A Se complex, Ph P, and (C Me ) are formed in the reduction of Se=PPh by the Nd complex [(C Me ) Nd] [Eq. (a)]. The latter is thus reminiscent of [(C Me ) Sm], which, however, appears to be a stronger reductant than [(C Me ) Nd]. This suggests that the reductive reactivity of [(C Me ) Ln] complexes can be tuned by varying the size of the metal atom.

This study describes the applicability of the fluorescence polarization assay (FPA) based on the use of FITC-labeled oligosaccharide tracers of defined structure for the measurement of active lysozyme in hen egg white. Depending on the oligosaccharide chain length of the tracer, this method detects both the formation of the enzyme-to-tracer complex (because of lectin-like, i.e.

Inheritance of Imaging Parameters of Arrhythmic Risk in Mitral Valve Prolapse: A Pedigree Study.

Circ Cardiovasc Imaging

Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco (L.C., S.D., D.B., J.J.T., Q.F., L.T., A.H.R., R.J., S.H., H.H.H., Z.H.T., N.B.S., F.N.D.).

Background: A subset of patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP), a highly heritable condition, experience sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) or sudden cardiac death (SCD). However, the inheritance of phenotypic imaging features of arrhythmic MVP remains unknown.

Methods: We recruited 23 MVP probands, including 9 with SCA/SCD and 14 with frequent/complex ventricular ectopy.

A tale of two planets: Disparate evolutionary models for Mars inferred from radiogenic isotope compositions of Martian meteorites.

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A

Cosmochemistry and Isotope Signatures Group Nuclear and Chemical Sciences Division Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Livermore, CA 94550.

The radiogenic isotopic compositions of basaltic Martian meteorites (shergottites) and clinopyroxene/olivine cumulate meteorites (nakhlite/chassignites) are used to define the global evolution of Mars. However, the two main groups of meteorites demonstrate that their sources underwent divergent styles of magmatic evolution. The shergottites portray a planet that differentiated ~4.

Cyclic Voltarefractometry of Single TiO Nanoparticles in Large Ensembles in Nonaqueous Electrolyte.

Anal Chem

January 2025

Nanobiotechnology Department of the Institute of Biotechnology, Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus-Senftenberg, Universitaetsplatz 1, Senftenberg 01968, Brandenburg, Germany.

Single nanoparticle (NP) cyclic voltarefractometry (CVR), realized as wide-field surface plasmon resonance microscopy (SPRM) in combination with potential cycling, has been proposed and applied to the in situ study of TiO NPs. Electrochemical activity of TiO is mainly observed outside the electrochemical stability window of water. Therefore, the response of individual anatase (a-TiO) and rutile (r-TiO) NPs adsorbed on a gold layer was studied in 0.

Lanthanides (Ln) are typically found in the +3 oxidation state. However, in recent decades, their chemistry has been expanded to include the less stable +2 oxidation state across the entire series except promethium (Pm), facilitated by the coordination of ligands such as trimethylsilylcyclopentadienyl, CHSiMe (Cp'). The complexes have been the workhorse for the synthesis and theoretical study of the fundamental aspects of divalent lanthanide chemistry, where experimental and computational evidence have suggested the existence of different ground state (GS) configurations, 4f or 4f 5d, depending on the specific metal.
