Molecular bases of insect odorant receptor function: specificity and evolution
ABSTRACT Insect odorant receptors (ORs) are a class of chemoreceptors that insects use to detect volatile cues in their environment. In recent years, major advances in the field of structural biology have made it possible to obtain the first structures of insect ORs.

Curing and Decomposition Behaviour of Cresol Novolac Based Vinyl Ester Resin
Vinyl ester resins were prepared from o, m, p-cresol epoxy novolac resin and methacrylic acid in the presence of triphenyl phosphine as catalyst and hydroquinone as polymerization inhibitor. The vinyl esterresin samples having acid value of ~ 7 mg of KOH/

Biodegradation of p-cresol by Pseudomonas spp.
AbstractPhenols are toxic to several biochemical reactions. However, biological transformation of phenols to nontoxic entities exists in specialized microbes, owing to enzymatic potential involving enzymes of aromatic catabolic pathways. In this study, a series of experiments were performed to examine the effects of the mineral medium composition and ...
