Studies of the use of NADH as the monitored fluorophore for enzymatic fluorescence kinetic methods are discussed. Interference studies
for the detection of NADH and the adaptation and optimization of fluorescence kinetic measurements to four serum assays are also described.
A microcomputer-controlled flow injection analysis (FIA) system was
designed and...
Vanadium pentoxide single crystals were grown from the melt.
These crystals were made the cathode in an electrolytic cell and the
polarization and recovery of the electrode were studied under a
variety of experimental conditions.
A study of the electrode potential versus that of the standard
hydrogen electrode as a...
New alloys containing refractory metals have been developed
by the aero-space industry to meet the demand for thermally resistant
materials. The chemical analysis of these alloys has been
handled successfully by the use of ion exchange. Hydrofluoric acid,
either alone or combined with hydrochloric acid, has here-to-fore
been used to...
The concept of reducing laboratory operations into microfluidic devices has been an attractive area of research for several decades. Due to several advantages of porous-media microfluidic devices including low mass, portability, power-free fluid transport, and the ability to store dried reagents in the porous structures, these devices show great promise...
A facile route to bicyclo(2.1.1)hexanes was developed involving
the intramolecular photocyclization of 1, 5-hexadien-3-one to
bicyclo(2.1.1)hexan-2-one. A study of the chemistry of bicyclo-(2.1.1)hexan-2-one was undertaken. Deuterium exchange and borohydride
reduction demonstrated the strain present in the ketone.
Further evidence was obtained from the failure to introduce substituents
alpha to the...
In spite of their importance in many systems, liquid surfaces have been
explored at the microscopic level to a much lesser extent than solids. Most surface
analysis must take place in vacuum, a major drawback for liquids. The technique of
time-of-flight scattering and recoil spectrometry (TOF-SARS) has been applied to...
