The preparation and spectroscopic characterization of a CO-inhibited [FeFe] hydrogenase with a selectively (57)Fe-labeled binuclear subsite is described. The precursor [(57)Fe2(adt)(CN)2(CO)4](2-) was synthesized from the (57)Fe metal, S8, CO, (NEt4)CN, NH4Cl, and CH2O. (Et4N)2[(57)Fe2(adt)(CN)2(CO)4] was then used for the maturation of the [FeFe] hydrogenase HydA1 from Chlamydomonas reinhardti...

abstractinteraction of ni complex(salen= n, n´-ethylene bis(salicylideneimine)) with hen egg-white lysozyme (hewl) was studied by absorption spectroscopy, competitive binding study and thermal denaturation study. the protein binding affinity of ni complex was found to be (3.0×103m−1). the binding plot obtained from the absorption titration data gives a binding constant of 2.4 (± 0.3)×103 m-1. i...

the reaction between ni(ii), co(ii), cr(iii) bitrates, ni(ii) chloride and ambidentate a-keto ylide benzoylmethylenetriphenylphosphine (bppy) resulted in isolation of [ni(bppy)2](no3)2.2h2o, [ni(bppy)2]cl2, [co(bppy)2](no3)2 and [cr(bppy)3](no3)3; 2h2o. the compounds were characterized by elemental analyses and infrared 1hnmr spectroscopy, molar conductivity in solution and molecular weight mea...

Long-lived goal reasoning systems that reason over their history confront the bounding problem–the impracticality of reasoning over a large, ever-growing experience-base. This is a problem with some explanation systems that use the history of their observations to inform beliefs about the current state of the world. We propose to apply narrative intelligence (NI), which includes the ability to ...

This paper describes a study of excited-state properties of naphthalimide (NI) and four 4-substituted derivatives: 4-chloronaphthalimide (Cl-NI), 4-methylthionaphthalimide (MeS-NI), 4-nitronaphthalimide (O(2)N-NI), and 4-(N,N-dimethylaminonaphthalimide (Me(2)N-NI). Steady-state absorption and fluorescence spectra were collected in solvents of varying polarity to determine the excited-state char...

Five Ni-Cr alloys were studied in order to identify the compounds formed on the alloy surface during oxidation under conditions similar to those encountered during dental laboratory procedures prior to application ofporcelain. After the alloys were oxidized, the films covering the surfaces were removed with the aid of a Br-methanol solution. X-ray diffraction was used to analyze the compounds f...

Hydrogenase [hydrogenase: (acceptor) oxidoreductase, EC 1.12. . -1 is present in many bacteria. It is one of the enzymes having potential use in the biophotolysis of water (Weaver et al.. 1980). When we began our research on hydrogenase in 1977, two types of enzymes were known: (i) enzymes containing 12 Fe atoms and an equivalent amount of acid-labile S atoms and (ii) enzymes containing only fo...

OBJECTIVE The aims of the study are to assess the marginal accuracy of base metal and titanium alloy casting and to evaluate the effect of repeated ceramic firing on the marginal accuracy of base metal and titanium alloy castings. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty metal copings were fabricated with each casting material. Specimens were divided into 4 groups of 10 each representing base metal alloy...

In this study, a nickel (II) complex with 1,10-phenanthroline based ligand, [Ni(FIP)2](OAC)2 (1) with FIP = 2-(Furan-2-yl)-1H-Imidazole[4,5-f][1,10] phenanthroline as ligand was synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic methods and elemental analysis. The interaction of [Ni(FIP)2](OAC)2 (1) with calf-thymus DNA (ct-DNA) was studied by UV-vis absorption, fluorescence spectroscopies and visc...
