The influence of electrostatic multipole moments up to hexadecapole on the dynamics of photodissociated carbon monoxide (CO) in myoglobin is investigated. The CO electrostatic potential is expressed as an expansion into atomic multipole moments of increasing order up to octopole which are obtained from a distributed multipole analysis. Three models with increasingly accurate molecular multipole...

Poly (amide-6-b-ethylene oxide)/Zinc Oxide (PEBA/ZnO) mixed matrix membranes were fabricated using ethanol/water as solvent by solvent casting method. The concentration of ZnO in membrane was set to 0.1 wt.% and the synthesized membranes were characterized by AFM and FTIR. Effects of ZnO nanoparticle on CO2, CH4 and N2 permeabilities, and CO2/N2<...

Interaction of the two high-spin hemes in the oxygen reduction site of the bd-type quinol oxidase from Escherichia coli has been studied by femtosecond multicolor transient absorption spectroscopy. The previously unidentified Soret band of ferrous heme b(595) was determined to be centered around 440 nm by selective excitation of the fully reduced unliganded or CO-bound cytochrome bd in the alph...

in this paper, labo3 perovskite type catalyst formulations were prepared by sol-gel auto combustion method using citric acid as the fuel. activity of catalysts was tested in catalytic oxidation of toluene as a model of volatile organic compounds. lacoo3 perovskite formulation showed the highest activity among labo3 (fe, mn and co) perovskite catalysts. so, lacoo3 perovskite based catalyst was s...

A long-standing question in the theory of measures noncompactness is that for Kuratowski measure α defined on a metric space M, and every bounded subset B⊂M, there countable B0⊂B such α(B0)=α(B)? In this paper, we give an affirmative answer to above. It done by showing each nonempty set B Banach space, so strongly finitely representable B0, free ultrafilter U affinely isometric ultrapower [co(B...

B-cell infection by hepatitis C virus (HCV) has been a controversial topic. To examine whether HCV has a genetically determined lymphotropism through a co-receptor specific for the infection by lymphotropic HCV, we established an infectious clone and chimeric virus of hepatotropic and lymphotropic HCV strains derived from an HCV-positive B-cell lymphoma. The viral envelope and 5'-UTR sequences ...

Purpose – In b-to-b relationships, value co-creation requires inter-organizational collaboration and combining of resources. The purpose of this paper is to increase knowledge about value co-creation in b-to-b relationships by investigating factors facilitating collaboration and the realization of mutual value in b-to-b relationships. Methodology/approach – The research methodology used in this...
