Solved the first crystal structure of a protein-calixarene complex (at 1.4 Angstrom resolution). The results provide exact structural information on the amino acid preference of the anionic p-sulfonatocalix[4]arene (sclx4) ...

This work presents an ab-initio and chemical kinetic study of the H-atom abstraction reactions of ethers and ketones + HO2 radicals, aldehydes and acids + H atoms, OH, HO2 and CH3 radicals and esters + OH and HO2 radicals. ...

The objective of this thesis was to investigate the integration of enzymes and redox mediators capable of transferring electrons between enzymes and electrodes. This was done with a view to developing a semi- or fully ...

Industrial scale cell culture is used for the production of many therapeutic agents such as protein and vaccines. Cell culture medium is a vital raw material used in these production processes. Formulation analysis of the ...

A chemical kinetic mechanism for the combustion of acetone has been developed and compared with a range of experimental data from the literature and with species concentration profiles measured in this study in the Princeton ...

The development of synthetic methods which can convert inedible waste biomass into liquid transportation fuels is an exciting breakthrough which may reduce our dependence on fossil fuels for energy production, and contribute ...

A detailed chemical kinetic mechanism has been developed to describe the oxidation of small hydrocarbon and oxygenated hydrocarbon species. In order to understand the oxidation of large hydrocarbon and oxygenated hydrocarbon ...

I: In recent years a large number of synthetic methods have been developed which involve carbon radicals. Although many of these methods are synthetically very useful, they suffer from the significant disadvantage that the ...
