TL;DR: In this article, a reaction model is proposed which, from the standpoint of reactor design, can give an adequate explanation of the whole course of an emulsion polymerization of monomer highly insoluble in water.

TL;DR: Comparison of the amino acid sequence of leucine dehydrogenase with those of other pyridine nucleotide dependent oxidoreductases registered in a protein data bank revealed significant sequence similarity, particularly betweenLeucine and glutamate dehydrogenases, in the regions containing the coenzyme binding domain and certain specific residues with catalytic importance.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of stirring on the course of emulsion polymerization of styrene was investigated and the authors established the existence of an optimum range of stirring speed and three important factors which must be considered in carrying out polymerization.

TL;DR: The NAD(+)-dependent 3-hydroxyisobutyrate dehydrogenase [EC 1.1.31] was purified to homogeneity from Pseudomonas putida E23 and the N-terminal 26 amino acid sequence was compared with the sequences deduced from the enzyme genes of rat liver and PseUDomonas aeruginosa.

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of the polymer particles produced in the emulsion polymerization of vinyl acetate was studied on the basis of a previous theory, and the low value of the average number of radicals per particle obtained in this work, i.e. in the range 0.01 - 0.5, is explained by introducing a mechanism of a rapid escape of monomeric radicals produced by the chain-transfer reaction which occurs dominantly in the polymer particle.
