Flow measurement is the generic term for the measurement of a volume flow per unit of time. The most common unit of measurement is cubic meters per second (m³/s), but other units are also common. In practice, devi...
The endometrium is the inner layer of the uterus that thickens during each menstrual cycle so that the embryo can implant and pregnancy can occur.
Kelsey Achenbach, head of marketing for Roquette's pharmaceutical global business unit, says chemistry degree-holders have an edge in the job market. She recommends that chem grads seek employment in the thriving pharmaceutical and health care sector. ...
If chemical reaction networks are to be used as computing devices, a necessary intermediate step is to design reaction systems that implement a given stoichiometric matrix. Constraints on the chemistry imposed by the desired network stoichiometry itself thus become an issue in the design process, ...
Phosphorus is an essential element for all living things, needed (in the form of phosphate, PO4) in cells for construction and renewal of DNA & RNA, of phospholipids, and of energy transduction molecules such as ATP. In vertebrates, PO4 (Pi, hereafter) is a main component of the mineral...
It’s quite an old discussion, but I need to add that the pH is not the negative log of the proton concentration (in that case it would in fact have the unit –log10(mol/L) or –log10(mg/L)).The pH is the negative log of the proton activity, and since an activity has no un...
Units are in kcal/mol. Full size image Condensation reactions For the condensation reactions of Si(OH)4 on to Al2 hydroxide dimers to form HASA and subsequently HASB, the condensation of a Si(OH)4 on to an Al2 or HASA unit was assumed to involve the interaction between two silanol grou...
In addition, FGF-23 plays an essential role in regulating the expression of the OPG gene [14]. Studies have found that FGF23 is elevated during critical illness, accompanied by bone loss [15]. The loss of bone can promote glucose intolerance or systemic inflammation, which can aggravate bone...
This current work is not intended to give a deep expose on any one topic rather highlight some of the seminal works in topical areas and bind them together. Over the past 5 years there has been an increase in the interest in the use of ferroelectric materials as photocatalysts, or their ...
Skin is a complex organ consisting of two very different tissue compartments, the epidermis and the dermis, which comprise cells of diverse origin and function. Establishing and maintaining the functionality of skin requires not only tightly regulated pr
