We consider a long-wave oscillatory Marangoni convection in a layer of a binary liquid in the presence of the Soret effect. A weakly nonlinear analysis is carried out on a hexagonal lattice. It is shown that the derived set of cubic amplitude equations is degenerate. A three-parameter family of asynchronous hexagons (AH), representing a superposition of three standing waves with the amplitudes ...

We are investigating the redox chemistry of wild-type (WT) and mutant (1-12G) cytochrome P450 BM3. Absorption spectra in solution feature the Fe(III) Soret at 418 nm for WT and a split Soret for 1-12G at 390 and 418 nm. Voltammetry of the proteins within DDAPSS films on the surface of carbon electrodes reveal nearly identical Fe(III/II) potentials (approximately -200 mV vs Ag/AgCl), but signifi...

In this paper an exact analysis to study the combined effects of thermal diffusion (Soret) and heat generation on a mixed convection flow past an infinite vertical porous plate in presence of thermal radiation has been made. The governing system of partial differential equations subject to favorable boundary conditions is being solved analytically. Cogly-Vincentine-Gilles equilibrium approximat...

A theoretical investigation has been made for a radiating and chemically reacting viscous-fluid of conducting gas over vertical porous surface immerse in saturated medium the impact magnetic drag-force, buoyancy forces thermal-diffusion (Soret) order under oscillatory suction heat absorption.

The present paper reports on an analytical and numerical study of combined Soret Dufour effects thermosolutal convection in a horizontal porous cavity saturated with electrically conducting binary fluid under magnetic field. walls the system are subject to vertical uniform fluxes heat mass, whereas assumed be adiabatic impermeable. main governing parameters problem Rayleigh, Hartmann, Soret, Le...

The globins from sperm whale and from Aplysia limacina myoglobins were reconstituted by addition of stoichiometric ferric protohaem and the Soret c.d. was followed as a function of time. For both reconstituted proteins, the Soret c.d. changes with time, reflecting haem reorientation inside its pocket, as previously described [Aojula, Wilson & Drake (1986) Biochem. J. 237, 613-616] for sperm wha...

An Escherichia coli expression system has been developed for pea cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase (APX). The enzyme was expressed as a fusion product with the E. coli maltose-binding protein for rapid, affinity chromatography purification. Recombinant ascorbate peroxidase (rAPX) was purified by tryptic digestion to separate the maltose-binding protein from rAPX followed by three chromatographic s...

The effects of hyperthermia, coupling attributes and property variations on Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) transport within a multi-layered wall while accounting for the fluid structure interaction (FSI) is analyzed in this work. To understand the potential impact of the hyperthermia process, thermo-induced attributes are incorporated, accounting for the plasma flow, mass transfer, as well as th...

In order to study interdimer heme-heme electronic interactions in human hemoglobin, the Soret circular dichroism spectrum of the carboxy adduct is measured as a function of protein concentration, the spectrum at the highest concentration representing primarily that of alpha2beta2 tetramers (93%) and the lowest concentration representing primarily alphabeta dimers (68%). The tetramer-dimer diffe...

The Soret and Dufour effects on the steady, laminar mixed convection heat and mass transfer along a semi-infinite vertical plate embedded in a micropolar fluid saturated non-Darcy porous medium with heat and mass flux conditions are investigated. The non-linear governing equations and their associated boundary conditions are initially cast into dimensionless forms using similarity transformatio...
