The stability of the interaction of A1 in myosin and subfragment 1 isolated from fast-twitch mammalian and avian muscles with respect to temperature and ionic strength has been examined. This was done by determining the extent of exchange of the endogenous free A1 light chain into these proteins from the two species. Whereas the extent of exchange at 37 degrees C into mammalian S1, occurring af...

MODIFICATION OF CLAYS WITH IONIC LIQUIDS FOR POLYMER NANOCOMPOSITES by Neung Hyun Kim In attempts to prepare nanofillers with enhanced compatibility with a polymer matrix, cationic and anionic clays susceptible to exchange of their interlamellar ions with a variety of other cations or anions, were selected. In order to treat cationic clay, montmorillonite, which contains sodium ions as interlay...

in present research work, homogeneous anion exchange membranes based on polysulfone (qapsfs) were prepared via chloromethylation, amination and alkalization. in amination step, trimethylamine and n,n,n',n'-tetramethyl-1,6-hexanediamine were used as amination and crosslinking agents, respectively. the chloromethylated polysulfone was characterized by 1hnmr spectroscopy and chloromethylation degr...

With the constant development of new ionic liquids, the understanding of the chemical fate of these compounds also needs to be updated. To this effect, the interaction of a number of novel ionic liquids with soils was determined. Therefore, three novel headgroups (ammonium, phosphonium, or pyrrolidinium) with single or quaternary substitution were tested on a variety of soils with high-to-low o...

D/H exchange reactions at C2, C4 and C5 of the imidazolium cation were observed in catalytic hydrogenation reactions promoted by classical Ir(I) colloid precursors and [Ir(0)](n) nanoparticles dispersed in deuterated imidazolium ionic liquids indicating the participation of carbene species in this media. However, no D/H exchange reaction was observed in cyclohexene hydrogenation promoted by iri...

A microfluidic ion exchange membrane hybrid chip is fabricated using polymer-based, lithography-free methods to achieve ionic diode, transistor and amplifier functionalities with the same four-terminal design. The high ionic flux (>100 μA) feature of the chip can enable a scalable integrated ionic circuit platform for micro-total-analytical systems.

The usefulness of a cation exchange system followed by conductometric detection for alkylimidazolium cations separation and analysis was found for the first time. Furthermore, the possibility of simultaneously separating cations and anions typically used in ionic liquids in one chromatographic run was tested. A tandem of columns containing silica-based strong anion exchange and strong cation ex...
