Lithium and copper are distributed equally between cells and serum. However, red cells contain more magnesium, zinc, and iron than does serum. To assure analytical accuracy, hemolysis should be avoided. Also, cells and sera must be separated shortly after sample collection. Since aqueous solutions leach magnesium from glass containers, materials and reagents meant for magnesium analysis should ...

A quantum Monte Carlo study of the atomization energies for the G2 set of molecules is presented. Basis size dependence of diffusion Monte Carlo atomization energies is studied with a single determinant Slater-Jastrow trial wavefunction formed from Hartree-Fock orbitals. With the largest basis set, the mean absolute deviation from experimental atomization energies for the G2 set is 3.0 kcal/mol...

The sensitivity of graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS) to arsenobetaine (AB) was 1.3-times higher than to inorganic As. In order to understand the mechanism underlying this observation, the atomization processes for both chemical species were investigated in terms of the enthalpy change (DeltaH) during the atomization process in GFAAS. The enthalpy change of AB was slightly ...

We introduce a machine learning model to predict atomization energies of a diverse set of organic molecules, based on nuclear charges and atomic positions only. The problem of solving the molecular Schrödinger equation is mapped onto a nonlinear statistical regression problem of reduced complexity. Regression models are trained on and compared to atomization energies computed with hybrid densit...

A liquid jet upon atomization breaks up into small droplets that are orders of magnitude smaller than its diameter. Direct numerical simulations of atomization are exceedingly expensive computationally. Thus, the need to perform multiscale simulations. In the present study, we performed multiscale simulations of primary atomization using a Volume-of-Fluid (VOF) algorithm coupled with a two-way ...

Ž . Ž . ABSTRACT: The local spin-density LSD functional and Perdew]Wang 91 PW91 generalized gradient approximations to atomization energies of molecules are investigated. We discuss the coupling-constant dependence of the atomization energy and why exchange errors of the functionals are greater than exchange]correlation errors. This fact helps to justify hybrid schemes which mix some exact exch...

Microencapsulation techniques are widely applied in the field of pharmaceutical production to control drugs release in time and in physiological environments. Ultrasonic-assisted atomization is a new technique to produce microencapsulated systems by a mechanical approach. Interest in this technique is due to the advantages evidenceable (low level of mechanical stress in materials, reduced energ...

A detailed understanding of the driving mechanisms behind primary atomization is crucial to the optimization of sprays for efficient combustion in modern propulsion systems. Many challenges are associated with simulating realistic turbulent atomization, such as the multiplicity of length and time scales of the turbulent flow field and gas-liquid interface, discontinuous fluid properties and pre...
