We measure all nonzero elements of the three-dimensional diffusion tensor D for clusters of colloidal spheres to a precision of 1% or better using digital holographic microscopy. We study both dimers and triangular trimers of spheres, for which no analytical calculations of the diffusion tensor exist. We observe aniso…

BACKGROUND: Complete hydrolysis of cellulose to glucose requires the synergistic action of three general types of glycoside hydrolases; endoglucanases, exoglucanases, and cellobiases. Cellulases that are found in Nature vary considerably in their modular diversity and architecture. They include: non-complexed enzymes…

Muon spin relaxation results on the pyrochlore iridate Nd${}_{2}$Ir${}_{2}$O${}_{7}$ are reported. Spontaneous coherent muon spin precession below the metal-insulator transition (MIT) temperature of about 33 K is observed, indicating the appearance of a long-range magnetic ordering of Ir${}^{4+}$ moments. With further…

Sum frequency generation (SFG) vibration spectroscopy can selectively detect crystalline cellulose without spectral interference from cell wall matrix components. Here, we show that the cellulose SFG spectrum is sensitive to cellulose microfibril alignment and packing within the cell wall. SFG intensity at 2,944 cm(-1…

Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenases (BVMOs) have been shown to play key roles for the biosynthesis of important natural products. MtmOIV, a homodimeric FAD- and NADPH-dependent BVMO, catalyzes the key frame-modifying steps of the mithramycin biosynthetic pathway, including an oxidative C-C bond cleavage, by converting its…

For the fast droplet transportation on an open surface, a new magnetic elastomer with a superhydrophobic surface has been developed. Because the surface is superhydrophobic, the water droplet can easily roll off on the surface. The movement of the droplet was controlled by a deliberate local deformation of the surface…

The choice of the heat, mass and chemical mechanisms included in a pyrolysis model is often subjective, and detailed justifications of the inclusion or exclusion of the different mechanisms are infrequent. The implicit assumption that models with a higher number of mechanisms reproduce more accurately the reality has…
