IMD—software for modeling the optical properties of multilayer films

TL;DR: IMD includes a full graphical user interface and affords modeling with up to eight simultaneous independent variables, as well as parameter estimation using nonlinear, least-squares curve fitting to user-supplied experimental optical data.

Force and velocity measured for single kinesin molecules

TL;DR: Comparison of force-velocity curves at limiting and saturating ATP concentrations suggests that the load-dependent diminution in kinesin velocity may be due to a decrease in the net displacement per molecule of ATP hydrolyzed, not simply to a slowing of the ATP turnover rate; kinesIn would therefore appear to be a loosely coupled motor.

Protein hydration in solution: Experimental observation by x-ray and neutron scattering

TL;DR: The results point to the existence of a first hydration shell with an average density approximately 10% larger than that of the bulk solvent in the conditions studied, which suggests that this may be a general property of aqueous interfaces.

Evaluation of a Tetrazolium-based Semiautomated Colorimetric Assay: Assessment of Radiosensitivity

TL;DR: While optimal conditions for each cell line (cell number plated and doubling time) must be established, the 3-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenylformazan bromide assay could be automated and thus be of great value in screening large numbers of potential radiosensitizers or protectors.

Pyritization of trace metals in anoxic marine sediments

TL;DR: In this paper, the pyritization of reactive trace elements in different anoxic marine sediments was investigated to determine the importance of factors such as reactive-Fe, pyrite content and salinity in controlling this process.
