Elucidating solvent contributions to solution reactions with ab initio QM/MM methods.
(J Phys Chem B, 2010-03-04)Computer simulations of reaction processes in solution in general rely on the definition of a reaction coordinate and the determination of the thermodynamic changes of the system along the reaction coordinate. The reaction ... -
Inhalant use among incarcerated adolescents in the United States: prevalence, characteristics, and correlates of use.
(Drug and alcohol dependence, 2008-03)OBJECTIVE: To characterize patterns and correlates of inhalant use among incarcerated youth. METHOD: Residents (N=723) of 27 Missouri Division of Youth Services facilities completed interviews assessing substance use, psychiatric ... -
Short-lived alpha-helical intermediates in the folding of beta-sheet proteins.
(Biochemistry, 2010-07-06)Several lines of evidence point strongly toward the importance of highly alpha-helical intermediates in the folding of all globular proteins, regardless of their native structure. However, experimental refolding studies ... -
Stereocomplexed poly(lactic acid)-poly(ethylene glycol) nanoparticles with dual-emissive boron dyes for tumor accumulation.
(ACS Nano, 2010-09-28)Responsive biomaterials play important roles in imaging, diagnostics, and therapeutics. Polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) containing hydrophobic and hydrophilic segments are one class of biomaterial utilized for these purposes. ... -
The effect of hydrogen bonding on the diffusion of water in n-alkanes and n-alcohols measured with a novel single microdroplet method.
(J Chem Phys, 2010-01-28)While the Stokes-Einstein (SE) equation predicts that the diffusion coefficient of a solute will be inversely proportional to the viscosity of the solvent, this relation is commonly known to fail for solutes, which are the ...
