Data is presented for the vapor liquid equilibrium viscosity reduction of lubricants with two refrigerant blends at two temperatures. The lubricants tested were a 32 ISO VG mixed acid polyolester and a 32 ISO VG branched acid polyolester. The refrigerant blends used were HFC-125/143a/134a (44/52/4% w/w), and HFC-125/143a (50/50% w/w). INTRODUCTION This experiment detennined the vapor liquid equ...

The pathogenicity of two recent German field ISolates of Porcine parvovirus (PPV-27a and PPV 143a) and two vaccine viruses [PPV-NADL-2 and PPV-IDT (MSV)], which are used for the production of inactivated vaccines, was mvestigated by maculation of pregnant sows at day 40 of gestation. Post-infect1on sera of these sows as well as antisera prepared in rabbits by 1mmun1zation with the four above-me...

O6-methylguanine, a methylated damage lesion in DNA, correlates with spontaneous G:C --> A:T transition mutations and leads to activation of oncogene K-ras or dysfunction of the tumor suppressor gene p53. O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) is critical for repairing damage to the O6-position of guanine. Therefore, we tested our hypothesis that genetic variants of MGMT are associated w...

A series of tests has been completed comparing the system performance of four long term replacements HP62 (44% R~125/ 54% R-143a/ 4% R-134a), AZ-50 (50% R-125/ 50% R-143a), Klea 60 (20% R-32/ 40% R-125/ 40% R-134a), and Klea 61 (1 0% R-32/ 70% R-125/ 20% R-134a) as potential alternatives for the CFC-containing low temperature refrigerant R-502. The tests were carried out under controlled condit...

Solubility data of refrigerant/lubricant mixtures have been modeled with a cubic equation of state. The systems studied are binary mixtures of hydrofluorocarbons (R-32, R-125, R-134a and R-143a) and alkylbenzene oils (viscosity grades 15 and 32). These partially miscible mixtures are well correlated with the present model, which can be used for calculating the pressure-temperature-composition r...
