The oscillatory patterns recapitulate those attributed previously to alternation of ortho-para nuclear spin pairs of water hydrogens. The resultant light emissions are consistent with the hypothesis that water luminescence is the result of the discharge of energy during the transition between the highest and the lowest energy states attained during the periodic ortho-para nuclear spin pair interconversions. The period length of 18.8 min agrees with the previously found oscillatory period of about 18 min based on FTIR spectroscopic measurements of ortho to para nuclear spin pair alternations also given by changes in redox potential sufficient to drive NADH oxidation.","PeriodicalId":94103,"journal":{"name":"Journal of physical chemistry & biophysics","volume":"25 1","pages":"1-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81696627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experiment was performed to generate electricity from locally available cow dung as substrate using the fabricated MFC. The device was operated at anaerobic condition at varying time duration of 6 days, PVC pipe was used to make a salt bridge using agarose. The experimental readings were recorded at an interval of 1 hour. The performance was evaluated by characterizing the generated voltage, current, power and power surface density. It was observed that despite of high impedance of the substrate, all the general parameters have shown maximum values at day 5 and then a decline in trend was observed on 6 days onwards. The corresponding maximum values of the generated parameters are 0.825 V, 0.0113 μA, 0.009223 μW and 0.000000947 mW/m2. The obtained graphs of voltage, current, power and power density were also found to have similar pattern. Thus, this study has demonstrated such that the fabricated MFC can be used for electrical energy generation from cow dung and other biowaste.","PeriodicalId":94103,"journal":{"name":"Journal of physical chemistry & biophysics","volume":"17 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82178764","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its derivation by statistical mechanics following Boltzmann and Gibbs with the famous formula S=kBlnW for a micro-canonical ensemble with N particles, kB the Boltzmann constant, and W the number of accessible micro-states is however in general not extensive unless the Stirling approximation given by lnN! – NlnN + N is used. Furthermore, at the thermodynamic limit with the number of particles N→∞ at constant density the Stirling approximation can not be used to show extensivity because limN→∞ (lnN! – NlnN + N)=∞. Hence, the Boltzmann entropy S as shown here for the ideal gas is neither for a small system with N particles nor at the thermodynamic limit extensive. Thus, if strict extensivity for the entropy is requested the claim of statistical mechanics that the Boltzmann entropy is a microscopic description of its thermodynamic analog is challenged.","PeriodicalId":94103,"journal":{"name":"Journal of physical chemistry & biophysics","volume":"448 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77418625","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among all the IR absorption bands of proteins/peptides, the amide I band arises mainly from the stretching vibration of the carbonyls (C=O) in backbone amide bonds and is sensitive to the conformations (such as α– helix, β–sheet, unstructured conformation, and so on) in a protein/peptide. Therefore, the amide I band has been used to monitor the biophysical/biochemical behavior of proteins/peptides in biological samples (e.g., living cells or tissues). However, obtaining reproducible IR spectra of proteins/peptides in H2O solution was challenging by direct transmission measurement using a liquid cell with milli-meter level path length, due to the intensive IR absorption of H2O around 1620 cm-1 which overlaps the amide I band. Thus, lots of the IR spectra of proteins/peptides were accomplished in D2O, which has IR absorption around 1200 cm-1. Since D2O may not be a favorable solvent for biological samples, the position of the amide I band of various conformations was needed as a reference for biological samples. Consequently, various surface FTIR techniques (such as Infrared Reflection-Absorption Spectroscopy or IRRAS, and Attenuated Total Reflection or ATR) have been developed to obtain the IR spectra of proteins/peptides in H2O environment and have been reviewed here.","PeriodicalId":94103,"journal":{"name":"Journal of physical chemistry & biophysics","volume":"225 1","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83666291","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For example, you can attain the sequence and properties, and in most cases the structure, of any protein in less than a minute. Moreover, physical and chemical details of atoms and molecules such as energy levels, transitions, thermodynamics, various kinds of electronic, vibrational, and magnetic resonance spectra, are easily available from multiple databases, such as the 69 Standard Reference Databases offered by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. On the other hand, it’s not easy to keep pace with the fiercely mounting scientific and technology information. Reaxys reports properties of ~ 2.2 million inorganic and organometallic compounds, PubChem offers around 160 million chemical compounds, 60 million chemical structures, and 1 million biological assays [1]. Along with over 100 million DNA and protein sequences involving ~ 260,000 species that are available through the National Center for Biotechnology Information, over 115,000 macromolecular structures deposited in the Protein Data Bank, the amount of information simply becomes incomprehensible.
