Levels of key enzymes and physiological factors involved in product formation in batch and continuous cultures of Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824
(1989)
A number of physiological factors and their relation to the solventogenesis mechanism were investigated in both batch and continuous cultures of Clostridium acetobutylicum. The initiation of butanol formation in batch ...
Thiolase, phosphotransbutyrylase, and coenzyme-A transferase and their role in product formation in {\it Clostridium acetobutylicum\/} ATCC 824
(1989)
Three key enzymes of the Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824 metabolism, namely thiolase, phosphotransbutyrylase (PTB), and CoA transferase, were purified to homogeneity. Each of these enzymes catalyzes the first reaction ...
Interfacial properties of fluid phases in two dimensions and of three-component surfactant systems
(1989)
In this thesis, we study two fundamental problems in the theory and experiment of interfaces in simple and complex fluids.
The first problem concerns the critical behavior of the thickness of interface of simple fluids in ...
Polymer formation, deactivation, and ethylene selectivity decline in palladium/aluminum oxide catalyzed selective acetylene hydrogenation
(1989)
The removal of acetylene by selective hydrogenation is a critical step in the purification of ethylene streams for industrial polyethylene production. Hydrogenation of 0.35-1.0% acetylene in ethylene over Pd/Al$\sb2$O$\sb3$ ...
