d(-) Lactate oxidation in Azobacter vinelandii strain O is readily carried out by the membrane bound enzyme that concentrates in the electron transport fraction (R(3)). This oxidation in the R(3) fraction is not dependent on externally added nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, flavine adenine dinucleotide, or flavine mononucleotide. Phenazine methosulfate, O(2), and menadione all served as good ...

The goal of Task Group 25 (TG-25) of the Radiation Therapy Committee of the American Association of.Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) was to provide a methodology and set of procedures for a medical physicist performing clinical electron beam dosimetry in the nominal energy range of 5-25 MeV. Specifically, the task group recommended procedures for acquiring basic information required for acceptance...

Two oppositely charged particles created within a microscopic space-time region can be separated, accelerated over a much larger distance, and brought to a recollision by a laser field. Consequently, new reactions become feasible, where the energy absorbed by the particles is efficiently released. By investigating the laser-dressed polarization operator, we identify a new contribution describin...

 Thin-walled energy absorbers are used to reduce accident induced damages. In this study, thin-walled stainless steel structures in quasi-hemisphere geometry were subjected under quasi-static loading with Santam 150KN apparatus. Experimental results were compared with results of numerical simulations by LS-DYNA and it was shown that there is a good agreement between experimental and numerical r...

background: therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals are designed to deliver high doses of radiation to selected target organs with an aim of minimizing unwanted radiation to surrounding healthy tissue. due to the potential of targeted radiotherapy to treat a wide range of malignant conditions, [153sm]-samarium maltolate was developed for possible therapeutic applications. materials and methods: the or...

Electrophoretically monodisperse antibody components in rabbit antisera to the carbohydrates of the Groups A and C streptococci have been examined for their individual antigenic specificity. In these antibody components which were isolated by preparative electrophoresis, individual antigenic specificity was confined to the specific antibody and was absent in the nonantibody gamma-globulin. Radi...

A procedure was developed to separate and partially purify two NAD(P)H dehydrogenases from the inner membrane of cauliflower (Brassica oleracea L.) mitochondria. The procedure used Triton X-100 extraction followed by (NH(4))(2)SO(4) precipitation and gel filtration (Sepharose G-200 column) chromatography. The first dehydrogenase fraction (which eluted in the column void volume) was specific for...
