LOUSY

What happens during hydrolysis is that the OH forms and the elemicin propyl alcohol drops out of solution and forms its own oil layer. Of course one won t see this because the solution is a big old brown mess, lousy with emulsion particles. Emulsions suck But can be dealt with effectively by adding a little acid or base, or filtration and the like. Anyway, after a little work up one gets some really pure phenylpropyl compound. And if Strike had Strike s way. Strike would have that OH stuck right on the middle (beta) carbon of the species. Work could then progress on using that OH to get an amphetamine (Sob Strike had so much about that subject that Strike was prepared to put in this book ). [Pg.51]

The patient presents to clinic several years later and complains that she "feels lousy." She states that she doesn t feel like eating and has lost 20 pounds (9 kg) in the last 6 months. [Pg.394]

Nasmyth MCM is not a cell cycle-regulated gene. If this were the case, then cyclins would be good markers, but they are lousy markers. [Pg.42]

Lehner In the embryo, cyclin E is a lousy target for the E2F pathway. It might be different in the imaginal disks. There, up-regulation of cyclin E as a result of E2F overexpression has been reported (Neufeld et al 1998). [Pg.54]

At first sight, this may appear to be a lousy function to excite evenly all the frequencies in a spectrum but because we use such a short pulse, we only use the bit of the function around x = 0. The first zero-crossing point is at 1/(2 x pulse width) - this would be at about 150 kHz for a 3 qs pulse. For a 400 MHz spectrometer, we need to cover a bandwidth of about 8 kHz for a proton spectrum. As Figure 3.4 shows, there is minimal power fall off for such a small pulse. [Pg.26]

Maximal overlap between the fluorescent emission spectra of the donor and the fluorescent absorption spectra of the acceptor is important for efficient FRET. Since the donor can be directly excited, even fluorophores with mediocre quantum yield may be used. However, the success of a ratiometric FRET approach will strongly depend on the quantum yield of the acceptor. While an acceptor with a lousy quantum yield may still be a good quencher of the donor fluorescence, it will not yield acceptor fluorescence to an appreciable extent. When calculating the ratio between donor and acceptor emission values, acceptors with a good quantum yield will therefore be preferred. [Pg.258]

SAQ 5.4 A mountaineer climbs Mount Everest and wishes to make a strong cup of tea. He boils his kettle, but the final drink tastes lousy because the water boiled at too low a temperature, itself because the pressure at the top of the mountain is only 0.4 x pe. Again taking the enthalpy of boiling the water to be 50 IdmoE1 and the normal boiling temperature of water to be 373 K, calculate the temperature of the water as it boils at the top of the mountain. [Pg.201]

F- is a lousy leaving group. It leaves only under drastic conditions. These conditions are not strongly basic. No reaction occurs. [Pg.47]

I- is an excellent nucleophile, but OH is such a lousy leaving group that alcohols are not electrophiles in substitution reactions under basic conditions. No reaction occurs. [Pg.47]

Secondary alkyl halides may undergo substitution or elimination under basic conditions, but with the strong hindered base and lousy nucleophile LDA, elimination is certain to occur. The product is CH3CH=CH2. [Pg.48]

The first dictionary definition of the word "story" is "An account or recital of an event or a series of events, either true or fictitious.In the investment community, biotech business plans are referred to as "stories," presumably because they combine both truth (they are sincerely made proposals of future reality) and fiction (they have not happened yet, and probably would not). So, get used to this word it is not a pejorative reference to your lousiness plan. [Pg.587]

Performance testing. NF 50, SC 61. Items on Behavior Checklist (BCL) recorded-gait unsteady. Appears to be very sleepy. Question How do you feel Answer Lousy. I feel very, very tired and my mouth is dry. Went to sleep immediately after lying down. [Pg.84]

As you may have noticed, the lousy yield and loss of potency hardly make this operation worth performing. [Pg.84]

M. Tsimidou, M. Lyrridou, D. Boskou, A. Paooa-Lousi, F. Kotsifaki, C. Petrakis, Grasa Aceites Al, 151-157, 1996. [Pg.653]

You are at a bottle cap convention where you hope to sell your bottle caps. You soon realize, however, that you re a lousy salesperson. Futhermore, all the other vendors at the convention are extremely excellent salespeople. Not only do they steal away all your potential customers, but they re so good that you end up buying bot-de caps from them as well. In the end, you have given away no bottle caps to others. Likewise, carbonic acid is unable to give away any hydrogen ions in the midst of a concentrated solution of such a strong acid. [Pg.695]

Computer systems validation personnel must also deal with design errors. A program that perfectly meets a lousy specification is a lousy program. Specifically for medical devices, books on software reliability tend to set aside the user interface issue, and treat it as the sole province of the human factor analyst. The reliability of a system is determined by how all its various parts, including the people who use it, work together. [Pg.282]

The orthodox and standard quantum measurement theory uses a probability density view focused on the particle conception. The physical nature of the interaction that may lead to an event (click) is not central. Generally, it is true that a click will be eliciting the quantum state, but due to external factors, a click can be related to noise or any source of systematic error (lousy detectors) from the QM viewpoint developed here such events have no direct QM-related cause see Ref. [17], The probabilities cannot be primary. They can be useful as actually they are. One thing is sure the clicks do have a cause. But causality is a concept more related to a particle description it belongs to classical physics. [Pg.70]

This is calculated at a spot neighborhood. Thus, the information contained at the spot is there to reflect the value given by the mathematical framework unless the detector is lousy by the structure of this equation, we know then that it makes part of an interference pattern. [Pg.71]

The system worked for a while Health care expenditures dropped sharply through 1996. But HMOs, it turned out, were too tough in their requirements. Newspapers were filled with horror stories about people dying because their hard-hearted HMO refused to approve desperately needed treatment. Lousy HMO care was one of the themes of the double Oscar-winning movie As Good As It Gets in 1997. [Pg.170]

Why is the first paragraph so much better Because it s not just opinion. It s opinion supported by evidence. The second paragraph is all opinion. Every sentence is debatable every sentence tells us what the author believes is true, but not what is known to be true. The author of the second paragraph doesn t provide any evidence to support why he or she thinks that James is such a lousy boss. As a result, we re not likely to take his or her opinion very seriously. [Pg.54]

Normaify they held a twinkle ofgoodhumoin but there was no humour in themnow. He propped an elbow on the bar. Bad business. Lousy. ... [Pg.24]

Charles Goodyear was a young bankrupt hardware merchant when he visited the Roxbury India Rubber Co, store, America s first rubber manufacturer, in 1834. He was trying to sell an idea for a new valve to be used in rubber life preservers. But his timing was lousy ... [Pg.31]
