The effectiveness of lethal weapons is predominantly dependent on the overpressure generated and blast effect. Reactive structure materials (RSM) can be made of either metal-polymer mixtures or represent intermetallic phases.

Improving the damage potential of W-Zr reactive structure material under extreme loading condition
Projectiles made of reactive structure materials (RSM) can damage the target with not only kinetic but also chemical energy, but the enhanced damage potential of RSM may become compromised if extreme loading condition disintegrates the projectile before ...

C-reactive protein: structure, function, regulation, and role in clinical diseases
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a plasma protein that is evolutionarily conserved, found in both vertebrates and many invertebrates. It is a member of the pentraxin superfamily, characterized by its pentameric structure and calcium-dependent binding to ...

Reactive Structural Materials: Preparation and Characterization
Reactive structural materials, which can serve both as structural elements as well as a source of chemical energy released upon initiation have emerged as an important class of metal‐based composites for use in various energetic systems. Such materials rely on a variety of exothermic reactions, from oxidation to formation of metal‐metalloid and ...

Flavohemoglobin: Structure and reactivity [PDF]
AbstractFlavohemoglobins (flavoHbs) are made of a globin domain fused with a ferredoxin reductaselike FAD‐ and NAD‐binding modules. These proteins are widely represented among bacteria and yeasts and represent a most challenging research subject in view of their high reactivity both as reductases and as oxidases.

2-Styrylchromones: Cytotoxicity and Modulation of Human Neutrophils’ Oxidative Burst
Neutrophils are polymorphonuclear leukocytes recruited to sites of acute inflammation, in response to pathogen invasion and tissue injury. The modulation of their activity, especially oxidative burst, may be important to control the inflammatory process.
