This paper deals with the development of a chemical kinetic database for use in the simulation of heptane combustion. The database consists of the thermodynamic properties of all reactants, intermediates and products and the consequences, in terms of rate
This chapter reviews various methods commonly used for achieving the cryogenic temperatures required of superconducting materials. The problems associated with cryogenic refrigerators (cryocoolers), such as poor reliability, low efficiency, electromagnetic

The crystal structures of two thermally stabilized subtilisin BPN' variants, S63 and S88, are reported here at 1.8 and 1.9 resolution, respectively. The micromolar affinity calcium-binding site (site A) has been deleted (δ 75-83) in these variants

WTT - Professional Edition, a Web version of the TRC Thermodynamic Tables, represents a complete collection of critically evaluated thermodynamic property data primarily for pure organic compounds. References to experimental data sources and information
Experimental data on the enthalpies of formation of chloromethanes, chloroethynes, chloroethenes, and chloroethanes are critically reviewed. Enthalpy of formation values for the C1 and C2 chlorinated hydrocarbons are highly cross-linked by various measured

By removing the enolpyruvyl group from chorismate, chorismate lyase (CL) produces p-hydroxybenzoate (p-HB) for the ubiquinone biosynthetic pathway. We have analyzed CL by several spectroscopic and chemical techniques and measured its kinetic (k cat = 1.7x

The PVTx relationships of dilute (1 – x)water + x toluene mixtures were measured in the near-critical and supercritical regions, with a constant-volume peizometer immersed in a precision thermostat. The ITS-90 temperature was measured with a 10 Ω} platinum
This chapter is concerned with the use of the single pulse shock tube for studying the mechanisms and rate constants for the decomposition of polyatomic molecules at elevated temperatures. It begins with a discussion of the technique. The requirements and
Radiolysis of liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium (BMI +) salts leads to formation of several species with similar absorption spectra. To identify and characterize these species, experiments were carried out with BMI + in solution under various conditions
Reliable kinetics data are necessary input for models describing the decomposition of gases in electric discharge or electron-beam devices. In this second part of a continuing series, we provide a core database describing the dominant reactions of neutral

Putidaredoxin (Pdx), a [2Fe-2S] redox protein of size M r transfers two electrons in two separate steps from the flavin containing putidaredoxin reductase to the heme protein, cytochrome CYP101 in the P450cam catalytic cycle. It has recently come to light

Decanethiol was coadsorbed with tetradecylmethyl viologen (C 14MV; 1-Methyl-1 -tetradecyl-4,4 -bipyridinium chloride) on gold electrodes in order to improve stability of C 14MV as an electrochemical mediator for coupling to nitrate reductase enzymes
This is a database of problems that arise from using a particular ab initio computational method with a particular molecule. It is intended to serve as a guide to prevent people from wasting resources struggling with known problems and to offer solutions
