Surface tension kinetics exhibited by selected stability mutants of T4 lysozyme at the air-water interface were monitored with DuNoüy tensiometry. Mutant lysozymes were produced by substitution of isoleucine at position 3 with cysteine, leucine, tryptophan and glycine. Each substitution resulted in an altered structural stability quantified by a change in...
The adsorption kinetics exhibited by selected charge mutants of T4 lysozyme at
silanized silica surfaces were monitored with in situ ellipsometry. Mutant lysozymes were
produced by substitution of lysine (Lys) with glutamic acid (Glu). Each substitution
resulted in a decrease in the net charge of the protein by 2 units....
A multiple stage crosscurrent packed column suitable for gas-liquid
mass transfer was constructed and operated. The absorption
column consisted of a rectangular box constructed of plexiglass and
metal. Deflection baffles were positioned at regular intervals on
opposite sides of a central packed section to divert the gas phase
into the...
At present the adsorption kinetic of ions by soil particles is considered to be a surface reaction. When the transport of solutes in soils is described using the one-dimensional flow equation, it becomes a serious problem that lateral diffusion of ions from the bulk solution towards the soil surfaces is...
