It is a truth universally acknowledged that the major constituent of sea water is water itself, typically representing some 96.5% of Earths largest fluid mass. But by far the greatest emphasis of ocean chemists has traditionally been on the complex interactions of the small fraction (~ 3.5%) of...
The thallus of P. canaliculata is entirely covered by a mucilaginous layer mainly composed of sulphated polysac- charides, while alginic acid is the main constituent of the cell wall (see Sect. "Carbohydrates" for more details on polysac- charide composition) (Evans et al. 1973). ...
The composition analysis indicates the presence of a number of different constituent monosaccharides associated with the eggshells. The occurrence of mannose residues (three in every N-linked glycan core) suggests that N-linked glycans are present, but in addition O-linked glycans or other glycan ...
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a synthetic lubricating oil excellent in abrasion resistance, evaporation resistance, further exhibiting stable fluidity and having lubrication performance stable within a wide temperature range and under a wide use condition, and an ionic liquid composition useful for ...
Recently, we have shown that when neat glycine is heated to 200 °C, the main organic product is a black, sparingly water-soluble “thermomelanoid” (Fox et al.2015). Is this reaction affected by the presence of minerals and rocks? In the present paper, we report the thermal properties...
In the case of Kamchatka, sediment contributions are minor. Therefore, HESC and underlying AOC would be the main contributors to fluids that feed potential serpentinite formation in the forearc mantle, as hinted by both heavy (HESC) and light (AOC) ɛ205Tl values in the EVF lavas (Figs....
Used gene sets and related statistics for this analysis can be found in Supplementary Data2.eGSEA was performed for “GOBP: mitotic cell cycle”, “GOBP: DNA replication”, “GOMF: extracellular matrix structural constituent”, “GOBP: tissue migration”, and “Hallmark: inflammatory response”...
Calcium ion is tightly regulated in body fluids and for euryhaline fish, which are exposed to rapid changes in environmental [Ca2+], homeostasis is especially challenging. The gill is the main organ of active calcium uptake and therefore plays a crucial
This overview presents the updated physicochemical characteristics of thallium and its stable isotopes (205Tl/203Tl) in the context of their occurrence and
Sea salt also scatters the solar radiation because of strong refractive index and can attain near to unity single scattering albedo4. On the other hand, it can also act as an efficient hygroscopic cloud condensation nuclei that elevate the water uptake to form clouds and can affect net radiativ...
