Effect of soya-bean protein on the ability of gnotobiotic pig intestine to digest and absorb nutrients

Gnotobiotic pigs were fed control and soya-bean protein containing diets in an attempt to identify direct effects of this protein on intestinal structure and function.
Feeding diets containing soya-bean protein for 4 days to 21-day-old gnotobiotic pigs increased crypt depth in the lower half of the small intestine. This increase was accompanied by a corresponding reduction in lactase activity, brought about mainly by a decrease in the apparent rate at which this enzyme appeared in the luminal membrane of developing enterocytes. Sucrase and maltase II and III activities increased slightly in tissue taken from pigs fed soya-bean protein. Alanine transport measured in the presence and absence of Na remained unaffected by change of diet.
The structure and function of control gnotobiotic pig intestine differed from that found in normal unweaned piglets. The possible source of these differences and the probable role played by enteric microflora in amplifying initial effects of soya-bean protein on intestinal function is discussed.

Summary
Why these universities or colleges should be only at Cambridge and Oxford, I know no reason … doubtless it would be more suitable and more advantageous to the good of all the people, to have universities or colleges, one at least, in every great town or city in the nation, as in London, York, Bristol, Exeter, Norwich and the like: and for the state to allow these colleges an honest and competent maintenance, for some godly and learned men to teach the tongues and arts, under a due reformation. And this the state may the better do, by provision out of every county, or otherwise, as shall be judged the best, seeing then there will be no such need of endowment of scholarships; inasmuch as the people having colleges in their own cities, near their own houses, may maintain their children at home, whilst they learn in the schools; which would indeed be the greatest advantage to learning that can be thought of.
William Dell, Master of Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, 1653Much has been written about the spread of education in England before, during and after the industrial revolution. Many of the publications touch on the emergence of the Civic universities and a few deal directly with their origins, birth and early development. Inevitably, much that has been published has implications for their libraries but, apart from occasional comparative studies and references in the history of individual universities, these have rarely been considered in a general library context. University libraries are essentially corollaries of their universities and their modus vivendi and modus operandi are to a very large extent determined by them. In the case of the Civic university libraries, this is specially important, for their distinctive origins and early history set them apart from the libraries of Cambridge, Oxford and the ancient Scottish universities, and also from most of the later foundations.

I must emphasise at the outset that the views expressed here are those of someone who had never visited Nigeria, or indeed the African Continent, until last year. I am all too conscious of the fact that much of what I say will be self-evident to many of you, who must know that Continent from the inside, and possibly naive, or even completely wrong.
If my views have any value this must in fact be due to this, to the newness to me of Africa, to my uncontaminated, if you like virgin, state, to my hitherto clearly circumscribed Library vision. British and Germanic speaking libraries of Europe pretty, well sums up my library experience, a thoroughly parochial background in the context of the Third World. I was, as it turned out, only superficially prepared for what one of my new-found colleagues in Zaria termed “cultural shock”, the impact of Nigerian life on the raw European visitor.
