The cellular localization of the 35 kDa, low molecular mass acid metallophosphatase (LMW AcPase) from the frog (Rana esculenta) liver and its activity towards P-Ser and P-Tyr phosphorylated peptides were studied. This enzyme was localized to the cytoplasm of hepatocytes but did not appear in other cells of liver tissue (endothelium, macrophages, blood cells). This LMW AcPase does not display ac...

We demonstrate passive mode locking based on the novel monoclinic double tungstate crystal Yb:KLu(WO4)2. We report the shortest pulses ever produced with an Yb-doped tungstate laser using a semiconductor saturable absorber. A pulse duration of 81 fs has been achieved for an average power of 70 mW at 1046 nm. We compare the performance of the polarization oriented parallel to the Nm- and Np-crys...

Mode locking based on an epitaxial composite of the monoclinic double tungstate crystal Yb:KLu(WO4)2 is realized. A 100 microm thin Yb:KLu(WO4)2 layer grown on a KLu(WO4)2 substrate is used as an active medium in a laser passively mode locked by a semiconductor saturable absorber. Pulse durations of 114 fs have been achieved for an average power of 31 mW at 1030 nm. Results in the femtosecond a...

This study is focused on the composition and the evolution of tungstate ions solutions as a function of pH and increasing concentrations. The Raman analysis showed that, during the titration of the tungstate solutions, WO4(2-), HWO4- ions and probably W2O7(2-) , HW2O7(2-) and H2W2O7 solvated species could exist in aqueous solutions. For diluted solutions, additions of a strong acid does not cau...

The present study evaluates the effect of a substrate’s silicon content on coatings’ morphology, structure, and properties in an electrolyte containing sodium tungstate Al–xSi alloys. PEO-coated samples demonstrated structure pancake crater with irregular micro-cracks micro-pores. incorporation element W coatings decreased surface roughness porosity due to increasing conductivity and, hence, de...

The synthesis of adipic acid, which is formed by the reaction cyclohexene oxidized hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), hazardous because highly exothermic nature this and H2O2 decomposition. objective comprehensive study was to investigate illustrate effects sulfuric acid (H2SO4) stabilizer (EDTA) on thermal hazard decomposition green also provided a reference reduce risk reactions. Various calorimetry t...

In this paper, we report the crystal structure and magnetic properties of the cyano-bridged gadolinium-tungstate bimetallic assembly, GdIII(DMF)6[WV(CN)8](DMF =N,N-dimethylformamide). X-Ray single crystal analysis shows that this compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system of space group P2(1)/c with cell constants a= 16.40(2)A, b= 11.08(1)A, c= 21.18(2)A, beta= 91.09(8) degrees, and Z= 4. T...

For the first time, a ternary tetragonal scheelite structure tungstate with strontium and cerium cations, (Sr,Ce)WO4, was synthesized. As much as 35% Ce could be inserted into the structure, leaving 1\over 7 of the (Sr,Ce) cation sites vacant. Partial ordering of Sr and Ce, with atomic displacements, were shown by high-resolution electron microscopy. Two-dimensional incommensurate modulations o...
