lysozyme is considered as part of the innate immune system. it has stimulated considerable interest as a natural food preservative. lysozyme has been shown to be effective in preserving a variety of foods such as fresh fruits and vegetables, meats, seafood and wine, for which many japanese patents have been granted. the relatively high thermal stability of lysozyme also makes it attractive for ...

the thermal decomposition of 86 % vinyl chloride 14 % vinyl acetate copolymer wasstudied by the conductometry technique in the presence of nitrogen. the kinetics of stability andthermal degradation of vinyl chloride- co- vinyl acetate (pvc- co- pvac) copolymer withcopper, copper oxide and tricalcium dicitrate (st) were investigated at various temperatures (150-180 oc ) in solution. the rate coe...

Quantitative structure–thermostability relationship was carried out for four series of bis(imino)pyridine iron (cobalt) complexes and α-diimine nickel complexes systems in ethylene oligo/polymerization. Three structural parameters were correlated with thermal stability, including bond order of metal-nitrogen (B), minimum distance (D) between central metal and ortho-carbon atoms on the aryl moie...

In this work, the structure and mechanical properties of innovative Al-Cu-Fe based alloys were studied. We focused on preparation and characterization of rapidly solidified and hot extruded Al-Cu-Fe, Al-Cu-Fe-Ni and Al-Cu-Fe-Cr alloys. The content of transition metals affects mechanical properties and structure. For this reason, microstructure, phase composition, hardness and thermal stability ...

The crystal structure of the wild-type nucleoside diphosphate kinase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis at 2.6 Å resolution revealed that the intersubunit salt bridge Arg80-Asp93 contributes to the thermal stability of the hexamer (Tm = 76°C). On mutating Asp93 to Asn to break the salt bridge, the thermal stability dramatically decreased by 27.6°C. Here, on mutating Arg80 to Asn, the thermal stabi...

This paper presents the results obtained after studying the thermal stability and decomposition kinetics of perindopril erbumine as a pure active pharmaceutical ingredient as well as a solid pharmaceutical formulation containing the same active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). Since no data were found in the literature regarding the spectroscopic description, thermal behavior, or decomposition ...

A physical parameter for predicting the thermal stability of proteins was provided by a new approach using dynamic light scattering (DLS). The relationship between the melting point measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and the polydispersity of the hydrodynamic diameter determined by DLS analysis was examined. Calmodulin (CaM) and concanavalin A (ConA) were used as model proteins...

Relative stability of therapeutic antibody candidates is currently evaluated primarily through their response to thermal degradation, yet this technique is not always predictive of stability in manufacture, shipping, and storage. A rotating disk shear device is proposed that produces defined shear conditions at a known solid-liquid interface to measure stability in this environment. Five varian...

The theory of static aeroelastic stability of supersonic wings including chordwise bending, as developed in reference 1, is further extended to include the influence of stresses arising from thermal gradients. The wing spanwise twist distribution is found to obey an ordinary differential equation of the fourth order whose coefficients depend on the thermal gradients. The influence of finite def...
