host: maxwell.lx.phy.ulaval.ca Hi, For my research I'm presently looking for this chemicals: Tetrasodium 5, 10,15, 20-tetra(4-sulfonatophenyl)-porphin Does anyone knows about it ? Does anyone knows about any chemical companies in USA or Europe selling this product ? If you have any information please feel free to mail me directly at apham@phy.ulaval.ca Thanks for any help.

I list below some recent papers which deal with telomeres (chromosome ends) and ageing. Some are original papers and others are reviews which will lead you to the other references in this field. The total number of references is not large, yet!!! Some references on Telomeres and Ageing. Allsopp, R.C., Vaziri, H., Patterson, C., Goldstein, S., Younglai, E.V., Futcher, A.B., Greider, C.W., and Harley, C.B. (1992). Telomere length predicts replicative capacity of human fibroblasts.

I hope that these references will get you into the field. ************************************************************************** ************************************************************************** Sydney SHALL, Laboratory of Cell and Molecular Biology, Biology Building, University of Sussex, Brighton, East Sussex BN1 9QG, ENGLAND.
