Riboflavin synthase catalyzes the transfer of a four-carbon fragment between two molecules of the substrate, 6,7-dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine, resulting in the formation of riboflavin and 5-amino-6-ribitylamino-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione. Earlier, a pentacyclic adduct formed from two substrate molecules was shown to be…

Very recently, the superhard properties of rhenium and ruthenium boride films were reported, this research being inspired by the discovery of the ReB(2) bulk superhardness. In this paper, we report the first successful deposition and characterization of rhodium and iridium boride films, other possible candidates for s…

PURPOSE: Energy-resolved CT has the potential to improve the contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) through optimal weighting of photons detected in energy bins. In general, optimal weighting gives higher weight to the lower energy photons that contain the most contrast information. However, low-energy photons are generally mo…

We developed a method to immobilize Pd/Au bimetallic nanoparticles (NPs) on highly cross-linked polymer microspheres. In this route, the cross-linker divinylbenzene and ionic liquid (IL) 1-vinyl-3-butyl imidazolium chloride ([VBIM]Cl) were first copolymerized in ethanol to prepare the cross-linked polymer microspheres…

We present a mode-locked diamond Raman laser synchronously pumped by a mode-locked laser running at 532 nm and pulse duration 26 ps. The diamond laser generated up to 2.2 W of average power with output pulses of duration 21 ps at a yellow wavelength of 573 nm. The output pulse duration varied notably with small change…

Abstract Over the last few years the impact of products from natural sources in food, nutraceuticals, cosmetics, flavors/fragrances, and also the pharmaceutical industry has increased due to the consumer demand for nature‐derived products. Meeting this demand requires that existing manufacturing processes have to be o…

A Schottky contact detector comprising a symmetric metal stripe buried in Si, capable of detecting surface plasmons at wavelengths below the bandgap of Si, is described. A model for the detector is proposed, and its performance is assessed at lambda(0)=1550 nm assuming a CoSi(2) stripe in p-type Si. End-fire coupled r…

The main mechanisms of creep damage of single-crystal nickel-base superalloys are the loss of the interface coherency, coarsening of the γ/γ'-microstructure, precipitation of topologically closed packed phases and growth of porosity. This degradation deteriorates the mechanical properties such as yield stress, creep l…

Abstract Glycerol has proved to be an effective promoting medium for many multicomponent reactions of 1,3‐cyclohexanediones and formaldehyde. Styrenes, amines, 2‐naphthol, 4‐hydroxy‐6‐methyl‐2‐pyrone and 4‐hydroxy‐1‐methyl‐2‐quinolone could easily react with 1,3‐cyclohexanediones and paraformaldehyde in glycerol under…
