The avidin-biotin complex, known for its extremely high affinity (Green, 1975), has been studied experimentally more extensively than most other protein-ligand systems. The adhesion forces between avidin and biotin have been measured directly by AFM experiments (Florin et al., 1994 Moy et al., 1994b Moy et al., 1994a). SMD simulations were performed on the entire tetramer of avidin with four biotins bound to investigate the microscopic detail of nnbinding of biotin from avidin (Izrailev et al., 1997). 

The only example of xenon in a fractional oxidation state, +, is the bright emerald green paramagnetic dixenon cation, Xe [12185-20-5]. Mixtures of xenon and fluorine gases react spontaneously with tiquid antimony pentafluoride in the dark to form solutions of XeF+ Sb2 F, in which Xe is formed as an iatermediate product that is subsequently oxidized by fluorine to the XeF+ cation (83). Spectroscopic studies have shown that xenon is oxidized at room temperature by solutions of XeF+ ia SbF solvent to give the XE cation (84). 

Carbonate Decomposition. The carbonate content of Green River oil shale is high (see Table 4). In addition, the northern portion of the Piceance Creek basin contains significant quantities of the carbonate minerals nahcoUte and dawsonite. The decomposition of these minerals is endothermic and occurs at ca 600—750°C for dolomite, 600—900°C for calcite, 350—400°C for dawsonite, and 100—120°C for nahcohte. Kinetics of these reactions have been studied (19). Carbon dioxide, a product of decomposition, dilutes the off-gases produced from retorting processes at the above decomposition temperatures. 

Utilisa tion of shale oil products for petrochemical production has been studied (47—51). The effects of prerefining on product yields for steam pyrolysis of shale oil feed and the suitabiUty of Green River shale oil as a petrochemical feedstock were investigated. Pyrolysis was carried out on the whole oil, vacuum distillate, and mildly, moderately, and severely hydrogenated vacuum distillates. 

Before coupling, excess nitrous acid must be destroyed. Nitrite can react with coupling components to form nitroso compounds causiag deHterious effects on the final dyestuff. The presence of nitrite can be detected by 4,4 -diamiQO-diphenyHnethane-2,2 -sulfone [10215-25-5] (Green reagent) or starch—iodide. Removal of nitrite is achieved by addition of sulfamic acid or urea [57-13-6], however, sulfamic acid [5329-14-6] has been more effective ia kinetic studies of nine nitrous acid scavangers (18). 

Very often the environment is reflected in the composition of corrosion products, eg, the composition of the green patina formed on copper roofs over a period of years. The determination of the chemical composition of this green patina was one of the first systematic corrosion studies ever made (see Copper). The composition varied considerably depending on the location of the stmcture as shown in Table 2 (26,27). 

The cyanine class of dyes is also useful in biological, medical, laser, and electro-optic appHcations. Dyes marketed as Povan [3546-41-6] (5) and Dithiazanine [7187-55-5] (6) are useful anthelmintics, and Indocyanine Green [3599-32-4] (7) is an infrared-absorbing tracer for blood-dilution medical diagnoses. "Stains-AU." is a weU-studied biological stain (8) and Merocyanine 540 s photochemotherapeutic activity is known in some detail (9). Many commercially available red and infrared laser dyes are cyanines (10). 

With the increased awareness of environmental and green issues there has been an increased interest in natural dyes accompanied by a lobby for natural fibers in favor of synthetic fibers. However, studies have shown (3) that if 1990 s volume of cotton were colored with natural dyes, at least 31% of the available world s agricultural land would be needed to cultivate the requisite plants. The estimate is based on it taking, on average, 440 g of fresh dye plant to achieve the same tinctorial effect as 1 g of synthetic dye.
