Metal-oxo clusters can be described as soluble pieces of metal-oxide frameworks. Currently, metal-oxo clusters are being considered as solution-based precursors for extreme ultraviolet (EUV, 13.5 nm) photoresist materials, which are a crucial component in the fabrication of microelectronic devices. Two different photoresist precursor systems have been investigated – alkyltin clusters...
The production of C¹⁴O₂ metabolized from glucose labeled in
specific carbon atoms by homogenates of chick embryonic and adult
heart was compared by the radiorespirometric technique. Homogenates
of early (two to five days of incubation) embryo hearts were
found to utilize the phosphogluconate pathway of glucose catabolism
to a greater...
In this thesis, we investigated the surface composition and orientation of both pure room-temperature ionic liquids (Ils) and binary mixtures of the ILs of the type consisting of the 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium ([C[subscropt n]mim]⁺, n=4, 8, and 12) cation coupled with either [PF₆]⁻, [BF₄]⁻, [Cl]⁻, or [Br]⁻. The surfaces of the ILs...
The rate of the C¹⁴0₂ release from glucose, specifically labeled
with C¹⁴ at 1, 2, 3+4, and positions, was used to study the relative
participation of pathways of glucose catabolism in red beet slices.
Evidence was obtained which indicated that in mature red beets glucose
was catabolized mainly via glycolysis-tricarboxylic...
The
purpose
of
this
study
was
to
characterize
the
neutral
lipids
of
the
fat
body
of
the
larva
of
the
fleshfly
Sarcophaga
bullata
and
to
examine
the
means
by
which
these
lipids
are
synthesized.
The
weight
of
the
larva,
the
fat
body
as
well
as
its
lipid
content
were
examined...
Crystals of an incongruent-melting compound, Ba₃MgSi₂O₈, were grown by the flux method and its structure was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. Ba₃MgSi₂O₈ crystallizes in trigonal space group P-3[bar]m1 with a = 5.6123(3) Å, c = 7.2667(9) Å and Z = 1. Eu²⁺ ions prefer one crystallographic Ba site...
