Carbon and Oxygen Isotope Separation by Plasma Chemical Reactions in Carbon Monoxide Glow Discharge.

Reactions of cytochrome oxidase with oxygen and carbon monoxide.

Although spectrophotometric determinations of steady states together with turnover rates have allowed Chance (1952) to calculate that the rate of reaction of reduced cytochrome oxidase with oxygen must be about 107M-1 sec.-', no direct measurements of this rate appear to have been reported. This is due to the difficulty of obtaining the enzyme in a form which can be studied spectrophotometrical...

Synthesis of Carbon Nanofibers by a Glow-arc Discharge

Biological signaling by carbon monoxide and carbon monoxide-releasing molecules.

Carbon monoxide (CO) is continuously produced in mammalian cells during the degradation of heme. It is a stable gaseous molecule that reacts selectively with transition metals in a specific redox state, and these characteristics restrict the interaction of CO with defined biological targets that transduce its signaling activity. Because of the high affinity of CO for ferrous heme, these targets...

Hyperbaric oxygen in carbon monoxide poisoning.

Preparation of Carbon Molecular Sieves from Pistachio Shell and Walnut Shell for Kinetic Separation of Carbon Monoxide, Hydrogen, and Methane

In this study, two Carbon Molecular Sieves using Pistachio shell (CMS P) and Walnut shell (CMS W) were prepared by a chemical vapor deposition method and used for pressure swing adsorption and separation of CO/H2 and CO/CH4. Adsorption isotherms of gases obtained for both CMS’s. The Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm model was used for comparing pore volum...
