The temporal and spatial characteristics of the plume produced
by a laser microprobe, are dependent upon the composition and pressure
of the atmosphere surrounding it. It has been shown that certain atmospheres
can enhance the analytical signal by increasing the free
atom lifetime.
Improvements were made to the existing laser...
Solubility studies on the heavy metal sulfides in liquid hydrogen
sulfide at room temperature were carried out using the isopiestic
method. The results were compared with earlier work and with a
theoretical result based on Raoult's Law. A relative order for the
solubilities of sulfur and the sulfides of tin,...
The inhibitory effect of 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) upon the
metabolism of glucose and fructose by proliferating cells of
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (OSU strain 2) has been examined. By
the use of radiotracer methods, particularly radiorespirometric
techniques, it has been possible to demonstrate that the rate of
hexose assimilation by yeast cells is...
