The nonspecific phospholipase C from Bacillus cereus is a zinc metalloenzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of phospholipids to yield diacylglycerol and a phosphate monoester. Glu-4 has been proposed as a potential candidate for the general base in the hydrolysis reaction and was shown to interact with the substrate he…

The synthesis of a series of meso-5,15-diphenylporphyrins strapped by 2,2'-disubstituted biphenyl units (6H(2), 7H(2), 8H(2)) is described. The biphenyl straps used are linked via their 3,3'-positions by CH(2)O groups to ortho-positions of the phenyl rings of the 5,15-diphenylporphyrins. The straps of these porphyrins…

Abstract A new method of measuring carbon black dispersion in rubber is presented. This method is based on the measurement of the light reflectivity from the rubber sample using standard equipment used in the evaluation of the tint strength of carbon black (ASTM D3265 procedure). This method can be applied for both un…

Fractographic features related to fatigue growth in a titanium alloy Ti–6Al–3Mo–2Cr were examined in compressor disks that had failed in service. In‐flight block cyclic loading that included hold‐time loading and variable amplitudes of vibrational loading produced fracture characteristics which mainly reflected the tw…

NADP(+)-specific isocitrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.42) was purified to homogeneity from the sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfobacter vibrioformis, and shown to be a monomeric protein with a molecular mass of 80 kDa. The pH and temperature optima were 8.5 and 45 degrees C, respectively. The N-terminal amino acid seque…

This work continues our study of the hot melt adhesive (HMA) model published earlier [1]. This HMA model was developed based on the pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) tack model established previously [2]: P = P 0 BD (1) where P is the adhesive bond strength, P 0 is the interfacial (intrinsic) adhesion term, B is the b…

Some aspects of thermal fracture mechanics of ceramics with temperature-dependent properties are studied. It is first shown that the square-root singular field still prevails in the crack tip region. However, the size of the K-dominant zone may be influenced by the effect of temperature-dependent properties. Then the…
