Molecular Thermodynamics of Asphaltene Precipitation in Reservoir Fluids
A pre®iously described molecular-thermodynamic framework, based on colloid theory, is used to correlate experimental asphaltene-precipitation data at high-temperature and pressure conditions. In this framework, asphaltenes and resins are represented by pseudopure components, and all other components in a crude oil are presented by a continuous medium that affects ®an der Waals attractions among...
متن کاملAlgebraic Approach to Molecular Thermodynamics
An algebraic model based on Lie-algebraic and discrete symmetry techniques is applied to the analysis of thermodynamic vibrational properties of molecules. The local anharmonic effects are described by a Morse-like potential and the corresponding anharmonic bosons are associated with the SU(2) algebra. A vibrational high-temperature partition function and the related thermodynamic functions are...
متن کاملMolecular thermodynamics for charged biomacromolecules
Significant progress has been made over the past 25–30 years toward understanding the molecular basis of stability and biological functions of proteins and nucleic acids. Electrostatic calculations hold a prominent place among most advanced and popular computational methods to describe the influence of solution conditions on and the precise role played by individual amino acids or atoms in stab...
متن کاملHybridization kinetics and thermodynamics of molecular beacons.
Molecular beacons are increasingly being used in many applications involving nucleic acid detection and quantification. The stem-loop structure of molecular beacons provides a competing reaction for probe-target hybridization that serves to increase probe specificity, which is particularly useful when single-base discrimination is desired. To fully realize the potential of molecular beacons, it...
متن کاملExperimental thermodynamics of single molecular motor
Molecular motor is a nano-sized chemical engine that converts chemical free energy to mechanical motions. Hence, the energetics is as important as kinetics in order to understand its operation principle. We review experiments to evaluate the thermodynamic properties of a rotational F1-ATPase motor (F1-motor) at a single-molecule level. We show that the F1-motor achieves 100% thermo dynamic effi...
