Low-temperature studies of elastase

Low-temperature positron-lifetime studies of proton-irradiated silicon.

Low-Temperature Chemical Kinetic and Speciation Studies of n-Heptane

Although there have been many studies of n-heptane ignition, few studies have provided detailed insights into the low-temperature chemistry of n-heptane—a primary reference fuel— through direct measurements of intermediate species formed during ignition. Such measurements provide understanding of reaction pathways that form toxic air pollutants, greenhouse gas emissions, and particulates such a...

Studies on elastase and elastin. I. Assay and properties of elastase.

As early as 1890, Ewald (1) showed that extracts of pancreas were able to dissolve the elastic fibers of connective tissue. In 1950, Balo and Banga (2) described the properties of a purified enzyme obtained from defatted pancreatic powder, distinct from trypsin and chymotrypsin, and capable of dissolving elastic fibers either in tissues or in test tubes. Lewis, Williams, and Brink (3) have sinc...

Hydrogen- and helium-implanted silicon: Low-temperature positron-lifetime studies.

Molecular Dynamics for Low Temperature Plasma-Surface Interaction Studies

The mechanisms of physical and chemical interactions of low temperature plasmas with surfaces can be fruitfully explored using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. MD simulations follow the detailed motion of sets of interacting atoms through integration of atomic equations of motion, using inter-atomic potentials that can account for bond breaking and formation that result when energetic speci...
