Activation parameters for thiolate-disulfide interchange reactions in aqueous solution

TL;DR: In this paper, the activation parameters for thiolate-disulfide interchange reactions in water were measured and two disulfides were examined (Ellman's reagent and oxidized glutathione) and three thiols (2-mercaptoethanol, 1,3dithio-propan-2-ol, and 1,4-dithiothreitol).
Journal ArticleDOI

Palladium as a substrate for self-assembled monolayers used in biotechnology.

TL;DR: Self-assembled monolayers on palladium that resist the nonspecific adsorption of proteins and the adhesion of mammalian cells are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermodynamic parameters for the association of fluorinated benzenesulfonamides with bovine carbonic anhydrase II.

TL;DR: Calorimetry revealed that all of the ligands studied bind in a 1:1 stoichiometry with BCA; this result was confirmed by 19F NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography (for complexes with human carbonic anhydrase II).
Journal ArticleDOI

The Binding of Benzoarylsulfonamide Ligands to Human Carbonic Anhydrase is Insensitive to Formal Fluorination of the Ligand

TL;DR: Pairs of benzo- and perfluorobenzoarylsulfonamide ligands bind to human carbonic anhydrase with a conserved binding geometry, an enthalpy-driven binding, and indistinguishable binding affinities, which support the pervasive theory that the lock-and-key model disregards an important component of binding.
Journal ArticleDOI

ac electric fields drive steady flows in flames.

TL;DR: It is shown that time-oscillating electric fields applied to plasmas present in flames create steady flows of gas and how δ decreases as the frequency of the applied field increases is revealed.
