The first gene encoding a glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) from a halophilic organism has been sequenced. Amino acid sequence alignments of GDH from Haloferax mediterranei show a high degree of homology with the thermoacidophilic GDHs and with other enzymes from the medium chain dehydrogenase/reductase family. Heterologous…

Free-base and zinc(II) porphyrins bearing either one, two, or four hydroquinone entities at the meso positions are shown to bind quinones in solutions via a quinhydrone pairing mechanism. Electrochemical studies reveal that the quinhydrone complexes are stabilized by charge-transfer interactions between the donor (hyd…

Nanotube fibers with diameters ranging between 10 and 100 microns were produced by a simple spinning process. These fibers were studied by x-ray scattering--a technique that allows good visualization of the composition as well as the alignment of the constituents. The fibers were found to be composed of bundles of sin…

Uniform silicon single nanodots were synthesized by laser ablation with a differential mobility analyzer (DMA) technique. The Si nanoparticles generated by laser irradiation of a silicon target were actively classified by a DMA and were impacted on the solid surface by a “nanoparticle beam”. By measuring the current o…

Texture formation via high‐temperature deformation in sintered alumina was investigated. Fine‐grained, normal‐purity‐alumina sintered bodies deformed under stresses up to 80 MPa in a temperature range of 1200°–1300°C. Fine, disklike grains formed in the equiaxial fine‐grained matrix during high‐temperature deformation…

The occurrence of brittle fracture in iridium has attracted significant attention in recent years and is thought to be related to the energetics of the dislocation core, in particular the extremely high unstable stacking energy. Although it is not experimentally possible to measure the unstable stacking energy, first-…
