background and objectives: proteases are a group of enzymes that catalyze the degradation of proteins resulting in the pro- duction of their amino acid constituents. they are the most important group of industrial enzymes which account for about 60% of total enzymes in the market and produced mainly by microorganisms. the attempts were made to study the kinetic parameters of protease produced b...

The small intestine acts as interface and regulator between the gut lumen and the rest of the body and controls the degree and rate of transport of amino acids coming from dietary protein via the portal vein to the liver and the systemic circulation. To measure protein absorption, kinetics multicatheter animal (pig) models in combination with amino acid tracer technology are available. Dietary ...

We report femtosecond transient absorption kinetics measured for selected semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes at different temperatures between 77 and 290 K. The nanotubes are embedded in a thin polymethylmethacrylate film, and the dominance of individual species enabled to probe selectively the kinetics associated with two desired tube types, the (6,5) and (7,5) tubes. A strikingly s...
