A detailed study of the light-induced gratings in Methyl-Red-doped 4-n-pentyl-4′-cyanobiphenyl (5CB) homeotropically aligned is reported. In particular, the dependence of diffraction efficiency upon the pump and probe polarizations has been investigated both for transient and permanent gratings. Our results confirm th…

Abstract The effect of molecular structure (MW, MWD and LCB) on the critical tensile stress (σ c ) for the onset of gross melt fracture (OGMF), proposed in Part I (1) as a material‐dependent criterion for fracture, was determined for a group of polyethylenes varying in structure. These included linear low and high‐den…

In Escherichia coli, the homodimeric Krebs cycle enzyme isocitrate dehydrogenase (EcIDH) is regulated by reversible phosphorylation of a sequestered active site serine. The phosphorylation cycle is catalyzed by a bifunctional protein, IDH kinase/phosphatase (IDH-K/P). To better understand the nature of the interaction…

The melt rheological properties of short sisal fibre reinforced polypropylene composites have been studied using a capillary rheometer. The dependence of the relative composition of component reinforcements and their aspect ratio and also the extent of chemical modification on the overall rheological behaviour have be…

Excellent mechanical properties make γ-Si2AlON3, one of the first spinel sialons and 4-3-spinels, a promising material for structural and abrasive applications. The hardness of this phase synthesized at 13 GPa/1800°C surpasses that of the low-pressure α- and β-sialons, which are used for metal-cutting and engineering…

Abstract Fourier transform (FT) Raman and surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) were applied to the vibrational characterization of isoquinoline and 4‐methylquinoline. The assignment of the vibrational modes was carried out on the basis of results obtained from density functional theory calculations. The comparis…

Methylaspartate ammonia-lyase (3-methylaspartase, MAL; EC ) catalyzes the reversible anti elimination of ammonia from L-threo-(2S,3S)-3-methylaspartic acid to give mesaconic acid. This reaction lies on the main catabolic pathway for glutamate in Clostridium tetanomorphum. MAL requires monovalent and divalent cation co…

Zirconia was prepared by firing the coprecipitate from ZrOCl 2 and AlCl 3 mixed aqueous solution with ammonia. When fired above 600°C, the products were fine crystalline tetragonal zirconia of crystallite size <10 nm. In previous studies, the tetragonal phase had been assumed to be a (Zr 1− x 4+ Al x 3+ )O 2− x /2…

Abstract In an investigation into making more effective use of underutilized fisheries resources, collagen was prepared from Callistoctopus arakawai arm. The arm was only slightly solubilized in acetic acid but on digestion with 10% pepsin (w/v), pepsin-solubilized collagen (PSC) was successfully produced. The PSC obt…

Tryptophan synthase catalyzes the last two steps in the biosynthesis of the amino acid tryptophan. The enzyme is an alpha beta beta alpha complex in mesophilic microorganisms. The alpha-subunit (TrpA) catalyzes the cleavage of indoleglycerol phosphate to glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and indole, which is channeled to the…

We describe concept, design, and performance of a novel spin polarimeter based on spin-dependent specular reflection of electrons from a Fe(100) surface. The Fe surface is prepared as an ultrathin film on Ag(100). By tuning the energy of the electrons to a critical point in the Fe band structure, a large spin asymmetr…
