We present a method to derive implicit solvent models of electrolyte solutions from all-atom descriptions; providing analytical expressions of the thermodynamic and structural properties of the ions consistent with the underlying explicit solvent representation. Effective potentials between ions in solution are calculated to perform perturbation theory calculations, in order to derive the best ...

We study the electrohydrodynamics of the Debye screening layer that arises in an aqueous binary solution near a planar insulating wall when applying a spatially modulated ac voltage. Combining this with first order perturbation theory we establish the governing equations for the full nonequilibrium problem and obtain analytic solutions in the bulk for the pressure and velocity fields of the ele...

Numerous electric double layer models have been developed through the years to capture the complex electrode/electrolyte interface. In the present study, the Wicke-Eigen model of electric double layer is generalized to incorporate the asymmetric size of cations and anions. Analytical expressions for the spatial distribution of ions and water dipoles are derived. Asymmetric and symmetric Wicke-E...

The renal mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) is a steroid hormone receptor essential for maintaining electrolyte homeostasis. Its role in mediating effects of aldosterone was likely vital in enabling the evolution of terrestrial life. Dysregulated aldosterone-MR signaling has been identified as the cause of multiple clinical diseases, suggesting the physiological importance of the MR. While the ph...

The pH of TEMPOL electrolyte greatly affects the reversibility of its redox reaction. Reaction of TEMPOL with OH ion causes the decrease of electrolyte pH. TEMPOL in an acidic electrolyte leads to a decrease in its concentration. a r t i c l e i n f o

OBJECTIVES Longitudinal studies have linked stress at work with a higher incidence of musculoskeletal pain. We aimed to explore the extent to which musculoskeletal pain is a cause as opposed to a consequence of perceived occupational stress. METHODS As part of the international cultural and psychosocial influences on disability study, we collected information from 305 Italian nurses, at basel...

OBJECTIVES The study has aimed to identify the relations between the supplementary person-organization fit (P-O fit) and the perceived stress among managerial staff, with special regard to the mediating role of the effort-reward balance. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study sample consisted of 715 middle-level managers, aged 25-64 years old, employed in large companies. To measure the selected vari...

ABSTRACT The pepper genotype, ECW-12346, was developed with bacterial spot resistance derived from Pep13, PI 271322, and ECW123 (Early Calwonder containing Bs1, Bs2, and Bs3 genes). For genetic analysis of this resistance, ECW12346, ECW123, F(1), F(2), and backcrosses were inoculated with a pepper race 6 (P6) strain. Two recessive genes were identified that determined resistance. The genes are ...
