the aim of this study was to develop a microemulsion system as a medium for laccase-catalyzed reactions. phase behavior studies were conducted by constructing partial pseudo-ternary phase diagrams for systems comprising of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (ctab), various organic solvents as the oil phase (i.e., hexane, cyclohexane, heptane, octane, isooctane, toluene, isopropyl myristate), two co...

And basically, a doxastic feature is a priori, if all rational doxastic states have that feature. The paper will unfold these notions. And it will argue, partially in a deductive way, for a series of a priori principles about the structure of reasons, starting with a basic empir...
