A large number of experiments were done to detect and identify
one or more intermediates involved in coupling ATP synthesis to
electron transport. Using mitochondria from blowflies, addition of
ADP after a period of incubation with Pi³² was found to give rise to a
temporarily rapid esterification (the "ATP jump"),...
Because of its characteristics, the square-loop magnetic core
can be used as the basic device in a logic system. A magnetomotive
force (mmf) which is below the threshold mmf of such a core will
cause a negligible, nonpermanent amount of flux change in the core;
and information signals can be...
The chemically similar elements hafnium and zirconium occur
together in nature. Because of their very dissimilar nuclear
properties it is of commercial importance to separate them for use
in the atomic energy field. One or more of the steps in the separation
and purification processes presently used involve the volatile...
Vitamin K₅, 4-amino-2-methyl-1-naphthol hydrochloride, a
water soluble analog of vitamin K has been shown to possess an antimicrobial
activity toward many bacteria, molds, and yeast. Much
of the work reported in the literature is on its use as a food preservative,
and it was the purpose of this study to...
