Two methods for the determination of methionine in proteins have been used to estimate the extent of methionine sulfoxide obtained upon exposure of proteins to oxidizing agents. Both methods are based on prior treatment with cyanogen bromide, which attacks methionines

Infection by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Breath analysis could potentially be a useful diagnostic of such infection, and analyses of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from PA

Negative chemotaxis, the movement of organisms away from chemicals, was investigated in Pseudomonas aeruginosa using a rapid videotape method. Digital image processing was used to detect changes in bacterial numbers near the mouth of a capillary containing a test chemical.

Almost all of the chlorine-containing gas emitted from natural sources is methyl chloride (CH(3)Cl), which contributes to the destruction of the stratospheric ozone layer. Tropical and subtropical plants emit substantial amounts of CH(3)Cl. A gene involved in CH(3)Cl emission from

Methylisothiocyanate (CH(3)NCS) was photolyzed at 193 and 248 nm, and the resulting time-resolved infrared emission was observed. Similar experiments were performed on methylthiocyanate (CH(3)SCN) photolyzed at 193 nm. Previous work suggested that these isomers undergo excited-state isomerization prior to dissociation
