A High‐Capacity Negative Electrode for Asymmetric Supercapacitors Based on a PMo 12 Coordination Polymer with Novel Water‐Assisted Proton Channels

2020

The development of a negative electrode for supercapacitors is a critical challenge for the next-generation of energy-storage devices. Herein, two new electrodes formed by the coordination polymers [Ni(itmb)4 (HPMo12 O40 )]·2H2 O (1) and [Zn(itmb)3 (H2 O)(HPMo12 O40 )]·4H2 O (2) (itmb = 1-(imidazo-1-ly)-4-(1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene), synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method, are described. Compounds 1 and 2 show high capacitances of 477.9 and 890.2 F g-1 , respectively. An asymmetric supercapacitor device assembled using 2 which has novel water-assisted proton channels as negative electrode and active carbon as positive electrode shows ultrahigh energy density and power density of…

Conditioned taste aversion in rats for a threonine-deficient diet

2000

Rats avoid a diet that is deficient in one or more essential amino acids (EAAs). This phenomenon is thought to involve the development of a "learned aversion" for the sensory properties or spatial placement associated with the deficient diet. The dietary self-selection technique has been widely used to show this avoidance of the deficient diet. Because avoidance does not necessarily imply taste aversion, we used the Taste Reactivity Test initially created by Grill and Norgren (1978) to analyze the affective reactivity pattern of rats that ingested a threonine-deficient diet. The results showed that there was an increase in the aversive responses when ingesting the threonine-deficient (Thr-D…

Lithium intercalation chemistry, microstructure and superconductivity in zirconium and hafnium nitride halides

2000

Abstract Lithium intercalation in β-MNX (M=Zr, Hf; X=Cl, Br) leads to superconducting compounds with critical temperatures between 12 and 24 K. The lithium uptakes after treatment of the host materials with n-butyllithium/hexane solutions are ca. 0.2 atoms per formula for β-ZrNCl and β-ZrNBr, and between 0.07 and 0.67 for β-HfNCl. Electrochemical lithiation experiments agree with the results obtained with chemical methods, as samples with larger capacity on discharge are also those having larger lithium contents after chemical lithiation. Variations exist in the electrochemical profiles of different batches for the three compounds indicating differences in the intercalation reaction pathway…

Ontogenetic variations of some enzymes indicentrarchus labrax(Serranidae)

1989

Abstract The ontogenesis of isozyme patterns of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), glycerol‐3‐phosphate dehydrogenase (α‐GPDH), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), malate dehydrogenase (MDH), glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase (G‐6‐PD) and glucosephosphate isomer‐ase (GPI) in Dicentrarchus labrax was studied. ADH is active only in the liver of the adult; a‐GPDH is active in only two tissues in the adult: the A2 isozyme in white skeletal muscle and the B2 isozyme in the liver. Differential gene expression was found only for LDH, MDH and GPI, which have polymeric structure. The LDH, MDH and GPI isozymes 30 days after hatching were completely active and showed patterns very similar to those of the adult. Sp…

Über den Abbau von L-Äpfelsäure durch Hefen verschiedener Gattungen mit Malatenzym

1974

Summary (1) The aerobic assimilation of malic acid is not a character of certain yeast genera or species as was shown by testing more than 300 different strains. Single strains of the following-species were found to grow on malic acid as the only carbon source: Candida pulcherrima, C. utilis, C. mycoderma, Torulopsis famata, Pichia membranaefaciens, P. wickerhamii, Hansenula capsulata, Trigonopsis variabilis , and Zygosaccharomyces chevalieri . (2) During fermentation C. pulcherrima and T. famata decompose up to 40% and C. utilis up to 80% of the L-malic acid that is present in the medium. (3) L-Malic acid is decomposed to CO 2 and the corresponding amounts of ethanol or pyruvate by cell fr…

Advanced descriptors for long-range noncovalent interactions between SARS-CoV-2 spikes and polymer surfaces.

2021

The recent pandemic triggered numerous societal efforts aimed to control and limit the spread of SARS-CoV-2. One of these aspects is related on how the virion interacts with inanimate surfaces, which might be the source of secondary infection. Although recent works address the adsorption of the spike protein on surfaces, there is no information concerning the long-range interactions between spike and surfaces, experimented by the virion when is dispersed in the droplet before its possible adsorption. Some descriptors, namely the interaction potentials per single protein and global potentials, were calculated in this work. These descriptors, evaluated for the closed and open states of the sp…

Crystal structure of isobutylammonium hydrogen oxalate hemihydrate

2014

In the title hydrated molecular salt, C4H12N+·C2HO4−·0.5H2O, the O atom of the water molecule lies on a crystallographic twofold axis. The dihedral angle between the CO2and CO2H planes of the anion is 18.47 (8)°. In the crystal, the anions are connected to each other by strong near-linear O—H...O hydrogen bonds. The water molecules are located between the chains of anions and isobutylamine cations; their O atoms participate as donors and acceptors, respectively, in O—H...O and N—H...O hydrogen bonds, which form channels (dimensions = 4.615 and 3.387 Å) arranged parallel to [010].
