Surface properties of Saccharomyces cerevisiae lees during sparkling wine ageing and their effect on flocculation
2009
Cell surface properties were determined for the first time for lees of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and they proved to be significantly dependent on the time of sparkling wine ageing on lees. Cell surface hydrophobicity decreased from approximately 44% to 11% of affinity to hexadecane. Electron acceptor capacity (calculated as % affinity to ethyl acetate-% affinity to decane) increased from approximately -27% to 10 % and zeta potential from approximately -4 to 6mV. Mannoproteins are released from the external cell wall layer during the autolytic process, as confirmed by TOF-SIMS analysis of the cell wall chemical composition. This could explain the modifications of lees cell surface properties…
Phase separation of an asymmetric binary fluid mixture confined in a nanoscopic slit pore: Molecular-dynamics simulations
2008
As a generic model system of an asymmetric binary fluid mixture, hexadecane dissolved in carbon dioxide is considered, using a coarse-grained bead-spring model for the short polymer, and a simple spherical particle with Lennard-Jones interactions for the carbon dioxide molecules. In previous work, it has been shown that this model reproduces the real phase diagram reasonable well, and also the initial stages of spinodal decomposition in the bulk following a sudden expansion of the system could be studied. Using the parallelized simulation package ESPResSo on a multiprocessor supercomputer, phase separation of thin fluid films confined between parallel walls that are repulsive for both types…
Determination of the Pore Topology of Zeolite IM-5 by Means of Catalytic Test Reactions and Hydrocarbon Adsorption Measurements
2000
Abstract The pore topology of a recently synthesized zeolite IM-5 has been determined by means of catalytic test reactions, i.e., n -decane hydroisomerization–cracking, m -xylene isomerization–disproportionation, n -hexadecane isodewaxing, and adsorption–microcalorimetry of molecules with different sizes and shapes ( n -hexane, toluene, m -xylene, and 1,3,5 trimethylbenzene). It has been found that the channel network consists of a system of unidirectional 10 MR with lobes or side pockets, or crossing 10 membered ring pores with a pore diameter somewhat smaller than those in ZSM-5. This structure offers interesting shape selectivity features for catalytic reactions.
Formation of α-ω(4,7,10,13-pentaoxa-16-azacyclooctadecane) hexadecane micelles in aqueous solution – effect of HCl addition
2003
The structure of aggregates of a new bolaform surfactant [α-ω (4,7,10,13-pentaoxa-16-azacyclooctadecane) hexadecane] in neat aqueous solution has been investigated by small-angle neutron scattering. Preliminary data analysis unequivocally indicates that globular micelles are formed. This finding has been confirmed by the analysis of data obtained upon addition of hydrochloric acid. The observed significant reduction of micelle aggregation number has been attributed to the peculiar complexing ability of the two aza-crown ether units in the surfactant molecule; this is in line with information inferred from the complexation of ions into the non alkylated azacrown ethers. As a consequence of h…
New Synthesis oftrans-Disubstituted Cyclam Macrocycles – Elucidation of the Disubstitution Mechanism on the Basis of X-ray Data and Molecular Modeling
1998
A new way to synthesize trans-disubstituted cyclam tetraazamacrocycles 1 is reported. The synthesis proceeds in three steps via the tricyclic 1,4,8,11-tetraazatricyclo[9.3.1.14,8]hexadecane system 2, which can be selectively dialkylated and hydrolyzed under basic conditions to give the final product 1. An understanding of the reactivity, based on the X-ray experimental electrostatic potential and molecular modeling of the 1,4,8,11-tetraazatricyclo[9.3.1.14,8]hexadecane macrotricycle, has permitted the elucidation of a new reaction pathway leading to the trans-disubstituted cyclam.
