Purified Bacillus Anthracis Lethal Toxin Complex Formed In Vitro and During Infection Exhibits Functional and Biological Activity

March 18, 2005
Author(s)
Rekha Panchal, Kelly Halverson, Wilson Ribot, Douglas Lane, Tara Kenny, Teresa G. Abshire, John W. Ezzell, Timothy A. Hoover, Bradford Powell, Stephen Little, John J. Kasianowicz, Sina Bavari
Anthrax protective antigen (PA, 83 kDa), a pore-forming protein upon protease activation to 63 kDa (PA63), translocates lethal factor (LF) and edema factor (EF) from endosomes into the cytosol of the cell. The relatively small size of the heptameric PA63

Genotyping SNPs Using a UV Photocleavable Oligonucleotide in MALDI-TOF MS

March 17, 2005
Author(s)
Peter M. Vallone, K Fahr, M Kostrzewa
Matrix assisted laser desorption time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) coupled with allele specific primer extension is a proven method for typing single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). A novel modification upon this methodology is the

Developing a More Rapid Test to Assess Sulfate Resistance of Hydraulic Cements

March 16, 2005
Author(s)
Chiara F. Ferraris, Paul E. Stutzman, Max A. Peltz, John A. Winpigler
External sulfate attack of concrete is a major problem that can appear in regions where concrete is exposed to soil or water containing sulfates, leading to softening and cracking of the concrete. Therefore, it is important that materials selection and

Thermal decomposition kinetics of RP-1 rocket propellant

March 16, 2005
Author(s)
Peter C. Andersen, Thomas J. Bruno
As part of a thermophysical and transport property measurement project, the global decomposition kinetics of the kerosene based rocket propellant, RP-1, was investigated. We measured the decomposition of RP-1 at elevated temperatures (that is, under

Marilyn R. Yetzbacher, William M. Haynes
Umbrella site for 3 conferences (thermophysical properties, thermodynamics, calorimetry) to be held in Boulder in 2006. Contains information about the conferences, contact information, housing, tours, and registration.

Electrical Characterization of Al/AlOx/Molecule/Ti/Al Devices?

March 11, 2005
Author(s)
Curt A. Richter, D R. Stewart, D A. Ohlberg, R. S. Williams
We report experimental electrical characterization of Al/AlOx/Molecule/Ti/Al planar crossbar devices incorporating Langmuir-Blodgett organic monolayers of eicosanoic acid, fast-blue or chlorophyll-B. Current-voltage and capacitance-voltage measurements on

Progress in scale-up of second-generation high-temperature superconductors at SuperPower Inc

March 9, 2005
Author(s)
Y Y. Xie, A Knoll, Y Chen, Y Li, Xiaoxiong Xiong, You-Lin Qiao, P Hou, J Reeves, T Salagaj, K Lenseth, L Civale, B Maiorov, Y Iwasa, V Solovyov, M Suenaga, Najib Cheggour, Cameron C. Clickner, John (Jack) W. Ekin, C Weber, V Selvamanickam
SuperPower is focused on scaling up second-generation (2-G) high-temperature superconductor (HTS) technology to pilot-scale manufacturing. The emphasis of this program is to develop R&D solutions for scale-up issues in pilot-scale operations to lay the

Boundary Lubricating Film: Formation and Lubrication Mechanism

March 4, 2005
Author(s)
Stephen M. Hsu, Richard S. Gates
Boundary lubricating films are critical in effective lubrication of engine components. Their formation mechanism has not been fully understood because of the large variations of chemistry and machinery in operation. Various reports on boundary lubricating

Boundary Lubrication and Boundary Lubricating Film

March 3, 2005
Author(s)
Stephen M. Hsu, Richard S. Gates
This chapter offers a comprehensive summary of current understanding in boundary lubrication and the formation of boundary lubricating films. Classical and modern definitions of boundary lubrication are presented which serve to define the scope of boundary

Influence of Focus Variation on Linewidth Measurements

March 3, 2005
Author(s)
M Tanaka, John S. Villarrubia, Andras Vladar
The influence of spatial resolution on line width measurements in the critical dimension scanning electron microscope (CD-SEM) was investigated experimentally. Measurement bias variation and measurement repeatabilities of four edge detection algorithms

Quantum Computing With Realistically Noisy Devices

March 3, 2005
Author(s)
Emanuel H. Knill
There are quantum algorithms that can efficiently simulate quantum physics, factor large numbers and estimate integrals. As a result, quantum computers can solve otherwise intractable computational problems. One of the main problems of experimental quantum
