Unraveling the Stable Phase, High Absorption Coefficient, Optical and Mechanical Properties of Hybrid Perovskite CH3NH3PbxMg1–xI3: Density Functional Approach
A new carbon allotrope with an indirect bandgap of 2.06 eV has been predicted by density functional theory, which has a high absorption coefficient in the visible spectral range that is suitable for solar cell application.
Conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNs) have emerged as a new promising class of cancer theranostic agents due to their desirable optical features, such as high absorption coefficient and photoluminescence quantum yields,...
Since lead has a very high absorption coefficient μ, that the radiations from within the bulk material do not penetrate the layers. While, the oxygen and water (O2 and H2O)...
Antimony selenosulfide, Sb2(S,Se)3, has emerged as a promising light-harvesting material for its high absorption coefficient, suitable bandgap, low-toxic and low-cost constituents. However, the poor stability and high cost of widely...
3-Amino-1-phenylprop-1-ene (cinnamylamine) and some derivatives were examined as substrates for monoamine oxidases A and B in mitochondria. All of the amines examined were readily oxidized by monoamine oxidase B but much less readily by monoamine oxidase A. E-Cinnamylamine was found to have Km 0.025 mM and Vmax. 3.9 nmol/min per mg of mitochondrial protein. Corresponding values with monoamine oxidase A were 0.026 mM and 0.85 nmol/min per mg respectively. Despite their different stereochemistry, E- and Z-N-methylcinnamylamines were almost equally effective as substrates for monoamine oxidase B. The characteristic u.v. absorbance and high absorption coefficient of cinnamaldehyde, the product produced by enzymic oxidation of cinnamylamine, is utilized in a sensitive continuous spectrophotometric assay for both enzymes in the rat and for the assay of a purified monoamine oxidase B from bovine liver.
