Other Nuclei. Although most nmr experiments continue to involve H, or both, many other nuclei may also be utilized Several factors, including the value of I for the nucleus, the magnitude of the quadmpolar moment, the natural abundance and magnetogyric ratio of the isotope, or the possibihty of preparing enriched samples, need to be considered. The product of the isotopic parameters can be compared to the corresponding value for providing a measure of relative sensitivity or receptivity. Table 1 summarizes these factors for a number of isotopes. More complete information may... 

A fundamental parameter characterizing the usefulness of a given precolumn for enrichment purposes is the breakthrough volume, Vg. This volume can be determined by monitoring continuously or discretely the detector signal at the outlet of the precolumn (35-37). The breakthrough volume can be defined by the following expression (37) ... 

Here we present only one effect in detail which also is expected to occur in metallic alloys the enrichment of vacancies in the interfacial region (Fig. 4). For the chosen parameters, the density reduction 5p in the center of the interface even is a few percent in the fully segregated limit. However, 5p 0 as T Tc. 

In highly diluted solutions the surfactants are monodispersed and are enriched by hydrophil-hydrophobe-oriented adsorption at the surface. If a certain concentration which is characteristic for each surfactant is exceeded, the surfactant molecules congregate to micelles. The inside of a micelle consists of hydrophobic groups whereas its surface consists of hydrophilic groups. Micelles are dynamic entities that are in equilibrium with their surrounded concentration. If the solution is diluted and remains under the characteristic concentration, micelles dissociate to single molecules. The concentration at which micelle formation starts is called critical micelle concentration (cmc). Its value is characteristic for each surfactant and depends on several parameters [189-191] ... 

Despite the difficulties, there have been many efforts in recent years to evaluate trace metal concentrations in natural systems and to compare trace metal release and transport rates from natural and anthropogenic sources. There is no single parameter that can summarize such comparisons. Frequently, a comparison is made between the composition of atmospheric particles and that of average crustal material to indicate whether certain elements are enriched in the atmospheric particulates. If so, some explanation is sought for the enrichment. Usually, the contribution of seaspray to the enrichment is estimated, and any enrichment unaccounted for is attributed to other natural inputs (volcanoes, low-temperature volatilization processes, etc.) or anthropogenic sources. 

Tieszen 1991). Water stress, for instance, lowers photo synthetic discrimination against C, resulting in isotopic enrichment. C4 plants are not affected isotopically by environmental parameters although their distributions are (Ehleringer et al. 1997). Under conditions of increasing aridity, the climate variable of most likely importance in African sites, C3 plants should become slightly more enriched on average. Therefore one should be cautious about use... 

They indicated that the softness parameter may reasonably be considered as a quantitative measure of the softness of metal ions and is consistent with the HSAB principle by Pearson (1963, 1968). Wood et al. (1987) have shown experimentally that the relative solubilities of the metals in H20-NaCl-C02 solutions from 200°C to 350°C are consistent with the HSAB principle in chloride-poor solutions, the soft ions Au" " and Ag+ prefer to combine with the soft bisulfide ligand the borderline ions Fe +, Zn +, Pb +, Sb + and Bi- + prefer water, hydroxyl, carbonate or bicarbonate ligands, and the extremely hard Mo + bonds only to the hard anions OH and. Tables 1.23 and 1.24 show the classification of metals and ligands according to the HSAB principle of Ahrland et al. (1958), Pearson (1963, 1968) (Table 1.23) and softness parameter of Yamada and Tanaka (1975) (Table 1.24). Compari.son of Table 1.22 with Tables 1.23 and 1.24 makes it evident that the metals associated with the gold-silver deposits have a relatively soft character, whereas those associated with the base-metal deposits have a relatively hard (or borderline) character. For example, metals that tend to form hard acids (Mn +, Ga +, In- +, Fe +, Sn " ", MoO +, WO " ", CO2) and borderline acids (Fe +, Zn +, Pb +, Sb +) are enriched in the base-metal deposits, whereas metals that tend to form soft acids... 

Ag" ", Au" ", Tl" ", Tp+) are enriched in the gold-silver deposits. Metals that have high values of the softness parameter (Ag", Hg+, Tl" ", Cd ) are associated with the gold-silver deposits, whereas those that have low values of the softness parameter (Zn +, In +, Bi +, Te, Mn +, Sn" +, Ga " ) are found with the base-metal deposits. 

Coextrusion is the process of extruding two or more materials simultaneously or in tandem. It allows a combination of an ingredient such as wheat flour, which is inexpensive and easily enriched with vitamins and minerals, with dairy protein, which provides functionality and texture. For example, an early coextrusion of wheat flour and rennet casein was performed by van de Voort et al. (1984), who obtained products with varying characteristics depending on process parameters. 

Griesinger et al. [56] recorded Zn Mossbauer spectra with sources of Zn diffused into ZnO, ZnS (both wurtzite and sphalerite), ZnSe, ZnTe, and Cu, and an enriched ZnO absorber. The isomer shifts extracted from their spectra cover a velocity range of 112 pm s and were found to follow linearly the lattice spacing parameter where p and Mav are the host density and average...

Rotational-echo double-resonance (REDOR)(75,79) is a new solid-state NMR technique which is sensitive to through-space carbon-nitrogen interactions between selectively 13C and 15N-enriched sites separated by up to 5A (20-22). The parameter directly measured in a REDOR experiment is the heteronuclear dipolar coupling constant DCN, which is in itself proportional to the inverse third power of the intemuclear distance, rCN. It is this dependence on (icn)3 which accounts both for REDOR s ability to accurately measure short distances and its insensitivity to longer-range interactions. As a technique which can probe, in detail, intermolecular interactions over a distance range of 5A, REDOR is well suited to studying the distribution of small selectively-labeled molecules in polymer delivery systems.
