Proteins and peptides voltammetry: Trends,potential, and limitations

Numerous biological processes are connected with the efficient electron transfer reactions in proteins and peptides. In this review, we discuss briefly the relevance and current challenges associated with the voltammetric analysis of peptides and proteins with and without a metal redox center. Special attention is paid to the integration of electrochemical methods with new nanomaterials which offers amplification of multiplexing capabilities for simultaneous and very sensitive examination of various proteins. After critically discussing the most interesting approaches in the proteins/peptides voltammetric analysis reported so far, for the single or multiplexed examination of such biomolecules with demonstrated applicability in the real-sample analysis, existing challenges still need to be addressed and future directions in this field will be pointed out.

A 16 moments model in relativistic extended thermodynamics of rarefied polyatomic gas

A model with 16 moments is here presented in the framework of RET of polyatomic gases. It furnishes as principal subsystem the relativistic counterpart of a work by Arima T., Ruggeri T., Sugiyama M.; this is present in literature and treats the non relativistic case which incorporates relaxation processes of molecular rotation and vibration. Another principal subsystem is the natural extension of the 14 moments model by Pennisi S. and Ruggeri T.; this is also present in literature in the relativistic framework but where the trace of the third balance equation is neglected. Its extension is found here for the case when this trace isn’t neglected.
