ions and is widely used to determine the activity and concentration of hydrogen ions. Metal ion-selective electrodes, such as potassium ions and calcium ions, are also commercially available. Drug ion selective electrodes are prepared and are used to determine the concentrations of drug ions. Other applications of drug ion electrodes include studies of protein binding of drug ions, mechanisms o...

such as growth inhibition and mutagenesis in Escherichia coli, of dihydropyrazines (DHPs). The DHPs revealed single strand-cleavage on the covalently closed circular DNA of plasmid pBR322, especially in the presence of Cu . Since the participation of Cu enhanced the cleaving activity, it is likely that the effects of DHPs on E. coli also would be influenced. Here, we examined the effects of DHP...

Recent protest movements brought attention to the one percent, a segment of the population that is critical to understanding inequality and social mobility but that attracts relatively little research attention. In this article, I survey current research on the one percent in the United States. I distinguish income from wealth and show that both are very concentrated but that the concentration ...
