The interaction between the seat belt and the pediatric thorax is important since this interaction dictates the kinematic trajectory of the head. To better understand this interaction, animal surrogates that are anatomically similar to the human child have been considered for testing with various belt geometries. Primates are anatomically similar to humans in many respects, but they are high on...

The titration behavior of individual histidine residues of myoglobins has been studied by observing the pH dependence of the chemical shifts of the nonprotonated aromatic carbon resonances in natural abundance 13C Fourier transform NMR spectra (at 15.18 MHz and 37”),of horse ferrimyoglobin, horse cyanoferrimyoglobin, and red kangaroo cyanoferrimyoglobin. In the case of the cyanoferrimyoglobins,...
