Curing kinetics of commercial polycarbosilane have been measured using differential scanning calorimetry in air between 140 and 220 degrees C. It was found that the total heat of curing increases linearly with temperature. At constant temperature, the rate ...
Following several tragic chemical accidents that have occurred in recent years, some directives concerning chemical process safety have been issued. The Seveso directive, for example, requires a precise description of the consequences of a possible chemica ...
A unique bench-scale heat flux calorimeter is described, which is capable of detecting the low heat signal of an animal cell culture (a max. of 200 mW/l is produced with a batch culture of SF9 insect cells). After the tech. modifications that enhanced the ...
Spores of Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6051 and Bacillus stearothermophilus NCTC 10003 were immobilized in monodisperse alginate beads (diameter, 550 microm +/- 5%), and the capacity of the immobilized bioindicators to provide accurate and reliable F-values for ...
Using the fluorescent dye uranin, tracer release experiments to study the contribution of bottom boundary mixing to diapycnal transport in stratified natural waters were performed in Lake Alpnach (central Switzerland) during 1992-1995. A first experiment i ...
Measurements of the heat produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae CBS 426 were used in conjunction with elemental and enthalpic balances to control fed-batch fermns. A proportional control using the ratio of carbon dioxide evolution rate to heat prodn. resulte ...

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 ...
The use of the heat-flux calorimeter BSC-81 as a chemostat is described. The technique was applied to study the heat generation rate by continuous cultures of the yeast Kluyveromyces fragilis NRRL 1109 as a function of specific growth rate. The maintenance ...
The heat generated by both batch and continuous cultures of the yeast Kluyveromycs fragilis was studied using a modified bench scale calorimeter. Batch cultures were used to measure the heat dissipation rates and the heat yields during fully aerobic and co ...
