Chlorite dismutase-like proteins are structurally closely related to functional chlorite dismutases which are heme b-dependent oxidoreductases capable of reducing chlorite to chloride with simultaneous production of dioxygen. Chlorite dismutase-like proteins are incapable of performing this reaction and their biological role
We demonstrate for the first time that low-energy spin-polarized secondary electrons, produced by irradiation of a magnetic substrate, can induce chiral-selective chemistry. Our approach was to perform detailed measurements of the reaction rate for x-ray induced, secondary electron photolysis of

In this article, we investigate vapor-liquid-liquid equilibria (VLLE) of binary systems using a simple volumetric method. Being different from the usual cloud-point method for the determination of liquid-liquid separation boundaries, the present volumetric method is able to determine the direct

A new solid acid, based on tantalum hydroxide, was used to catalyze saccharide dehydration into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) with high catalytic activity and excellent stability in a water-2-butanol biphasic system. Furthermore, good results were also obtained from Jerusalem artichoke juice with
A breath-based adherence system to document ingestion of oral medications (e.g., HAART) was investigated. Specifically, the food additive 2-butanol, which can be easily packaged with a drug, is converted via alcohol dehydrogenase to the volatile metabolite 2-butanone that rapidly appears
