Oxygen and light accelerate recovery from SO2-induced inhibition of leaf photosynthesis and from cytoplasmic acidification
(Elsevier GmbH, 2000)
Leaves of several plant species were illuminated either in air or in a gas atmosphere with reduced oxygen content, and photosynthesis and transpiration were recorded after brief exposure to high concentrations of SO2. ...
Dielectric and piezoelectric properties of the mechanochemically prepared PZT ceramics
(Springer, New York, 2004)
Mechanochemical synthesis was applied to obtain nanocrystalline powders of composition Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O-3 (PZT). Milling was performed in a planetary ball mill using vials and balls made of zirconia or steel-in order to ...
ZL-DHP lignin model compound at the air-water interface
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2002)
In this paper we present our surface chemistry studies of enzymatically polymerized, poly-coniferyl alcohol lignin model compound (dehydrogenate polymer a.k.a. ZL-DHP) at the air-water interface. Using the CHCl3/MeOH (5:1 ...
Study of the lignin model compound supramolecular structure by combination of near-field scanning optical microscopy and atomic force microscopy
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2004)
In this paper, we present a nanoscale study of the supramolecular structure of the dehydrogenate polymer (ZL-DHP) lignin model compound. The combination of near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM or SNOM) and atomic ...
Effect of bicarbonate on uptake and translocation of Fe-59 in two grapevine rootstocks differing in their resistance to Fe deficiency chlorosis
(Bundesanstalt Zuchtungs Forschung Kulturpflanzen, Siebeldingen, 2000)
In order to study the effect of high bicarbonate concentration in the root medium on root Fe-III reduction, Fe uptake and its translocation to the leaves, two rootstocks (Vitis riparia Michx., susceptible, and 41 B (Vitis ...
Activity and stability of soluble and immobilized alpha-glucosidase from baker's yeast in cosolvent systems
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2006)
The activity of alpha-glucosidase from baker's yeast was determined in various concentrations of dioxan, tetrahydrofuran, tert-butanol, dimethylformamide, methanol and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). Higher activities were ...
Self-assembly of Mo6S (8) clusters on the Au(111) surface
(Springer, New York, 2007)
The preferred adsorption sites and the propensity for a self-organised growth of the molybdenum sulfide cluster Mo6S8 on the Au(111) surface are investigated by density-functional band-structure calculations with ...
Relevance of the capacity of phosphorylated fructose to scavenge the hydroxyl radical
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2009)
The hydroxyl radical ((OH)-O-center dot) has detrimental biological activity due to its very high reactivity. Our experiments were designed to determine the effects of equimolar concentrations of glucose, fructose and ...
Spectroscopic studies of SnO2 doped with Cr, Co or Nb
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd, 2003)
SnO2 ceramics doped with different amounts of Co, Cr or Nb were investigated using visible and infrared spectroscopy at room temperature. Based on the observed d-d transitions the valence states of incorporated dopants ...
Assessment of extinction risk and reasons for decline in sturgeon
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2006)
Sturgeon populations in the Danube River have been affected by a combination of hydropower development, over-harvesting, habitat degradation from agricultural and industrial practices and from urbanization. The effects of ...
