Organic Liquids and Alkaline Solutions

Magnetic crystals and helical liquids in alkaline-earth fermionic gases

The joint action of a magnetic field and of interactions is crucial for the appearance of exotic quantum phenomena, such as the quantum Hall effect. Owing to their rich nuclear structure, equivalent to an additional synthetic dimension, one-dimensional alkaline-earth(-like) fermionic gases with synthetic gauge potential and atomic contact repulsion may display similar related properties. Here w...

Anesthesia in Acid and Alkaline Solutions

The action of distilled water in producing anesthesia (loss of response to electrical stimulation) in Nitella is hastened by the addition of acid and alkali and retarded by the addition of calcium. The loss of irritability is fully reversible.

Muscle electrolytes in acid and alkaline solutions.

FENN, WALLACE O.,TERENCE A. ROGERSANDELEONORE A. OHR. Muscle etectrdytes in acid and alkaline solutions. Am. J. Physiol. 194(2): 373-378. [email protected] frog muscles were equilibrated in solutions of varying pH and were then analyzed for potassium, sodium and sometimes chloride, phosphate, or bicarbonate. It was found that acid applied outside the muscle causes in most cases an increased loss of...

Swelling of acetylated wood in organic liquids

To investigate the affinity of acetylated wood for organic liquids, Yezo spruce wood specimens were acetylated with acetic anhydride, and their swelling in various liquids were compared to those of untreated specimens. The acetylated wood was rapidly and remarkably swollen in aprotic organic liquids such as benzene and toluene in which the untreated wood was swollen only slightly and/or very sl...
