Hemes and Hemoproteins
medical history, examines in great detail the history and symbolism of the Asklepian staff. Statements are carefully documented. Much of Dr. Schouten's evidence comes from sculptures, paintings, drawings and the illustrated frontispieces of early medical works, and many of these are handsomely reproduced in his book. The thirteen chapters cover not only Asklepios and his symbols but his positio...
متن کاملModeling low-pH hemoproteins.
A tetracoordinate ferrous heme (iron-porphyrin) has been proposed as an intermediate at low pH (less than 3.0) for respiratory hemoproteins, peroxidases, and model heme complexes. This intermediate is believed to arise via protonation of the N(epsilon) atom of the proximal histidine and consequent cleavage of the Fe-N(epsilon) bond. To establish a spectral signature for the proposed low-pH tetr...
متن کاملEnergy, Quanta, and Vision
1. Direct measurements of the minimum energy required for threshold vision under optimal physiological conditions yield values between 2.1 and 5.7 x 10(-10) ergs at the cornea, which correspond to between 54 and 148 quanta of blue-green light. 2. These values are at the cornea. To yield physiologically significant data they must be corrected for corneal reflection, which is 4 per cent; for ocul...
متن کاملOn Gravitation and Quanta∗
We show that a gravitating mass M in thermal equilibrium behaves statistically like a system of some number N of harmonic oscillators whose zero-point energy ǫ 2 depends on N universally in such a way that Nǫ2 ∼ hc G , where G is the Newton constant, c is the velocity of light in vacuum, and h is the Planck constant. The large number N is also the number of weakly interacting gravitational atom...
متن کاملFacts, Values and Quanta
Quantum mechanics is a fundamentally probabilistic theory (at least so far as the empirical predictions are concerned). It follows that, if one wants to properly understand quantum mechanics, it is essential to clearly understand the meaning of probability statements. The interpretation of probability has excited nearly as much philosophical controversy as the interpretation of quantum mechanic...
