The Australian Synchrotron Research Program (ASRP) and the Australian Synchrotron (AS) held their first joint Users Workshop over three days in December 2005. The ASRP has been providing access for Australian users to the APS, NSRRC and the Photon Factory since 1996; the AS is under construction in Melbourne and at press time was scheduled to open in early 2007. The joint user workshop is one of an increasing number of collaborative projects between the two programs as they move forward towards an eventual combined Australian user program. 相似文献
Cumin oil samples (Cuminum cyminum L.) from four different geographical origins were analyzed using GC-MS and GC-FID for their qualitative and quantitative composition. The major compounds in all cumin oils were the monoterpenes beta-pinene, p-cymene and gamma-terpinene and the terpenoid aldehydes cuminic aldehyde and the isomeric menthadien carboxaldehydes. All essential oils, and cuminic aldehyde, were tested, using agar diffusion and serial dilution methods, against different Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria isolated from different sources of food (pork fillet, minced meat and sausages) and clinical isolates, as well as three different Candida albicans isolates. All cumin oils and cuminic aldehyde exhibited a considerable inhibitory effect against all the organisms tested, except Pseudomonas spp. 相似文献
The chemical compositions of selected essential oils from North Africa, especially Morocco, of geranium, wild Moroccan chamomile and rosemary as well as absolutes of rose and geranium were determined using GC/FID and GC/MS. These oils and absolutes were tested concerning their antimicrobial activity against some food spoilage strains obtained from fresh milk and minced meat products, like sausages and pork fillet, in accordance with ISO testing procedures. Gram-positive (Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli, Salmonella abony and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) strains were used, as well as the yeast Candida albicans. Using a serial broth dilution method, all samples demonstrated weak antimicrobial activity against the Gram-negative bacteria and the yeast, compared with the activity towards the Gram-positive bacteria. 相似文献
By using a dual‐ligand approach, two new homochiral zinc(II) coordination polymers, Zn2(phen)2(H2O)2(cam)2 · ethanol ( 1 ) and Zn(bipy)(cam) ( 2 ) [phen = 1,10‐phenanthroline, bipy = 2,2′‐bipyridine, H2cam = (1R,3S)‐(+)‐camphoric acid] have been synthesized under solvothermal conditions. Compound 1 has a zigzag chain‐like structure and compound 2 has a linear chain‐like structure. The two compounds exhibit intense photoluminescence upon photoexcitation at 280 and 290 nm, respectively. 相似文献
In this article, the problem of constructing efficient discrimination designs in a Fourier regression model is considered.
We propose designs which maximize the power of the F-test, which discriminates between the two highest order models, subject to the constraints that the tests that discriminate
between lower order models have at least some given relative power. A complete solution is presented in terms of the canonical
moments of the optimal designs, and for the special case of equal constraints even more specific formulae are available. 相似文献
Proof‐of‐principle is reported for a directed functionalization and derivatization of chalcogenidometallate cages with respect to the formation of hybrid compounds containing (M)/T/E semi‐conductor nodes (M=Cu; T=Ge, Sn; E=S). In their Full Paper on page 6595 ff. , S. Dehnen et al. show how it is possible to generate functionalized ternary CuSnS or CuGeS clusters and to transfer COMe ligands into CR(N–NH2) or CR(N–NHPh) terminal groups by reaction of a series of novel, functionalized thiometallate cages [(RT)nSm] (n/m=4/6, 3/4), the R ligands of which are terminated by COO(H) or COMe.
A powder of the composition 40 mol‐% Er2O3 and 60 mol‐% ZrO2 has been prepared. The anion deficient fluorite related compound Zr3Er4O12 [R\bar{3} : a = 971.79(7) pm and c = 907.976(0) pm] was produced. This precursor was treated with gaseous ammonia at temperatures between 25 and 1200 °C. The reaction was followed in situ by X‐ray diffraction in a high temperature reaction chamber under a constant flow of ammonia. The nitridation of Zr3Er4O12 led to a nitride oxide of the solid‐solution‐type with an apparent composition Zr0.43Er0.57O1.07N0.43 The compound crystallizes isostructural to bixbyite due to vacancy ordering [Ia\bar{3} : a = 1036.37(4) pm]. The reoxidation of the nitride oxide was monitored in DTA/TG experiments exhibiting an almost complete reoxidation to the starting composition except for some inclusions of dinitrogen. 相似文献
