Vital Micronutrients In Depth Linus Pauling Institute

Q. Your early research concerned the effects of toxins on mitochondria, the organelles within cells that produce energy. How do mitochondria respond to toxins? A. During my Ph.D. work in Switzerland, I used various toxins that generate oxidative stress, including a lipid hydroperoxide or oxidized lipid called tert-butylhydroperoxide and other toxins like menadione or alloxan, which undergo redo...

Extroverted confusion--Linus Pauling, Melvin Calvin, and porphyrin isomers.

No other modern era chemist has influenced chemistry and molecular biology as much as Professor Linus Pauling (1901–1994) (Fig. 1). In a career spanning seven decades he worked and made important contributions in all areas of chemistry including physical, structural, analytical, inorganic, and organic chemistry, as well as biochemistry. While always being interested in the structure and bonding...

The Dissociation Energy of Carbon Monoxide and the Heat of Sublimation of Graphite by Linus Pauling

Metasequoia has long been a member of the forest of the temperate zone, and has commonly ranged southward into latitudinal ecotones with the forests of the subtropical zone. During the Eocene epoch this conifer extended still farther south in the uplands, where it lived in an altitudinal ecotone bordering the Clarno flora of the John Day Basin. It has survived in the high valleys of central Chi...
