-occurring proteasome inhibitors (quercetin, δ-tocotrienol, and riboflavin) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 cells, and thioglycolate-elicited peritoneal macrophages from C57BL/6 mice. In a continuous effort to find more potent, non...
Conformational and Structural Investigation of Substituted Hydrocarbons and Ring Compounds by Vibrational and Microwave Spectroscopy
(2016)
The physiochemical properties of a molecule of interest are usually obtained from
its molecular structure, and it involves the orientation of one part of the molecule about a
particular bond with respect to the rest ...
The kinetics of non-catalyzed supercritical water reforming of ethanol
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Agriculturally produced ethanol, a renewable resource, may be reformed noncatalytically into hydrogen by a novel process utilizing supercritical water, which acts synergistically both as a solvent and as a reactant. By utilizing supercritical water...
Molecular characterization of genetic resistance to soybean cyst nematode in soybean line SS97-6946
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
. Seeds from 160 F2:3 families were evaluated against races 1, 2, 3 and 5 for SCN bioassay following standard protocol. The ratio observed between resistant to susceptible F2:3 families revealed that SCN resistance involved three recessive genes for both...
Structure and Mechanical Properties of Cement and Intermetallic Compounds via ab-initio Simulations
