The transcriptional modulator in the fibroin gene intron is composed of multiple octamer-like AT-rich elements, to which several specific DNA-binding proteins named fibroin-modulator-binding proteins (FMBPs) bind. Three major FMBPs in the silk gland were characterized. Two of them (FMBP-2 and -3) were identified as a…

Antimicrobial activity of irradiated chitosan was studied against Escherichia coli B/r. Irradiation of chitosan at 100 kGy under dry conditions was effective in increasing the activity, and inhibited the growth of E coli completely. The molecular weight of chitosan significantly decreased with the increase in irradiat…

Quantized ZnS particles were prepared and isolated from aqueous solution with a capping agent, thioglycerol. The absorption peak of the particles was located at 259−260 nm, and the diameter was estimated to be 1.5−1.6 nm from X-ray diffractograms. Their excitation energy agrees well with that calculated with the finit…

As metal oxide reduction may be a limiting or otherwise important step in a reaction cycle, a complete description of the kinetics of the reduction can be critical to the successful choice of catalytic material. Unfortunately, such information is often lacking. Such is the case in our attempts to develop a catalytic c…

Abstract Hartstoffe werden im Verschleißschutz von Werkzeugen und Bauteilen wegen ihres hohen abrasiven Verschleißwiderstands eingesetzt, meist als Beschichtung im Schichtdickenbereich von nur einigen μm. Für eine Auswahl des Schichtmaterials sind die physikalischen, mechanischen und technologischen Eigenschaften, die…

The Debye-Waller factors of atoms in Ge, GaN, ZnO, CdS, CdSe, CuBr, CuCl, AgI, CdO, AgBr, KBr and RbCl in order of Phillips ionicity ( f i ) are studied by both EXAFS and the diffraction method. The displacement correlation functions (DCF) are derived from the mean-square relative displacement (MSRD) and the mean-squa…

The Raman spectra of anatase, rutile, and brookite consist of several intense bands, whereas kaolinite has only a weak Raman spectrum. Raman spectra of ten relatively pure kaolin and two halloysite samples that varied significantly in Ti content revealed the presence of anatase but neither rutile nor brookite in all s…

In situ x‐ray diffraction has been shown to be a powerful tool for the study of the crystallographic changes that occur in a material as intercalation proceeds. Here we report the development of an in situ cell based on coin cell hardware and Bellcore plastic electrode technology. The coin cell hardware makes construc…

Abstract The Raman spectra of a tubular halloysite originating from Matauri Bay, New Zealand, have been obtained using a Renishaw 1000 Raman microscope system. The Raman microprobe enables the Raman spectra of crystals as small as 0.8 μm diameter to be obtained over the complete wavelength range and allows spectral va…

Three-dimensional solution structures for three engineered, synthetic CBDs (Y5A, Y31A, and Y32A) of cellobiohydrolase I (CBHI) from Trichoderma reesei were studied with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. According to CD measurements the antiparallel beta-sheet structure of the C…

Generations 1−5 of poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers were peripherally modified with cationically substituted naphthalene diimides. Reduction with sodium dithionite in water or formamide formed anion radicals on the diimide moieties. Evaporation of water under argon produced powders of the reduced dendrimers that we…

A detailed derivation of the extended Jones matrix representation for twisted nematic liquid crystal displays at oblique incidence (which was previously published by the author) is given. It is shown that this representation reduces to the well-known ordinary Jones matrix representation at normal incidence.
