Isothermal reaction calorimetry was employed on the bench scale to measure the enthalpy efficiency and O2 efficiency of growth of several microbial strains cultured on a range of substrates with varying degrees of redn. The obsd. values of these energetic ...
A novel heat-flux calorimeter was used to study the aerobic batch growth of the facultative yeast K. fragilis on glucose [50-99-7], galactose [59-23-4], lactose [63-42-3], and deproteinized whey permeate. The calorimetric data enabled optimization of the d ...
Transformations of the quasi-crystalline icosahedral phases formed in the melt-spun AlMn(Si) alloys Al90Mn10, Al86Mn14 and Al75Mn20Si5 have been studied at high temperatures (300-1000 K) by combined measurements of resistivity, differential scanning calori ...
Heat produced by hybridoma suspension cultures was continuously monitored in a 2-L heat-flux calorimeter. Heat measurements reflected changes in the metabolic state of the culture under different aeration conditions. A highly anaerobic metab. was indicated ...
A novel heat-flux calorimeter was used to study the growth of Kluyveromyces fragilis on a variety of C substrates. Heat liberated was directly related to biomass formed and also to O2 consumed. Heat yield coeffs. derived from these relationships allowed th ...
The authors present detailed studies of electronic properties of Al-Si alloys prepared in a nonequilibrium state by means of rapid solidification. The quenched alloys exhibit an enhanced superconducting transition temperature up to 6.2 K in an Al-Si 30 at. ...
A novel bench-scale calorimeter, which is based on a heat-flux principle and modified to accommodate biol. reactions, was evaluated for detg. the heat evolution rate of an aerobic culture of the yeast Kluyveromyces fragilis grown on lactose. The instantane ...
(CH3)4NHgBrI2 exhibits at room temperature a polar columnar structure based on edge-sharing anion tetrahedra with a double anion occupancy. Its orthorhombic space group is Pb2//1m. An unusual multiple phase transition sequence revealed by differential scan ...
In ice-covered lakes, penetrative radiation warms fluid beneath a diffusive boundary layer, thereby increasing its density and providing energy for convection in a diurnally active, deepening mixed layer. Shallow regions are differentially heated to warmer ...
