The main aims of this work were (a) to present the characteristics and stability of the o-phthalaldehyde (OPA)-ethanethiol (ET) derivatives of 22 amino acids, including the believed-to-be less stable OPA derivatives providing glycine, gamma-aminobutyric acid, beta-alanine, histidine, ornithine, lysine and

A series of adsorptive photocatalysts, combined titania-montmorillonite-silica were synthesized. The resultant photocatalysts consisted of more and more spherically agglomerated TiO(2) particles with increasing of TiO(2) content, and anatase was the only crystalline phase with nano-scale TiO(2) particles. With increasing of

Previously, we have demonstrated postcolumn derivatization of proteins separated by capillary sieving electrophoresis (CSE), in which naphthalene-2,3-dicarbaldehyde was employed as a fluorogenic labeling reagent. Standard proteins separated by CSE were reacted with naphthalene-2,3-dicarbaldehyde in the presence of 2-mercaptoethanol (2-ME) which

This study aims to compare the biological degradation performance of ethanethiol using strain RG-1 and B350 commercial mixed microorganisms, which were inoculated and immobilized on ceramic particles in twin-biotrickling filter columns. The parameters affecting the removal efficiency, such as empty

The translational and orientational potential energy surfaces (PESs) of n-alkanethiols with up to four carbon atoms are studied for (√(3)×√(3))R30° self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). The PESs indicate that methanethiol may form SAM structures that are not accessible for long-chain thiols. The
