A novel set of molecular descriptors suitable for use in quantitative structure-activity relationships and related methods is described. These descriptors are a smooth and interpretable representation of atomic physicochemical property values and intramolecular atom pair distances. Distance atomic physicochemical parameter energy relationships (DAPPER), a novel structure-activity relationship (...

The first application of atomic absorption spectra to chemical analysis was made as long ago as 1860 by Gustav Robert Kirchhoff (1824-87), who demonstrated the presence of various elements in the solar atmosphere. Together with Robert Wilhelm Bunsen (181199), he showed shortly afterwards that atomic spectra, whether in emission or absorption, could be the basis of a powerful method of chemical ...

A study was conducted to determine pigeons from the urban to performed by atomic absorption spectrophotometry with air acetylene (G.B.C. Advanta) Lead concentration was significantly higher in urban sites compared to rural site. Primary feather of pigeon and tail feather of urban sites had significantly higher lead concentration than their rural counterpart. The result of the present study show...

We show that in experimental atomic force microscopy studies of the lifetime distribution of mechanically stressed folded proteins the effects of externally applied fluctuations cannot be distinguished from those of internally present fluctuations. In certain circumstances this leads to artificially nonexponential lifetime distributions, which can be misinterpreted as a signature of protein com...
