structural steels with very high strength levels are often referred to as ultrahigh-strength steels (uhss). the usage of uhss has been extensively studied in aerospace industries and offshore platforms. in this study, medium carbon low alloy steel (ams6305) was thermomechanicaly treated to obtain an ultra-high strength bainitic steel for aircraft engine compressor disk. a novel themomechanical ...

objective(s):the objective of this study was to investigate the interaction of daunorubicin (dnr) and cardiac myosin (cm) and the changes in mice hearts to exhibit dnr-induced cardiotoxicity . materials and methods:the interaction between dnr and cm was expressed using fluorescence quenching at ph 4.0-9.0 and 15-37 °c. dnr-induced cardiotoxicity was studied using in vivo experiment.  forty grou...

We present a jet quenching model within unified multi-stage framework and demonstrate for the first time simultaneous description of leading hadrons, inclusive jets, elliptic flow observables which spans multiple centralities collision energies. This highlights one major successes JETSCAPE in providing tool setting up an effective parton evolution that includes high-virtuality radiation dominat...

Experiments were done to test the thesis that acrylamide and similar small molecules can penetrate into proteins on a nanosecond time scale. The approach taken was to measure the pattern of fluorescence quenching exhibited by quenching molecules differing in molecular character (size, polarity, charge) when these are directed against protein tryptophans that cover the whole range of tryptophan ...

1,11-Didechloro-6-methyl-4'-O-demethyl rebeccamycin (JDC-108), a rebeccamycin analog possessing potent anti-tumor activities, was prepared via a concise one-pot strategy in good yield. The interaction between JDC-108 and human serum albumin (HSA) was studied by spectroscopic methods including fluorescence spectroscopy, UV-vis absorption spectrum, and molecular modeling. The quenching mechanism ...

The characteristics of the interaction between reserpine and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were studied by fluorescence, UV-vis absorption and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Spectroscopic analysis revealed that fluorescence quenching of BSA by reserpine was through a static quenching procedure. The binding constant K(A) of reserpine with BSA at 293, 301 and 309 K was 1.63, 1.78 a...

The effect of excess of cadmium (Cd) on chlorophyll fluorescence of barley seedlings was studied. The leaves were dark-adapted and then illuminated at 10 different light intensities within the range of 70–1600 μmol.m–2.s–1 photosynthetically active radiation (PAR). It was found that Cd decreases the chlorophyll fluorescence parameters in dark-adapted leaves: ground (Fo), maximal (Fm) and variab...

Jet quenching and partonic energy loss High-pT hadron production is expected to provide a sensitive probe for dense QCD matter created in heavy ion collisions. This probe, usually called jet quenching, exploits the theoretical expectation of an enhanced energy loss of a parton propagating through hot matter. The effect is predicted to be proportional to the density of the medium. In spite of mu...

Samples of quartz annealed at high temperatures are known to exhibit thermoluminescence (TL) properties which depend on the rate of cooling of the samples to room temperature. Powder samples of Arkansas quartz were annealed in air at temperatures between 500 and 900 °C and were cooled to room temperature at different cooling rates. The TL of both slowly and fast cooled samples was measured at v...
