The rate of formation of high-curvature intermediates or disordered cubic phases in N-methyldioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine (N-methyl-DOPE) dispersions with or without additives was studied by 31P NMR spectroscopy. In N-methyl-DOPE dispersions, both the L alpha liquid-crystalline phase and the hexagonal HII phase convert

Discriminating among individuals and rejecting non-group members is essential for the evolution and stability of animal societies. Ants are good models for studying recognition mechanisms, because they are typically very efficient in discriminating 'friends' (nest-mates) from 'foes' (non-nest-mates). Recognition in

All six insecticide active ingredients in pyrethrum extract were quantified by supercritical fluid chromatography and carbon calibration. Allethrin is a suitable reference compound for carbon calibration and pyrethrins calibrations. Carbon quantification in SFC is also applied to pyrethroids (phenothrin, permethrin

The biotransformation activities of two hydrocarbonoclastic marine bacteria, Corynebacterium sp. and Sphingomonas sp. 2MPII, on n-eicosane and phenanthrene were investigated. During a 56-day experiment, in pure and mixed cultures, Corynebacterium sp. and Sphingomonas sp. 2MPII removed about 70% of the

Existing encapsulated organic phase change materials (PCM) usually contain a shell material that possesses a poor heat storage capacity and so results in a lowered latent heat storage density of the encapsulated PCM compared to unencapsulated PCM. Here, we demonstrate
