SummaryCasein phosphopeptides (GPP) were produced by tryptic hydrolysis of sodium caseinate and further purified by precipitation and chromatography on QAE-Sephadex A-25. Their physico-chemical properties were compared with the properties of an enzymically dephosphorylated equivalent preparation (DPP). Binding of Ca2+ to the peptides was measured using a Ca selective electrode and was found to increase with pH and to show 1/1 stoicheiometry Ca/Porg in CPP at pH 6·5 a.nd 7·6. Klotz plots indicated equivalent binding sites at these two pH values, but some heterogeneity was seen at pH 3·5. In contrast, DPP did not bind significant amounts of Ca2+.CPP effectively inhibited the formation of insoluble calcium phosphates at different Ca/P ratios. The effective CPP concentration was 10 mg/1 and complete stability of calcium phosphate solutions was obtained at about 100 mg/1. This stabilizing effect was dependent on the presence of organic P.

Biological effects of non-ionic surfactants on alkane-oxidizing bacteria were studied by assessing their influence on the uptake of prefluorochrome fluoresceindiacetate (FDA) and its intracellular hydrolysis to fluorescein. Both decreasing and increasing rates of hydrolysis as a consequence of the presence of surfactants were observed. The surfactants influenced the uptake of FDA, but not its intracellular hydrolysis. The effects of the surfactants on the uptake rate depended strongly on the structure and physico-chemical properties of the surfactants. There was no qualitative or significant quantitative difference in surfactant susceptibility between induced (alkane grown) and non-induced bacteria (acetate grown), even though the induced cells possess greater cell surface hydrophobicity.Key words: fluoresceindiacetate, bacteria, surfactants, alkane.

Development of novel TiO2 nanostructures as the photo-electrode material is one possible solution to control the competition between electron generation and recombination which is the main constraint of obtaining higher conversion efficiency of dye solar cell (DSC). By manipulating the synthesis process, desired TiO2 nanostructure with specific properties can be obtained to enhance solar energy conversion efficiency. In this study, the effect of calcinations temperature towards physico-chemical properties of synthesized TiO2 aggregates and their influence on overall light conversion efficiency of DSC has been investigated. TiO2 aggregates (0.45 µm) composing of nanocrystallites (10-40 nm), were synthesized through hydrolysis of dilute titanium alkoxide in ethanol. The synthesized samples have been characterized using FESEM, XRD and UV-Vis spectroscopy. DSCs were then assembled and evaluated using solar simulator under 100 mW/cm2 illuminations. The size of nanocrystallites was found to increase with increasing calcinations temperature where the 500°C produced the 21 nm sized nanocrystallites, the optimum size for highest absorption of the dye resulting in the highest efficiency. TiO2 aggregates-based DSC demonstrated better performance compared to nanoparticles (P-25)-based DSC. This is attributed to the enhanced scattering introduced by micron-sized aggregates.

Lignin plays a crucial role in enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass. To evaluate the correlation between lignin properties and its effects on enzymatic hydrolysis, five organosolv lignins (OLs) were isolated from woody biomass, and their physico-chemical properties and structural features were characterized. The effects of OL addition on enzymatic hydrolysis of microcrystalline cellulose (pure cellulose) were assessed first, which showed their disparate effects. The addition of three OLs increased the 72 h hydrolysis yield by 7.4% to 10.1%, while the addition of other two OLs reduced the 72 h hydrolysis yield by 3.2% to 20.4%. A strong correlation between the enzyme distribution coefficient on lignins and the 72 h hydrolysis yields indicated that the enzyme-lignin interaction played a significant role in determining the lignin effects. More importantly, a correlation between lignin properties (hydrophobicity, zeta potential, and particle size) and the enzyme distribution coefficient was established. Identifying the key lignin properties will give insights to reduce the lignin inhibition by altering the lignin properties, thereby promoting enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulose.

Fluoride, when incorporated in the apatite, stabilizes the structure. The purpose of this study was to determine the consequences of fluoride (F) substitution on the physico-chemical properties of apatites. F-containing apatites were prepared by precipitation or by hydrolysis of CaHPO4 in solutions containing different F concentrations and characterized using x-ray diffraction, FT-IR spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetry and chemical analyses. Results showed that F incorporation have the following effects: (a) decrease in a-axis dimension, (b) increase in crystal size and thickness, (c) decrease in calcium deficiency, and (d) lower solubility.

Cyanides, though naturally occurring, are environmental pollutants when not treated properly. Some methods used to attenuate cyanides in waste waters from industrial processes are based simply on changing the physico-chemical properties of the waste water such as the pH and temperature. The effectiveness of these methods are based on hydrolysis of the cyanide and volatilization of the hydrogen cyanide formed. Another reaction which takes place simultaneously is ultraviolet-catalysed oxidation which converts the cyanide to bicarbonates and carbonates.The changes in the cyanide degradation rate approaches a minimum faster if the cyanide solution is maintained at a higher than ambient constant temperature.

Fracturing under ultrahigh vacuum (UHV, p ≤ 10-9 Torr) produces membrane fracture faces devoid of contamination. Such clean surfaces are a prerequisite foe studies of interactions between condensing molecules is possible and surface forces are unequally distributed, the condensate will accumulate at places with high binding forces; crystallites will arise which may be useful a probes for surface sites with specific physico-chemical properties. Specific “decoration” with crystallites can be achieved nby exposing membrane fracture faces to water vopour. A device was developed which enables the production of pure water vapour and the controlled variation of its partial pressure in an UHV freeze-fracture apparatus (Fig.1a). Under vaccum (≤ 10-3 Torr), small container filled with copper-sulfate-pentahydrate is heated with a heating coil, with the temperature controlled by means of a thermocouple. The water of hydration thereby released enters a storage vessel.

SummaryPhysico-chemical properties of recombinant desulphatohirudin expressed in yeast (CIBA GEIGY code No. CGP 39393) were reinvestigated. As previously reported for natural hirudin, the recombinant molecule exhibited abnormal behaviour by gel filtration with an apparent molecular weight greater than that based on the primary structure. However, molecular weight estimation by SDS gel electrophoresis, FAB-mass spectrometry and Photon Correlation Spectroscopy were in agreement with the theoretical molecular weight, with little suggestion of dimer or aggregate formation. Circular dichroism studies of the recombinant molecule show similar spectra at different pH values but are markedly different from that reported by Konno et al. (13) for a natural hirudin-variant. Our CD studies indicate the presence of about 60% beta sheet and the absence of alpha helix in the secondary structure of recombinant hirudin, in agreement with the conformation determined by NMR studies (17)
