Summary The thin layer Chromatographic separation of uranium from metals of the ammonium sulfide group is described. The mobile phase is an acetoneisobutanol-hydrochloric acid-water mixture. After dissolving off the sorption layer, the uranium is washed out and determined spectrophotometrically with MDCM. The p_H- and time relationship of the uranium-MDCM complex were studied and the precision of the method is given.

Evaluation of gaseous hydrogen fluoride as a convenient reagent for parallel cleavage from the solid support

We have tested the limits of gaseous hydrogen fluoride as an agent for parallel detachment of organic molecules from the solid support. Peptides were chosen as relatively sensitive models for this reaction. Acid-catalyzed amide bond hydrolysis, side chain modification (tryptophan and other unnatural amino acids) by the protecting group residues as well as dehydration of serine and asparagine was followed. The technique of cleavage of side chain protection prior to the resin cleavage has given satisfactory results. Two-step deprotection and cleavage from benzhydrylamine resin by TFA and HF was compared to the deprotection and cleavage by TFA from Knorr resin.     

On Conditions for Transmission in the Sturm-Liouville Problem on a Network

Different approaches to transmission problems on graphs are studied on the basis of their reduction to problems for a single equation on the graph. Methods for solving them are presented. __________ Translated from Sovremennaya Matematika i Ee Prilozheniya (Contemporary Mathematics and Its Applications), Vol. 12, Partial Differential Equations, 2004.     

Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide and N5,N10‐Methenyltetrahydrofolate are the in planta Cofactors of Arabidopsis thaliana Cryptochrome 3

Members of the cryptochrome/photolyase family (CPF) of proteins utilize noncovalently bound light‐absorbing cofactors for their biological function. Usually, the identity of these cofactors is determined after expression in heterologous systems leaving the question unanswered whether these cofactors are identical to the indigenous ones. Here, cryptochrome 3 from Arabidopsis thaliana was expressed as a fusion with the green fluorescent protein in Arabidopsis plants. Besides the confirmation of the earlier report of its localization in chloroplasts, our data indicate that fractions of the fusion protein are present in the stroma and associated with thylakoids, respectively. Furthermore, it is shown that the fusion protein expressed in planta contains the same cofactors as the His₆‐tagged protein expressed in Escherichia coli, that is, flavin adenine dinucleotide and N⁵,N¹⁰‐methenyltetrahydrofolate. This demonstrates that the heterologously expressed cryptochrome 3, characterized in a number of previous studies, is a valid surrogate of the corresponding protein expressed in plants. To our knowledge, this is also a first conclusive analysis of cofactors bound to an Arabidopsis protein belonging to the CPF and purified from plant tissue.     

Toric partial density functions and stability of toric varieties

Let $(L, h)\rightarrow (X, \omega )$ denote a polarized toric Kähler manifold. Fix a toric submanifold $Y$ and denote by $\hat{\rho }_{tk}:X\rightarrow \mathbb {R}$ the partial density function corresponding to the partial Bergman kernel projecting smooth sections of $L^k$ onto holomorphic sections of $L^k$ that vanish to order at least $tk$ along $Y$ , for fixed $t>0$ such that $tk\in \mathbb {N}$ . We prove the existence of a distributional expansion of $\hat{\rho }_{tk}$ as $k\rightarrow \infty $ , including the identification of the coefficient of $k^{n-1}$ as a distribution on $X$ . This expansion is used to give a direct proof that if $\omega $ has constant scalar curvature, then $(X, L)$ must be slope semi-stable with respect to $Y$ (cf. Ross and Thomas in J Differ Geom 72(3): 429–466, 2006). Similar results are also obtained for more general partial density functions. These results have analogous applications to the study of toric K-stability of toric varieties.     

Steady Plane Flow of Viscoelastic Fluid Past an Obstacle

We consider the steady plane flow of certain classes of viscoelastic fluids in exterior domains with a non-zero velocity prescribed at infinity. We study existence as well as asymptotic behaviour of solutions near infinity and show that for sufficiently small data the solution decays near infinity as fast as the fundamental solution to the Oseen problem.

Trennung der Halogenide und Pseudohalogenide mittels Dünnschichtchromatographie

Zusammenfassung Eine dünnschichtchromatographische Trennung der Halogenide und Pseudohalogenide wird beschrieben. Als Trägersubstanz dient Kieselgel. Systematische Untersuchungen ergaben drei Fließmittel, die für die Auftrennung gut geeignet sind. Die Identifizierung wird teils bei Tageslicht, teils im UV vorgenommen. Eine Auftrennung und Identifizierung dieser Anionen beansprucht etwa 3 bis 4 Stunden.

Summary A thin layer chromatographic separation of the halides and pseudohalides is described. Silica gel is used as carrier substance. Systematic studies revealed three liquids that are well suited for the separation. The identification was conducted partly in daylight and partly in XJV. A separation and identification of these anions requires about 3 to 4 hours.
