Intrinsic treatment

This effect assumes importance only at very small radii, but it has some applications in the treatment of nucleation theory where the excess surface energy of small clusters is involved (see Section IX-2). An intrinsic difficulty with equations such as 111-20 is that the treatment, if not modelistic and hence partly empirical, assumes a continuous medium, yet the effect does not become important until curvature comparable to molecular dimensions is reached. Fisher and Israelachvili [24] measured the force due to the Laplace pressure for a pendular ring of liquid between crossed mica cylinders and concluded that for several organic liquids the effective surface tension remained unchanged... [Pg.54]

Dirac showed in 1928 dial a fourth quantum number associated with intrinsic angidar momentum appears in a relativistic treatment of the free electron, it is customary to treat spin heiiristically. In general, the wavefimction of an electron is written as the product of the usual spatial part (which corresponds to a solution of the non-relativistic Sclnodinger equation and involves oidy the Cartesian coordinates of the particle) and a spin part a, where a is either a or p. A connnon shorthand notation is often used, whereby... [Pg.29]

For different types of collections, this balance is differently defined. For example paper conservation treatments commonly undertaken in the museum conservation laboratory would be impractical in a Hbrary archive having a far greater collection size. The use of treatments for mass paper quantities would be unacceptable in the art museum. Documents in archives and books in Hbraries serve a different goal from art objects in a museum. Their use value Hes primarily in their information rather than in an intrinsic esthetic value. Whereas optimal preservation of that information value requires preservation of the object itself, a copy or even a completely different format could serve the same purpose. [Pg.430]

Because the time at high temperature is much less, austenite is produced, which is chemically inhomogeneous especially with undissolved carbides, and has a fine grain crystal size. The formation of the hard martensite requites more rapid cooling than for conventional hardening. Thus case hardening by heat treatment intrinsically requites that the surface region to be hardened be relatively thin and cooled rapidly. [Pg.211]

Intrinsic asthma, also called idiopathic asthma, usually develops in adulthood. In intrinsic asthma allergic factors are not demonstrable. Episodes of intrinsic asthma may be triggered by a variety of stimuli, eg, emotional state, exposure to cold air, or inert dusts. Both intrinsic and extrinsic asthmatics can be prone to exercise-induced attacks. Individuals who experience a combination of extrinsic and intrinsic asthmatic reactions have mixed asthma. Status asthmaticus refers to an especially acute life-threatening asthma attack which is resistant to normal treatments and which may require hospitalization in order to stabilize the patient. [Pg.436]

Ex situ bioremediation may use various biological wastewater treatment processes, soil piles, or land appHcation. With in situ bioremediation, the basic process is the same microbes, soil, and water working together as a bioreactor. Where the in situ techniques differ are in how contaminants and microbes are brought in contact and how oxygen, nutrients, and other chemical supplements ate distributed in the soil—water—air matrix. Typical in situ bioremediation techniques include natural or intrinsic attenuation, air sparging, and bioventing. [Pg.170]

The morphological variance appears more important with chrysotile than with amphiboles. The intrinsic stmcture of chrysotile, its higher flexibiUty, and interfibnl adhesion (10) allow a variety of intermediate shapes when fiber aggregates are subjected to mechanical shear. Amphibole fibers are generally more britde and accommodate less morphological deformation during mechanical treatment. [Pg.349]

P-Adrenoceptor blockers for the treatment of hypertension include (/) the cardioselective P -adrenoceptor blockers without intrinsic sympathomimetic activity (ISA), ie, atenolol (Table 3), bisoprolol (Table 3), and metoprolol (Table 1) (2) the cardioselective with ISA, ie, acebutolol (Table 1) (J) the noncardioselective without ISA, ie, propranolol (Table 1) and timolol [26839-75-8] C23H24N4O2S and (4) the noncardioselective with ISA, ie, oxprenolol [6452-71-7] C 3H23N03, and pindolol. [Pg.141]

Electron spin resonance (esr) (6,44) has had more limited use in coal studies. A rough estimate of the free-radical concentration or unsatisfied chemical bonds in the coal stmcture has been obtained as a function of coal rank and heat treatment. For example, the concentration increases from 2 X 10 radicals/g at 80 wt % carbon to a sharp peak of about 50 x 10 radicals/g at 95 wt % carbon content and drops almost to zero at 97 wt % carbon. The concentration of these radicals is less than that of the common functional groups such as hydroxyl. However, radical existence seems to be intrinsic to the coal molecule and may affect the reactivity of the coal as well as its absorption of ultraviolet radiation. Measurements from room... [Pg.220]

The anticonvulsant primidone (1035) resembles phenobarbital but lacks the 2-oxo substituent. It was introduced in 1952 and has remained a valuable drug for controlling grand mal and psychomotor epilepsy. As might be expected, primidone is metabolized to yield phenobarbital (1034 X = 0) and C-ethyl-C-phenylmalondiamide (1036), both of which have marked anticonvulsant properties however, primidone does have intrinsic activity and an appropriate mixture of its metabolites has only a fraction of its activity (73MI21303). Primidone may be made in several ways, of which desulfurization by Raney nickel of the 2-thiobarbiturate (1034 X = S) or treatment of the diamide (1036) with formic acid (at 190 °C) seem to be the most satisfactory (54JCS3263). [Pg.153]

Reactions catalyzed by hydrogen ion or hydroxide ion, when studied at controlled pH, are often described by pseudo-first-order rate constants that include the catalyst concentration or activity. Activation energies determined from Arrhenius plots using the pseudo-first-order rate constants may include contributions other than the activation energy intrinsic to the reaction of interest. This problem was analyzed for a special case by Higuchi et al. the following treatment is drawn from a more general analysis. ... [Pg.256]

Under the RCRA exemption, wastes intrinsically associated with the exploration and development of oil and gas do not have to follow Subtitle C regulations for disposal. Under Subtitle C, hazardous wastes must follow strict guidelines for storage, treatment, and transportation and disposal. The cost of handling materials under the Subtitle C scenario is overwhelming. Under the exemption, the operator is allowed to dispose of wellsite waste in a prudent manner and is not obliged to use licensed hazardous waste transporters and licensed Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Facilities (TSDF). [Pg.1361]

In spite of their intrinsic synthetic potential, addition reactions of metal enolates of non-stabilized esters, amides, and ketones to epoxides are not widely used in the synthesis of complex molecules. Following the seminal work of Danishefsky [64], who introduced the use of Et2AlCl as an efficient catalyst for the reaction, Taylor obtained valuable spiro lactones through the addition reaction of the lithium eno-late of tert-butyl acetate to spiro-epoxides, upon treatment of the corresponding y-... [Pg.295]

The treatment of an autoimmune disease very much depends on the nature of the clinical outcome it causes. Although the formation of autoantibodies causes the inactivation of the gastric intrinsic factor, the subsequent shortage of vitamin B12 can be easily overcome by supplying it via an parenteral route. Lifelong immunosuppression (with all its side effects) thus is inappropriate. When, however, as in sympathetic ophtalmia, after damage of the first eye the second eye is endangered, an even drastic immunosuppression is mandatory. [Pg.242]

A particularly active area of research concerns the elucidation of the mechanisms of refractoriness or resistance to anti-VEGF therapy. Tumor cell-intrinsic or treatment-induced expression of angiogenic factors may be implicated Very recent studies have provided evidence that, at least is some murine models, refractor-inessm to anti-VEGF therapy is related to the ability of the tumor to recruit CDllb+Grl+ myeloid cells, which promote angiogenesis [5]. It remains to be established whether these findings also apply to human tumors. [Pg.1272]

From this mathematical treatment we properly conclude that ki + k- is the natural rate constant. The data workup does not give the sum because of an artful algebraic manipulation. Instead, the sum k-i + k is simply the inverse of the intrinsic time constant for the single exponential that defines the approach to equilibrium. [Pg.47]

An isolated flagellum will continue to bend actively, indicating that this function is linked to its intrinsic structure. Treatment of cilia from the protozoan Tetra-hymena with the proteolytic enzyme trypsin selectively dissolves the nexin links and radial spokes but leaves unaffected the microtubules and dynein arms. If such a preparation is treated with a small amount of ATP, the loosened microtubule doublets slide against each other and through longitudinal overlap, extend for a distance that is up to nine times the original length of the cilium (Warner and Mitchell, 1981). [Pg.11]

Opioidergic agents. Naltrexone and nalmefene, opioid antagonists with no intrinsic agonist properties, have been studied for the treatment of alcohol dependence. Naltrexone has been studied much more extensively than nalmefene for this indication. In 1984 naltrexone was approved by the FDA for the treatment of opioid dependence, and in 1994 it was approved for the treatment of alcohol dependence. Nalmefene is approved in the United States as a parenteral formulation for the acute reversal of opioid effects (e.g., after opioid overdose or analgesia). [Pg.22]
