Volume and adiabatic compressibility of optically active and inactive tartaric acids and tartrates

The differences of partial molal volume and adiabatic compressibility at infinite dilution of optically active diastereoisomers in water are reported. The L and meso tartaric acids and their potassium salts are examined. The results are interpreted in terms of specificity of H bonding between the solvent H₂O and the stereoisomers in the charged and uncharged forms. The results are of interest in relation to biochemical specificities and stereospecific behavior of optical enantiomers.     

A Study of the Probe Effect on the Apparent Image of Biological Atomic Force Microscopy

The atomic force microscopy (AFM) possesses high spatial resolution and it is compatible with liquid environments. AFM can provide possibility to study a wide range of biological problems at the molecular level and acquire topological information at nanometre resolution under physiological conditions1,2. However, a major problem for image reconstruction of biological specimens is that structures of most biological molecules are very soft and delicate, which could be easily deformed and dama…

Solubility of vinylidene fluoride polymers in supercritical CO2 and halogenated solvents

The cloud‐point behaviors of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and poly(vinylidene fluoride‐co‐22 mol % hexafluoropropylene) (VDF–HFP₂₂) are reported at temperatures up to 250 °C and pressures up to 3000 bar in supercritical CO₂, CHF₃, CH₂F₂, CHClF₂, CClF₃, CH₃CHF₂, CH₂FCF₃, CHF₂CF₃, and CH₃CClF₂. The molecular weight of PVDF has a smaller effect on the cloud point than the solvent quality. Cloud‐point pressures for both fluoropolymers decrease as the solvent polarizability, polar moment per molar volume, and density increases. However, it is extremely difficult to dissolve either fluoropolymer in CClF₃, which has a large polarizability and a small dipole moment. CO₂ is an effective solvent because it complexes with the C F dipole at low temperatures where energetic interactions fix the phase behavior. In addition, polymer architecture has a strong impact on the cloud‐point pressure. VDF–HFP₂₂ has lower cloud‐point pressures than PVDF in all solvents because it has a larger free volume that promotes facile interactions between the solvent and the polymer segments. Cloud‐point data are also reported for amorphous poly(tetrafluoroethylene‐co‐x mol % 2,2‐bistrifluoromethyl‐4,5‐difluoro‐1,3‐dioxole) (TFE–PDD_x ; x = 65 and 85) in CO₂. These data provide an interesting comparison to the PVDF–CO₂ and VDF–HFP₂₂–CO₂ systems because TFE–PDD₆₅ and TFE–PDD₈₇ have very high glass‐transition temperatures of 160 and 240 °C, respectively. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

The S.M.A.R.T. (small mass,affordable, rapid,transfer-less) digestion method for heavy metal determinations

The S.M.A.R.T. (small mass, affordable, rapid, transfer-less) digestion method was developed to determine heavy metal concentrations in small sample masses. The S.M.A.R.T. digestion method is a hot water bath digestion where sample digestion and dilution are performed in the original sample tube. This method is faster than the typical methods used and reduces potential sources of error. Masses as small as 0.01 g have been digested and analysed using this method. The preparation and digestion time is reduced from 10 h to less than 4 h. Acid volumes are reduced from millilitres to microlitres and the only disposable supplies needed are sample tubes and pipette tips. Method accuracy was determined by digesting seven replicates of two standard reference materials using the S.M.A.R.T. method and analysing samples by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The S.M.A.R.T. digestion method was found to provide excellent recoveries for Al (76 ± 2.7%), Mn (99 ± 11%), Co (92 ± 17%), Ni (93 ± 28%), Cu (109 ± 33%), Zn (97 ± 7.1%), As (108 ± 20%), Sr (90 ± 12%), Mo (84 ± 23%), Ag (91 ± 1.8%), Cd (95 ± 6.2%), Sn (139 ± 52%) and Pb (95 ± 22%). This study has successfully developed an efficient and reproducible digestion method for heavy metal determination in limited biomass samples.     

Indefinite integrals involving complete elliptic integrals of the third kind

A method developed recently for obtaining indefinite integrals of functions obeying inhomogeneous second-order linear differential equations has been applied to obtain integrals with respect to the modulus of the complete elliptic integral of the third kind. A formula is derived which gives an integral involving the complete integral of the third kind for every known integral for the complete elliptic integral of the second kind. The formula requires only differentiation and can therefore be applied for any such integral, and it is applied here to almost all such integrals given in the literature. Some additional integrals are derived using the recurrence relations for the complete elliptic integrals. This gives a total of 27 integrals for the complete integral of the third kind, including the single integral given in the literature. Some typographical errors in a previous related paper are corrected.     

On the enumeration of self-dual codes

We give the complete classification of all binary, self-dual, doubly-even (32, 16) codes. There are 85 non-equivalent, self-dual, doubly-even (32, 16) codes. Five of these have minimum weight 8, namely, a quadratic residue code and a Reed-Muller code, and three new codes. A set of generators is given for a code in each equivalence class together with its entire weight distribution and the order of its entire group with other information facilitating the computation of permutation generators. From this list it is possible to identify all self-dual codes of length less than 32 and the numbers of these are included.
