the equilibrium moisture content is an important parameter for several post-harvesting operations for pistachio nuts, such as drying processes and storage. in this re-search the adsorption and desorption equilibrium moisture content were determined for two major varieties of iranian pistachios at 11 to 85 percent relative humidities and a con-stant temperature of 50°c. a significant hysteresis ...

the solubility of kno3 in the mixed solvent (water 85%+methanol 15%) were determined by using solvent evaporating method at different temperatures (25, 30, 40, 50, 60 ;c). in addition the equilibrium constant of ion pair formation, kip, for k+no3 – ion-pair on the basis of fuoss contact ion pair model was calculated. upon choosing the extended debye-hückel model for estimating the mean activity...

Haemoglobin Howick shows a high oxygen affinity (p50 = 1 mmHg) and a low co-operativity (n = 1.3). Equilibrium studies show the protein to be essentially totally dimeric in the oxygenated form. A wide range of rapid kinetic experiments indicate that the deoxygenated form of the protein exists in a tetramer<-->dimer equilibrium with an associated equilibrium constant of 3 microM. These kinetic d...

Equilibrium dissociation constants of Bay k 8644, a calcium agonist, and nitrendipine, a calcium antagonist, were determined in canine cardiac sarcolemma. The equilibrium dissociation constant for Bay k 8644 was compared to the concentration that produced a fifty percent increase, and the equilibrium dissociation constant for nitrendipine was compared to the concentration that produced a fifty ...
