Gieren, A. Siebels, H. Burger, K. Meffert, A. X-ray photographic structure determination of 7-diethylamino-6-methyl-4-phenyl-2,2-bis(trifluoromethyl)-4,5-dihydro-l,3-di-oxepin-5-one. Tetrahedron Lett. 1975 (37), 3227-3230. 

Laue pattern The symmetrical array of spots obtained on a photographic plate exposed to a non-homogeneous beam of X-rays after its passage through a crystal. The patterns constitute the earliest, although one of the most difficult, methods of investigating crystal structure by means of X-rays. 

Using MRI as a substitute for X ray tomography IS only the first of what are many medical applica tions More he on the horizon If for example the rate of data acquisition could be increased then it would become possible to make the leap from the equivalent of still photographs to motion pictures One could watch the inside of the body as it works— see the heart beat see the lungs expand and con tract—rather than merely examine the structure of an organ... 

Present day techniques for structure determination in carbohydrate chemistry are sub stantially the same as those for any other type of compound The full range of modern instrumental methods including mass spectrometry and infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy is brought to bear on the problem If the unknown substance is crystalline X ray diffraction can provide precise structural information that m the best cases IS equivalent to taking a three dimensional photograph of the molecule...

Dispersion Characteristics The chief characteristics of gas-in-liquid dispersions, like those of hquid-in-gas suspensions, are heterogeneity and instabihty. The composition and structure of an unstable dispersion must be obsei ved in the dynamic situation by looking at the mixture, with or without the aid of optical devices, or by photographing it, preferably in nominal steady state photographs usually are required for quantitative treatment. Stable foams may be examined after the fact of their creation if they are sufficiently robust or if an immobilizing technique such as freezing is employed [Chang et al., Ind. Eng Chem., 48, 2035 (1956)]. 

Early diffraction photographs of such DNA fibers taken by Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins in London and interpreted by James Watson and Francis Crick in Cambridge revealed two types of DNA structures A-DNA and B-DNA. The B-DNA form is obtained when DNA is fully hydrated as it is in vivo. A-DNA is obtained under dehydrated nonphysiological conditions. Improvements in the methods for the chemical synthesis of DNA have recently made it possible to study crystals of short DNA molecules of any selected sequence. These studies have essentially confirmed the refined fiber diffraction models for A- and B-DNA and in addition have given details of small structural variations for different DNA sequences. Furthermore, a new structural form of DNA, called Z-DNA, has been discovered. 

An aerial view of the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility at Grenoble, France, an advanced source of synchrotron x-ray radiation for use in the study of protein structure, as well as for use in the physical and material sciences. The synchrotron radiation is produced in the circular building in the lower left of the photograph. (Courtesy of ESRF.)... 

XRD is an excellenr, nondestructive method for identifying phases and characterizing the structural properties of thin films and multilayers. It is inexpensive and easy to implement. The future will see more use of GIXD and depth dependent measurements, since these provide important information and can be carried out on lab-based equipment (rather than requiring synchrotron radiation). Position sensitive detectors will continue to replace counters and photographic film. 

FIGURE 21.11 The structure of UQ-cyt c reductase, also known as the cytochrome hci complex. The alpha helices of cytochrome b (pale green) define the transmembrane domain of the protein. The bottom of the structure as shown extends approximately 75 A into the mitochondrial matrix, and die top of the structure as shown extends about 38 A into the intermembrane space.

Fig. 1. The crystal structure of a hydroquinone clathrate according to Palin and Powell. 8 The balls inside the transparent spheres represent argon atoms encaged in the cavities formed by the two interpenetrating lattices, (photograph kindly supplied by Dr. Powell).

Moseley photographed characteristic spectra for some 38 elements that could serve as x-ray tube targets. In two papers,37 he not only uncovered structure in the K and L spectra—he alscr established the atomic number as more fundamental than the atomic weight, and he provided brilliant support for- the Bohr theory of atomic structure.

A solid emulsion is a suspension of a liquid or solid phase in a solid. For example, opals are solid emulsions formed when partly hydrated silica fills the interstices between close-packed microspheres of silica aggregates. Gelatin desserts are a type of solid emulsion called a gel, which is soft but holds its shape. Photographic emulsions are gels that also contain solid colloidal particles of light-sensitive materials such as silver bromide. Many liquid crystalline arrays can be considered colloids. Cell membranes form a two-dimensional colloidal structure (Fig. 8.44).
