Chlorite dismutase-like proteins are structurally closely related to functional chlorite dismutases which are heme b-dependent oxidoreductases capable of reducing chlorite to chloride with simultaneous production of dioxygen. Chlorite dismutase-like proteins are incapable of performing this reaction and their biological role

This article introduces the concept of chiral ion mobility spectrometry (CIMS) and presents examples demonstrating the gas-phase separation of enantiomers of a wide range of racemates including pharmaceuticals, amino acids, and carbohydrates. CIMS is similar to traditional ion mobility spectrometry

A new solid acid, based on tantalum hydroxide, was used to catalyze saccharide dehydration into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) with high catalytic activity and excellent stability in a water-2-butanol biphasic system. Furthermore, good results were also obtained from Jerusalem artichoke juice with

In this article, we investigate vapor-liquid-liquid equilibria (VLLE) of binary systems using a simple volumetric method. Being different from the usual cloud-point method for the determination of liquid-liquid separation boundaries, the present volumetric method is able to determine the direct

The effect of temperature and concentration on the structure of sec-butyl alcohol and isobutyl alcohol/water binary mixtures in the alcohol-rich region (mole fraction of water X(H2O) < 0.3) has been studied using Fourier transform (FT) near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy. The experimental
