Calixarene-mediated assembly of a small antifungal protein
(International Union of Crystallography, 2019-02-05)
Synthetic macrocycles such as calixarenes and cucurbiturils are increasingly applied as mediators of protein assembly and crystallization. The macrocycle can facilitate assembly by providing a surface on which two or more ...
Tuning protein frameworks via auxiliary supramolecular interactions
(American Chemical Society, 2019-09-06)
Protein crystals with their precise, periodic array of functional building blocks have potential applications in biomaterials, sensing, and catalysis. This paper describes how a highly porous crystalline framework of a ...
Initial stresses in elastic solids: Constitutive laws and acoustoelasticity
(2011)
On the basis of the nonlinear theory of elasticity, the general constitutive equation for an isotropic hyperelastic solid in the presence of initial stress is derived. This derivation involves invariants that couple the ...
An ab initio/transition state theory study of the reactions of Ċ5H9 species of relevance to 1,3-Pentadiene, Part II: Pressure dependent rate constants and implications for combustion modeling
(American Chemical Society, 2020-05-12)
The temperature- and pressure-dependence of rate constants for several radicals and unsaturated hydrocarbons reactions (1,3-C5H8/1,4-C5H8/cyC(5)H(8) + (H)over dot, C2H4 + (C)over dot(3)H5-a, C3H6 + (C)over dot(2)H(3)) are ...
Leaching of decabromodiphenyl ether and hexabromocyclododecane from fabrics under simulated landfill conditions
(KeAi Communications Co. Ltd, 2019-12-30)
A series of laboratory experiments were conducted to examine the leaching of decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-209) and hexabromocyclododecane (HBCDD) from a mix of three fabrics. Consistent with previous reports that such ...
Time-resolved fluorescence microspectroscopy for characterizing crude oils in bulk and hydrocarbon bearing fluid inclusions.
(Ingenta, 2004)
Time-resolved fluorescence data was collected from a series of 23 bulk crude petroleum oils and six microscopic hydrocarbon-bearing fluid inclusions (HCFI). The data was collected using a diode laser fluorescence lifetime ...
Occupational exposures in an equestrian centre to respirable dust and respirable crystalline silica
(MDPI, 2019-09-03)
Abstract: Sand-based products are regularly used as footing material on indoor equestrian arenas, creating a potential occupational exposure risk for respirable crystalline silica (RCS) for equestrian workers training and ...
Supramolecular stacking in a high Z′ calix[8]arene–porphyrin assembly
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019-11-15)
A co-crystal structure of sulfonato-calix[8]arene (sclx8) and trimethylanilinium-porphyrin (tmap) at 1.0 Å resolution is reported. The oppositely charged macrocycles formed an alternating stacked assembly. Crystal packing ...
Influence of protein (human galectin-3) design on aspects of lectin activity
(Springer, 2020-04-25)
The concept of biomedical significance of the functional pairing between tissue lectins and their glycoconjugate counterreceptors has reached the mainstream of research on the flow of biological information. A major challenge ...
Eight rules for improving the quality of papers on the antimicrobial susceptibility of bacteria isolated from aquatic animals
(Inter-Research Science Publisher, 2020-04-30)
The methods for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of bacteria, although relatively simple, are not robust. As a consequence, if the data generated in such tests are to be commensu- rate, all susceptibility tests must ...
