Crystal structure and solution thermodynamics of the lactate complex Zn[(C3H5O3)2(H2O)2]⋅H2O(s)

open access: yesChemical Thermodynamics and Thermal Analysis, 2022
An important trihydrated lactate complex Zn[(C3H5O3)2(H2O)2]⋅H2O(s) was synthesized. Crystal structure was characterized by X-ray single crystal diffractometer, and molecular structure, spatial structure and coordination mode of the complex were ...

Temperature Dependence of the Parameters in the Pitzer Equations [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Chemical & Engineering Data, 2017
The effects of temperature on the virial coefficients in the Pitzer equations are not known in general, and this is because the vast majority of experiments performed to investigate the properties of the aqueous electrolytes were conducted only at a temperature of 25 °C. Consequently, most of the parameters in the Pitzer equations that are available in

A practical electrodialysis model for accelerating system development

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Empirical optimization of electrodialysis (ED) is dependent on repetitive experiments with incremental adjustments, which is cost prohibitive at scale. While models can reduce the costs associated with optimization and scale‐up, existing ED models are limited in application to specific use cases and tend to be developed for the exploration of ...

On the importance of including both sexes in animal studies – insights from home‐cage monitoring

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A review of behavioural studies using home‐cage monitoring (HCM) systems revealed that over 61% of studies used only male subjects, with only 24% including both sexes, despite evidence of substantial behavioural differences between male and female animals. This bias could influence the outcomes of biomedical research.

Remembering Melodies from Another Culture: Turkish and American Listeners Demonstrate Implicit Knowledge of Musical Scales [PDF]

open access: yesAnalytical Approaches to World Music, 2019
Beyond the major-minor tonality that characterizes classical and contemporary Western musical genres, Turkish classical and folk music offer experimental psychologists a rich modal system in which cognition, development, and enculturation can be studied.

Spermatogenesis in haploid males of the jewel wasp Nasonia vitripennis

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Males of hymenopteran insects, which include ants, bees and wasps, develop as haploids from unfertilized eggs. In order to accommodate their lack of homologous chromosome pairs, some hymenopterans such as the honeybee have been shown to produce haploid ...

Gibbs energy minimization thermodynamics for CO2 capture by aqueous amines: Conservation laws, concentration variables, and parameter consistency

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
We clarify how Gibbs‐energy‐minimization models for aqueous‐amine CO2 capture fail when conservation constraints and concentration conventions are inconsistent. Exact standard‐state conversions and Reaktoro case studies show that P(CO2)‐loading fits can mask non‐unique parameters and wrong speciation, motivating complete water‐inclusive formulations ...
