The magnetic properties of mixed-valent compounds of general formula Ru2Cl(mu-O2CR)4 [R = CH2-CH3 (1), C(Me)=CHEt) (2)] have been studied in the 2-300 K temperature range. This magnetic study also includes a revision of the magnetic properties of the complex Ru2Cl(mu-O2CCMePh2)4 (3). Compounds 1-3 show a linear struct…
The X-ray crystal structure of the substrate free form of Staphylococcus aureus UDP-N-acetylenolpyruvylglucosamine reductase (MurB) has been solved to 2.3 A resolution with an R-factor of 20.3% and a free R-factor of 22.3%. While the overall fold of the S. aureus enzyme is similar to that of the homologous Escherichia…
The functionalization of mesostructured and/or mesoporous MCM-41 related silicas is easily achieved by treatment under NH3 atmosphere at relatively low temperatures without structural collapse. Nitridation, which occurs through a single-step solid-state reaction, yields for the first time ordered mesoporous silicon ox…
Abstract Ternary fibrillar reinforced blends are obtained by melt‐blending of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), polyamide 6 (PA‐6) and polyamide 66 (PA‐66) (20/60/20 by weight) in the presence of a catalyst, followed by cold drawing of the extruded bristles to a draw ratio of about 3.4 and additional annealing of th…
A study of carbon concentrates separated by a number of different commercial and laboratory methods from various coal-combustion fly ashes was undertaken to determine what common and unique chemical and physical properties can be expected in such concentrates. The properties were determined using a variety of physical…
A numerical hopping model is developed to investigate the temperature dependence of electrical conductivity in a distribution of localized states. An exponential energy dependence of the density-of-states (DOS) distribution (N 0/E 0)exp(E/E 0) is assumed, together with a high DOS value (1 × 1018-1 × 1021cm−3 eV−1) at…
Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-grafted polyaniline (PANi) copolymers were prepared by incorporating a chlorine end-capped methoxy PEG (mPEGCl) of molecular weight of about 2000 onto the leucoemeraldine form of PANi via N-alkylation. The microstructures and compositions of the mPEG-grafted PANi (mPEG- g -PANi) copolymers…
The series of alloys (GdxTb5−x)Si4 (x=0,2.5,3,3.5,4,4.5,5) and (GdxPr5−x)Si4 (x=4,4.25,4.5) have been prepared. Their room temperature crystal structure has been established, and dc magnetization and ac magnetic susceptibility have been measured in the temperature range from 4.2 to 550 K and in dc magnetic fields up t…
Iron-dependent regulators are primary transcriptional regulators of virulence factors and iron scavenging systems that are important for infection by several bacterial pathogens. Here we present the 2.0-A crystal structure of the wild type iron-dependent regulator from Mycobacterium tuberculosis in its fully active ho…
Macroporous materials with void sizes above 200 nm have interesting optical properties in the visible part of the spectrum. Here, a strategy is presented for producing large-area thin films of macroporous titania containing interconnected and close-packed pores (see Figure). Since the pores are highly ordered they pos…
Throughout its history, the study of ferroelectricity has been closely linked with device applications. The discovery of the first ferroelectric was made during studies of Rochelle salt which had excited a great deal of interest since it showed the largest piezoelectric effect known at the time. During the ups and dow…
The grain phase has a significant influence on the extent and mechanism of attack of low‐cement castables with similar bond systems in a crucible corrosion test. The general corrosion mechanism, as determined by post mortem scanning electron microscopic examination of corroded samples and thermodynamic calculations fo…
The optical properties of lead sulfide semiconducting nanoparticulate thin films with pancake-like structures are controlled by the lowest dimension of the particles, which is a consequence of 1D quantum confinement. Optical absorption and photoluminescence spectra of the nanoparticles (see Figure) reveal that their b…
The crystal structure of glucose dehydrogenase (GlcDH) from Bacillus megaterium IWG3 has been determined to an R-factor of 17.9% at 1.7 A resolution. The enzyme consists of four identical subunits, which are similar to those of other short-chain reductases/dehydrogenases (SDRs) in their overall folding and subunit arc…

Several DNA regions containing genes involved in poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) biosynthesis and degradation and also in fatty acid degradation were identified from genomic sequence data and have been characterized in the serine cycle facultative methylotroph Methylobacterium extorquens AM1. Genes involved in PHB bio…
Abstract This work is concerned with the preparation and characterization of composite materials prepared by compression molding of a mixture of aluminum flakes and nylon 6 powder. The electrical conductivity, density, hardness and morphology of composites were investigated. The electrical conductivity of the composit…
Abstract Adsorption of the +4 charged cationic porphyrins onto an artificially synthesized smectite was studied. Porphyrin molecules adsorb on the clay sheet with high density to neutralize all the minus charges of the clay surface without aggregation by a novel method of a size-matching of distances between the charg…
The electromechanical performance characteristics of 0.7Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3–0.3PbTiO3 ceramics and 〈001〉-oriented crystals have been investigated under uniaxial stress (σ). The results demonstrate that 〈001〉-oriented crystals have an electromechanical coupling coefficient of ∼0.9 for σ less than 4×107 N/m2. The results a…
Environmentally stable conjugated polymer–organo-clay nanocomposites have been used to fabricate LEDs. The organo-clay containing devices are shown to exhibit improved external quantum efficiency compared to pure polymer devices (enhanced by a factor of ca. 100). The composite materials also showed an enhanced photolu…
