Kinetic capillary electrophoresis (KCE) is defined as capillary electrophoresis of species that interact during electrophoresis. KCE can serve as a conceptual platform for development of homogeneous kinetic affinity methods for affinity measurements (measurements of binding parameters and quantitative measurements) and affinity purification (purification of known molecules and search of unknown...

Static calculation and preliminary kinetic Monte Carlo simulation studies are undertaken for the nucleation and growth on a model system which follows a Frank-van der Merwe mechanism. In the present case, we consider the deposition of Ag on Au(100) and Au(111) surfaces. The interactions were calculated using the embedded atom model. The process of formation and growth of 2D Ag structures on Au(...

A new catalytic kinetic spectrophotometric procedure for determination of trace quantities of zirconium was proposed. Janus Green was oxidized by potassium bromate and zirconium catalyst which then converted to a colorless product in acidic media. Reaction rate was monitored spectrophotometrically at 606 nm. It relies on the linear relationship between the absorbance difference (ΔAt) and Zr(IV)...

To function as gene regulatory elements in response to environmental signals, riboswitches must adopt specific secondary structures on appropriate time scales. We employ kinetic Monte Carlo simulation to model the time-dependent folding during transcription of TPP riboswitch expression platforms. According to our simulations, riboswitch transcriptional terminators, which must adopt a specific h...

High-dimensionality is one of the major challenges in kinetic modeling and simulation of realistic physical systems. The most appropriate numerical scheme needs to balance accuracy and computational complexity, and it also needs to address issues such as multiple scales, lack of regularity, and long-term integration. In this chapter, we review state-of-the-art numerical techniques for highdimen...
