Recently Blake et al.153) made such studies in the case of human (HL) and tortoise egg-white (TEWL) lysozyme based on crystallographic refinements at 1,5 and 1,6 A resolution, respectively. By these investigations they attempted to obtain information on the perturbations of water structure in the hydration shell by neighboured protein molecules and by high salt concentrations as well as on the degree of order of the bound water. The authors came to the conclusion that the number of ordered water molecules are 128 in TEWL and 140 in HL, whereas the overall content is made up of 650 and 350 water molecules per lysozyme molecule. 

There is a number of theoretical and experimental relations determining the dependence of the dynamic contact angle on flow velocity (Dussan 1979 Ngan and Dussan 1982 Cox 1986 Blake 1994 Kistler 1993). Hoffman (1975) expressed the dynamic contact angle as a function solely of dimensionless parameters capillary number Ca... 

Particularly high stress occurs when bubbles burst on the surface of the liquid, whereby droplets are eruptive torn out of the surface [32-36]. According to theoretical calculations, maximum energy densities occur in the region of the boundary surface shortly before the droplets separate [36]. The results calculated by Boulton-Stone and Blake [34] show that these are exponentially dependent on bubble diameter dg. Whereas these authors found values of e = lO mVs with dg = 0.5 mm, these are only e 1 m /s with dg = 5 mm. The situation may be different regarding the droplet volume separated from the surface by the gas throughput and thus the number of particles which are exposed to high stress. The maximum for this value occurs with a bubble diameter of dg = 4 mm (see [34]), and it is therefore feasible that there could be an optimal bubble size. 

Amyloid fibrils form from a variety of native proteins with diverse sequences and folds. The classic method for the structural analysis of amyloid has been X-ray fiber diffraction amyloid fibrils exhibit a characteristic diffraction signature, called the cross-/) pattern. This cross-/ pattern suggested a repeating structure in which /1-sheets run parallel to the fiber axis with their constituent /1-strands perpendicular to that direction (Sunde and Blake, 1997). This diffraction signature pointed to an underlying common core molecular structure for the amyloid fibril that could accommodate diverse sequences and folds. A number of groups have proposed amyloid folds that are consistent with the experimental data and these can be linked to repeating /1-structured units. 

Blake et al. [17], Table 7.2. Aqueous solubility decreases with increase in the number of carbon atoms and with a decrease in concentration in the organic phase. This observation is general and has been found to apply in other cases, for example, for Cg-Cg carboxylic acids, for which the solubility is almost a linear function of the carboxylic acid concentration in the organic phase [25]. (see also Chapter 2). 

Karcher et al. (1996) suggest that this additional oxidation occurs on the soot particles that have been observed in the stratosphere and attributed to aircraft emissions (Pueschel et al., 1992a Blake and Kato, 1995). The oxidation of S02 on soot particles is known to occur in the troposphere as well (see Chapter 8.C.4). If the same is true of the exhaust from HSCTs, their emissions could lead to significant increases in both the number of particles in the lower stratosphere and as their associated surface area. 

In Equation 6.17, P is flie pressure at any point in the cake shown schematically in Figure 6.11, s, the specific surface (surface area per unit volume of particle), p, the hquid viscosity, vs, the superficial liquid velocity, and 8, the porosity of the cake. The Kozeny-Carmen equation is derived in a number of texts. See, for example. Bird et al. [26], who have called the equation the Blake-Kozeny equation.

Simulation of water adjacent to surfaces is a developing area. So far, a number of publications have appeared, usually differing with respect to the models of the molecules and their interactions, the size of the cell considered, the properties of the surface, treatment of the statistics, etc. A review up to 1991 has been given by Saint-Martin and Ortega-Blake. Obviously the results obtained depend on the specific assumptions made, but a number of features recur, so that they may be considered generic. They include,...

The observed mircrostructures and rheological behavior are consistent with the suggestion by Durham, Goetze, and Blake (1977) that the dislocations glide essentially unhindered by other dislocations and that deformation is limited by the number of active dislocation sources.
