The specific glucocorticoid binding capacity in cytosol preparations of rat thymocytes decays with a half-life of 4 h at 0 degrees C or 20 min at 25 degrees C. Phosphatase inhibitors (molybdate, fluoride, glucose 1-phosphate) added alone do not prevent this inactivation. Dithiothreitol (2 mM) has a large stabilizing effect on the binding capacity at 0 degrees C but only a small effect at 25 deg...

In this paper, we have used density functional perturbation theory (DFPT) and Pseudo-potential method to calculate the phonon spectrum, phonon density of states (DOS), specific heat capacity and mechanical properties of (5,5) armchair and (9,0) zigzag Single Wall Carbon Nanotubes (SWCNTs). Our calculations show that Young’s modulusfor (5,5) and (9,0) nanotubesare higher than 1TPa. We have also ...

Heat stress commonly leads to inhibition of photosynthesis in higher plants. The transcriptional induction of heat stress-responsive genes represents the first line of inducible defense against imbalances in cellular homeostasis. Although heat stress transcription factor HsfA2 and its downstream target genes are well studied, the regulatory mechanisms by which HsfA2 is activated in response to ...

In this paper the effect of site conditions, which are Altitude, Temperature and Relative Humidity and also Heat Dissipation Capacity are investigated on the optimized design of natural draft dry cooling towers with specific kind of heat exchangers, known as Forgo T60 type. A genetic algorithm program has been developed for optimized design of these cooling towers. Objective function includes b...

in this investigation the silicate nano structure of mcm-41 has been used for the production of nanofluid.the particles have negligible heat conductivity and therefore by their dispersion in a base fluid likewater, it is possible to study the increase of heat conductivity due to the brownian motion effects. in thiswork a suitable apparatus for the measurement of heat conductivity has been built...
