which are lab-created trans-uranium elements (elements beyond uranium, which has an atomic number of 92), there is no "natural" abundance, according tothe Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). With these elements, the atomic weight of the longest-lived isotope gets listed on the ...
Because chlorine is part of PVC, it can result in the release of highly dangerous dioxins during manufacturing. Remember to never burn PVC, because it releases toxins. ♻️ Found in: Blister packaging, wire jacketing, siding, windows and piping ♻️ How to recycle it: PVC and V can...
So, we need 0.416 parts fuming HCl and 0.584 parts water to generate 5M HCl. In simple lab-friendly terms, this means diluting 42 mL of fuming HCl into 58 mL of water to generate 100 mL of our final 5M HCl. Here’s a step-by-step on how to do this: Add 35 mL of deionized wa...
The mechanism of inactivation is most likely related to damage of the capsid, but before reaching the melting point, DNA is released [39,40]. The most studied application of this disinfection method is the control of bacteriophages infecting lactic acid bacteria (LAB) [46]. Among these ...
Deacon argues that biological systems rely on a special form of interdependency between complementary morphodynamic processes in order to generate their constraints internally (see Teleodynamics below). To exemplify this he develops a simple and empirically testable molecular model involving two morphodynamic...
When the refrigerant is drawn into the compressor, it is in a low-pressure gaseous form. Once the gas is inside the pump, the compressor lives up to its name. The belt drives the pump, which puts the gas under pressure and forces it out to the condenser. Compressors cannot compress ...
The challenge was to generate receptors that are triggered by light, but transduce predetermined signaling pathways. To this end, Airan and collaborators rationally designed chimeric receptors where they kept the extracellular and transmembrane domains of the Gt-coupled bovine green-absorbing ...

It is also used commonly in construction materials, like vinyl siding. So if the chemicals in PVC may be dangerous, does that mean your vinyl siding is killing you? Home Health Hazard Image Gallery PVC contains chlorine, a hazardous chemical. But it also employs other chemicals to create the...
a form which is capable to generate space, further form, and landscape, a fragment that is still capable to inter- weave relationships with the context. While dismissed, decommissioned, or abandoned ar- chitecture is headed to turn into ruins, obsolescent ordinary construction is headed to turn...
