Bonds between Thiolignin and Synthetic Rubber

Formation of disulfide bonds in synthetic peptides and proteins.

Adsorption Studies in a Synthetic Rubber Latex-ovalbumin System

1. Adsorption of ovalbumin on the latex surface was in excess of the quantity required to produce coverage of the surface over most of the protein concentrations range which was investigated. 2. "S" shaped isothermals which probably indicated multilayer adsorption were obtained. 3. The quantity of ovalbumin required to produce a constant surface charge density on the latex particle surface was ...

Development of a Soft Linear Motion Actuator using Synthetic Rubber

As ElectroActive Polymers (EAPs) attract keen attentions from various engineering fields, they have been proven more beneficial over the traditional electromagnetic transducers. In the present paper, a new polymeric material that could be adopted for a dielectric elastomer actuator is introduced. The proposed synthetic rubber produces larger deformation at higher energy efficiency compared to p...

in vitro and in vivo synthetic fungicides control of rigidoporus microporus on para rubber in nigeria

rigidoporus microporus is a major threat to hevea brasiliensis in the rubber growing regions of the world. in vitro synthetic fungicidesensitivity assays of tridemorph, benomyl and bayfidan at seven different concentrations, and in vivo effectiveness of the three fungicides on r. microporus inoculated on rubber seedlings were evaluated. the three chemical fungicides used in this study were effe...

Latex clearing protein-an oxygenase cleaving poly(cis-1,4-isoprene) rubber at the cis double bonds.

Gordonia polyisoprenivorans strain VH2, a potent rubber-degrading actinomycete, harbors two latex clearing proteins (Lcps), which are known to be essential for the microbial degradation of rubber. However, biochemical information on the exact role of this protein in the degradation of polyisoprene was lacking. In this study, the gene encoding Lcp1VH2 was heterologously expressed in strains of E...
