Recent advances in experimental techniques to probe fast excited-state dynamics in biological molecules in the gas phase : dynamics in nucleotides, amino acids and beyond [PDF]
In many chemical reactions, an activation barrier must be overcome before a chemical transformation can occur. As such, understanding the behaviour of molecules in energetically excited states is critical to understanding the chemical changes that these ...

Proton Availability at the Air/Water Interface [PDF]
The acidity of the water surface sensed by a colliding gas is determined in experiments in which the protonation of gaseous trimethylamine (TMA) on aqueous microjets is monitored by online electrospray mass spectrometry as a function of the pH of the ...

Abstract The Environmental Seismic Intensity (ESI) scale has been officially released in 2007 and is based on the quantification of Earthquake Environmental Effects. Due to its quantitative nature, the scale improves the process of assessing macroseismic intensities, particularly in the epicentral area of those cases in which sole traditional ...

Mass Spectrometric Characterization of Oligomers in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Azurin Solutions [PDF]
We have employed laser-induced liquid bead ion desorption mass spectroscopy (LILBID MS) to study the solution behavior of Pseudomonas aeruginosa azurin as well as two mutants and corresponding Re-labeled derivatives containing a Re(CO)_(3)(4,7-dimethyl-1,

The 1688 Sannio–Matese Earthquake: A Dataset of Environmental Effects Based on the ESI-07 Scale
The 1688 Sannio–Matese earthquake, with a macroseismically derived magnitude of Mw = 7 and an epicentral intensity of IMCS = XI, had a deep impact on Southern Italy, causing thousands of casualties, extensive damage and significant environmental effects (

Bioprocess Development for Lantibiotic Ruminococcin-A Production in Escherichia coli and Kinetic Insights Into LanM Enzymes Catalysis [PDF]
Ruminococcin-A (RumA) is a peptide antibiotic with post-translational modifications including thioether cross-links formed from non-canonical amino acids, called lanthionines, synthesized by a dedicated lanthionine-generating enzyme RumM.

Temperature dependent NIR emitting lanthanide-PMO/silica hybrid materials [PDF]
Two materials - a mesoporous silica (MS) and a periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMO) functionalized with dipyridyl-pyridazine (dppz) units were grafted with near-infrared (NIR) emitting lanthanide (Nd3+, Er3+, Yb3+) complexes in an attempt to obtain ...

Metabolic profiling of human plasma and urine in chronic kidney disease by hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography coupled with time-of-flight mass spectrometry : a pilot study [PDF]
A typical characteristic of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is the progressive loss in renal function over a period of months or years with the concomitant accumulation of uremic retention solutes in the body.

The Wenchuan earthquake of 12 May 2008 in Sichuan Province, China, can be classified as a large-scale event based on the tectonic structures that triggered the earthquake and the effects caused on the human, structural, and natural environment. This paper presents the geotectonic and seismotectonic regime of the earthquake-affected region on the basis
