Molecular Sensors for Moisture Detection by Mössbauer Spectroscopy

2002

A parameter of importance in various industrial and commercial applications is sensitivity to moisture. A new class of molecular sensors which enable the qualitative and quantitative determination of air moisture (high selectivity and sensitivity) by application of Mossbauer spectroscopy as the probe technique has been investigated. The electronic properties of the iron-containing sensor depend upon the presence of moisture which is taken up by it and this process is accompanied by a change in electronic spin ground state which can be detected by Mossbauer spectroscopy. The sensor is suitable for in-field and industrial application using the recently developed Mossbauer spectrometer MIMOS I…

Wilson maxillary curve analyzed by cbct a study on normocclusion and malocclusion individuals

2013

The anatomy of dental compensation curve in the frontal plane described by George H. Wilson is one of the occlusal determinants of orthodontic treatment. However, there is few published comparing malocclusion and normocclusion individuals. Objectives: The aim of this study is to compare the curve of Wilson at first and second maxillary molars, normocclusion pattern and malocclusion pattern, with and without bilateral posterior crossbite, using angular references in CBCT studies. Material and Methods: We analyzed 10 cases of malocclusion with bilateral posterior crossbite, 10 cases of malocclusion without bilateral posterior crossbite and 10 cases with non orthodontic normocclusion (patients…

Nonsurgical treatment of an adult with skeletal Class III malocclusion, anterior crossbite, and an impacted canine

2021

Class III malocclusion presents some complexity in terms of diagnosis and treatment and affects not only the jaws but the whole craniofacial complex. Besides, functional forward displacement of the mandible may be diagnosed in a patient presenting Class III malocclusion, as the 2 entities are not incompatible or mutually exclusive. This case report describes the multidisciplinary, nonsurgical, orthodontic treatment of an adult patient with a skeletal Class III malocclusion, anterior crossbite, and a palatally impacted canine, treated with fixed appliances and skeletal anchorage. To upright the mandibular molars, distalize the whole mandibular arch, and avoid excessive inclination of maxilla…

The dynamics of (57)Fe nuclei in Fe(III)-DNA condensates.

2001

Abstract The dynamics of iron nuclei in the condensates obtained by interaction of Fe III with DNA, Fe III (DNA monomer) 2 , have been investigated by variable temperature 57 Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy. Studies were effected on gel and freeze-dried samples, obtaining nearly coincident values of the parameters isomer shift and nuclear quadrupole splitting in T ranges 20–260 K. Functions ln( A T / A 77.3 ) vs. T , here employed to investigate the dynamics of Fe nuclei, showed linear trends in the T ranges 20–150 and 150–260 K, respectively, the latter with larger slopes. Data coincided for gelled and freeze-dried specimens. No variation of δ or Δ E parameters occurred at the two T intervals, w…

Spin Crossover in a Supramolecular Fe4II [2×2] Grid Triggered by Temperature, Pressure, and Light

2000

A multiplex electronic switch on the molecular level has been realized by using a tetranuclear FeII complex of the [2×2] grid type. The four metal ions can be switched stepwise between their high-spin and low-spin states by temperature, pressure, and light, thus representing a triple level, triple switch system as illustrated in the picture.

Synthesis and immobilization of molecular switches onto titaniumdioxide nanowires

2009

Abstract The precursor [Fe III (L)Cl (L =  N , N ′-bis(2′-hydroxy-3′-methyl-benzyliden)-1,7-diamino-4-azaheptane) is combined with [Mo(CN) 8 ] 4− yields a star shaped nona-nuclear cluster, [Mo IV {(CN)Fe III (L)} 8 ]Cl 4 . This Fe 8 Mo molecule is a high-spin system at room temperature. On cooling to 20 K some of the iron(III) centres in the molybdenum(IV)-star switch to the low-spin state as proven by Mossbauer spectroscopy. This molecule was deposited on TiO 2 nanowires by electrostatic interactions between the cluster cations and the surface functionalized titanium oxide nanowire. The synthesis and surface binding of the multistable molecular switch was demonstrated using IR and UV–Vis s…

Measurement uncertainty impact on simplified load flow analysis in MV smart grids

2018

This work is focused on the measurement uncertainty impact on load flow analysis in medium voltage (MV) distribution networks. In more detail, the paper presents the uncertainty evaluation of a simplified load flow algorithm, which is based on the load power measurements at each secondary substation and one voltage measurement at the slack bus (i.e. the voltage at the MV bus bars of the primary substation). To reduce the costs of the monitoring system, the load flow algorithm makes use of LV load power measurements for all the substations except those of MV users, where MV transducers are usually already installed. The uncertainties on the algorithm input quantities (load powers and slack b…

Hypertrophic agonists induce the binding of c-Fos to an AP-1 site in cardiac myocytes: implications for the expression of GLUT1

2003

Objectives: Serum is among the agents known to induce hypertrophy of cardiac myocytes, which occurs concomitant with an increase in AP-1-mediated transcription. We have examined if this effect correlates with changes in the relative abundance of particular AP-1 heterodimers, as their exact composition under these conditions is unknown. Furthermore, we obtained insight on the specific role of c-Fos from studying the induction of the glucose transporter GLUT1 by serum in fibroblasts. Methods: We characterised the AP-1 heterodimers expressed in neonatal cardiac myocytes by supershift electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) analysis. Quantitative changes in transcription were measured using…

Role of Indian fluxes in the intraseasonal 10-30 days variability of the African monsoon.

2018

12 pages; International audience; This study focused on the influence of Indian monsoon on the 10-30 days variability of the West African monsoon. One relies on the 500-300 hPa moisture fluxes calculated from specific wind and moisture fields from the ERAInterim reanalysis over the 1998-2008 period. These fluxes carry a signal of a spatio-temporal Rossby wave structure propagating westward from India. In the active phase of high convection of this wave, 500-300 hPa fluxes are Easterly. This high-tropospheric Rossby wave signal from the Indian monsoon area would modulate the dynamics over the Sahel.
