Stability of Prussian Blue films on ITO electrode. Effect of different anions
Elsevier (1993-02)Transformation of insoluble newly deposited Prussian Blue (PB) into the soluble structure stabilizes the film and allows its total oxidation to Prussian Yellow. The stability of PB films in electrochemical processes in ... -
Electrostatic Contributions to Protein Stability and Folding Energy
Federation of European Biochemical Societies (2007-05-15)The ability to predict the thermal stability of proteins based on their corresponding sequence is a problem of great fundamental and practical importance. Here we report an approach for calculating the electrostatic ... -
Singlet-triplet gaps in large multireference systems: spin-flip-driven alternatives for bioinorganic modelling
American Institute of Physics (2007-07)The proper description of low-spin states of open-shell systems, which are commonly encountered in the field of bioinorganic chemistry, rigorously requires using multireference ab initio methodologies. Such approaches are ... -
On the relationship between thermal stability and catalytic power of enzymes
ACS Publications (2007-12-25)The possible relationship between the thermal stability and the catalytic power of enzymes is of great current interest. In particular, it has been suggested that thermophilic or hyperthermophilic ... -
A DFT study of methanol dissociation on isolated vanadate groups
Elsevier (2008)Molecular and dissociative adsorption processes of methanol on isolated vanadate groups have been studied by means of density functional theory calculation at the B3LYP computing level. The catalyst is represented by an ... -
Maternal transfer of organochlorine compounds to oocytes in wild and farmed gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata)
Elsevier (2008)To investigate the transfer of lipophilic organochlorine compounds to the gonads in gilthead sea bream females, liver and oocytes from wild and farmed females, just before spawning, were analysed by gas chromatography ... -
Capabilities of microbore columns coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry in speciation of arsenic and selenium
Elsevier (2008)The performance of microHPLC-microconcentric nebulizer-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) coupling for the simultaneous determination of As(III), As(V), monomethylarsenic acid (MMA), dimethylarsinic acid ... -
Proton transport catalysis in intramolecular rearrangements: A density functional theory study
Elsevier (2008)Experimental observations show that for the gas phase isomerization of protonated molecules, a third body can transport a proton from a high-energy site to a lower energy-site of the substrate, thereby catalyzing the ... -
Anserine and carnosine determination in meat samples by pure micellar liquid chromatography
Elsevier (2008)Anserine and carnosine, which are both imidazole dipeptides, are natural antioxidants that are present in some types of meat. A pure micellar liquid chromatographic procedure was developed using a micellar mobile phase of ... -
A quantum mechanic/molecular mechanic study of the wild-type and N155S mutant HIV-1 integrase complexed with diketo acid
(2008)Integrase (IN) is one of the three human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) enzymes essential for effective viral replication. Recently, mutation studies have been reported that have shown that a certain degree of viral ... -
Biomagnification of organochlorine pollutants in farmed and wild gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) and stable isotope characterization of the trophic chains
Elsevier (2008)Organochlorine pollutants (pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls) were analysed in farmed and wild gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) tissues (white muscle and liver) from the Western Mediterranean (Spain) and in their ... -
Rapid non-target screening of organic pollutants in water by ultraperformance liquid chromatography coupled to time-of-light mass spectrometry
Elsevier (2008)We show the potential of ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) coupled to time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOF-MS) for screening of non-target organic pollutants in water samples. The great accuracy and the ... -
