Gallium oxide hydroxide (GaOOH· x H 2 O) single crystals were synthesized in aqueous solutions by using two different precipitation techniques: homogeneous decomposition of urea and forced hydrolysis in pure water. Precipitation of crystals started at exactly the same pH value (i.e., 2.05 at 85°C) in both cases. The m…
The aim of this review is to highlight recent progress in the synthetic methodologies leading to corroles and core-modified corroles. Emphasis is put on corroles with meso substituents. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2002)
The polycomb group (PcG) proteins are important in the maintenance of stable repression patterns during development. Several PcG members contain a protein protein interaction module called a SAM domain (also known as SPM, PNT and HLH). Here we report the high-resolution structure of the SAM domain of polyhomeotic (Ph)…
The cyclic deformation behaviour of ultrafine-grained (UFG) copper produced by equal-channel angular pressing was investigated. Special attention was paid to the parameters governing cyclic softening and cyclic grain coarsening. UFG copper shows significant cyclic softening for the tests performed at intermediate plas…
Silicon oxycarbide (SiOC) glasses with controlled amounts of Si—C bonds and free carbon have been produced via the pyrolysis of suitable preceramic networks. Their chemical durability in alkaline and hydrofluoric solutions has been studied and related to the network structure and microstructure of the glasses. SiOC gl…
The objective of the paper is to discuss a tool which is proving extremely efficient in partial discharge measurement studies. Though the technique itself is not new, its application to partial discharge studies is. It will be demonstrated in this paper that it has tremendous power and this accounts for its rapid grow…
Microbiology Society journals contain high-quality research papers and topical review articles. We are a not-for-profit publisher and we support and invest in the microbiology community, to the benefit of everyone. This supports our principal goal to develop, expand and strengthen the networks available to our members…
ABSTRACT: The effectiveness of pre‐ and postharvest treatments with chitosan (0.1, 0.5, and 1.0%) to control Botrytis cinerea on table grapes was investigated. In postharvest treatments, small bunches dipped in chitosan solutions and inoculated with the pathogen showed a reduction of incidence, severity, and nesting o…
Enzymes are called upon to differ greatly in the difficulty of the tasks that they perform. The catalytic proficiency of an enzyme can be evaluated by comparing the second-order rate constant (kcat/Km) with the rate of the spontaneous reaction in neutral solution in the absence of a catalyst. The proficiencies of enzy…
This paper deals with digital acquisition, classification and analysis of the stochastic features of random pulse signals generated by partial discharge (PD) phenomena. Focus is made on a new measuring system for the digital acquisition of PD-pulse signals, which operates at a sampling rate high enough to avoid the fr…
We have employed diheteroarylethenes as acceptors for photochromic FRET (pcFRET), a technique introduced for the quantitative determination of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). In pcFRET, the fluorescent emission of the donor is modulated by cyclical transformations of a photochromic acceptor. Light induc…
Abstract In this communication, we describe the finding that sonication of solid single-walled carbon nanotubes (p-SWNT) in an aqueous solution of a pyrene-carrying ammonium ion 1 gave a transparent dispersion/solution of the nanotubes, which was characterized by transmission electron microscopy, UV-vis absorption, fl…
Drug delivery systems can in principle provide enhanced efficacy and/or reduced toxicity for anticancer agents. Long circulating macromolecular carriers such as liposomes can exploit the 'enhanced permeability and retention' effect for preferential extravasation from tumor vessels. Liposomal anthracyclines have achiev…
To meet the demands of the National Ignition Facility for a large number of half-metre scale, high quality crystals of KH2PO4 (KDP) and KD2PO4 (DKDP), the Laser Program at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory has pursued a major effort to develop a method for growing these crystals at high rates. This effort has res…
Using luminescent lanthanides, instead of conventional fluorophores, as donor molecules in resonance energy transfer measurements offers many technical advantages and opens up a wide range of new applications. Advantages include farther measurable distances ( approximately 100 A) with greater accuracy, insensitivity t…

The dispersion of nanotubes in polymer matrices has been investigated as a means of deriving new and advanced engineering materials. These composite materials have been formed into fibers and thin films and their mechanical and electrical properties determined. The nanotube concentration at which conductivity was init…
Peptide T1-892 is a triple-helical peptide designed to include two distinct domains: a C-terminal (Gly-Pro-Hyp)(4) sequence, together with an N-terminal 18-residue sequence from the alpha1(I) chain of type I collagen. Folding experiments of T1-892 using CD spectroscopy were carried out at varying concentrations and te…
Peculiarities of the behavior of kinetic coefficients, like thermal conductivity, electric conductivity, and thermoelectric power, in isotopically disordered materials are reviewed in detail. New experimental and theoretical results on the isotope effects in the thermal conductivity of diamond, Ge, and Si semiconducto…
Taking into account some attractive properties of the thorium phosphate−diphosphate (Th 4 (PO 4 ) 4 P 2 O 7 ), called TPD, we focused our research on its potential use as a ceramic for the long term storage of some radionuclides including trivalent and tetravalent actinides. In this objective, we already investigated…
