Bargaining, binding contracts, and competitive wages

Games and Economic Behavior, 2003
In a model where many workers bargain with one firm and sign binding contracts, the existence of a stationary subgame perfect equilibrium is shown. If the production function satisfies decreasing returns, each worker receives a share of his marginal product (treating all other workers as employed) in equilibrium. Thus, wages are competitive. This is in

Adrenocorticotropin Measurement by Competitive Binding Receptor Assay

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1972
A competitive binding assay using the cortical receptor from normal adrenal glands has been developed for ACTH. In this assay porcine, human or rabbit ACTH has been shown to compete with labeled porcine ACTH for the cortical receptor from ovine, rabbit or rat adrenal glands.

Competitive and noncompetitive reversible binding processes

Physical Review E, 1993
This work treats many-body aspects in an idealized class of reversible binding problems involving a static binding site with many diffusing point particles. In the noncompetitive limit, where no restriction exists on the number of simultaneously bound particles, the problem reduces to reversible aggregation.

Competitive Binding Among Oral Streptococci to Hydroxyapatite

Journal of Dental Research, 1977
The relative affinity of various oral streptococci for hydroxyapatite (HA) differed widely. Streptococcus mutans affinity for dextran-coated HA was the highest of all the streptococci to any HA coating. S salivarius had the lowest affinity, and S sanguis affinity was higher than S miteor for saliva-coated HA.

Competitive protein-binding radioassay for retinoic acid

Analytical Biochemistry, 1980
Rat testes cytosol treated by Blue Sepharose was employed in a simple and sensitive method for the determination of retinoic acid in the rat serum, liver, and intestine. The method permits the detection of as little as 3 ng of retinoic acid. The mean concentrations of retinoic acid in normal male rats were 33.5 ng/ml of serum, 624.9 ng/g wet wt of ...

Receptor conformational change induces fluoride binding despite competitive water binding

Chemical Communications, 2013
Fluoride binding by artificial receptors in water remains a challenging task due to the high hydration enthalpy of this anion. A novel cationic boron-based tripodal receptor featuring three flexible ammonium-containing arms has been prepared. NMR spectroscopy studies show that the receptor is capable of binding selectively the fluoride anion with high ...

Modeling binding equilibrium in a competitive estrogen receptor binding assay

Chemosphere, 2007
Although the free concentration is more significant in the environmental chemistry and toxicology of receptor-mediated toxicants, few studies have been conducted to use it as a dose-metric. The relative binding affinity of three model endocrine disrupting compounds, diethylstilbestrol (DES), ethynylestradiol (EE2), and bisphenol A (BPA), were evaluated

Competitive Protein-Binding Assay for 25-Hydroxycholecalciferol

Clinical Science, 1974
1. A competitive protein-binding assay for plasma 25-hydroxycholecalciferol was developed, using Sephadex LH-20 columns for the isolation of the sterol and a partially purified protein from rat serum as the binding protein. 2. The mean plasma 25-hydroxycholecalciferol in eighteen male and female normal volunteers was 38 ± SD 14 pmol/ml ...

Cefmenoxime and Bilirubin: Competition for Albumin Binding

Pharmacology & Toxicology, 1991
Abstract:Certain drugs are known to compete with bilirubin for albumin binding; therefore, all drugs administered to neonates should be tested to determine the degree of competition. The effect of cefmenoxime on bilirubin‐albumin binding was determined by comparing the oxidation rate of free bilirubin in the presence and absence of drug.
