Turnover number INDEX

In a series of studies, the dehydrogenation and hydrogenolysis of cyclohexane was studied on both the stepped and low Miller index (111) crystal faces of platinum at a surface temperature of 300°C and a hydrogen to cyclohexane ratio of 20 1. While the rates on the stepped and low Miller index surfaces were not very different for the formation of benzene and hexane, the formation of cyclohexene was very structure sensitive, its rate being 100 times greater on the stepped surface than on the (111) crystal face. In Table III mrnnare the initial turnover numbers for the various reactions at low... 

In turn, whether significant pharmacokinetic differences arising from the pol)nnorphisms translate into relevant alterations in pharmaco-d)mamics (and clinical efficacy) depends on the operating region of the concentration-response relationship, therapeutic index and utility, and whether kinetic variability is outweighed by variability in receptor sensitivity or number, or in the turnover of the natural receptor ligand. 

Vitamin C status is generally assessed by estimating the saturation of body reserves or measuring plasma and leukocyte concentrations of the vitamin. Urinary excretion of hydroxyproline-containing peptides is reduced in people with inadequate vitamin C status, but a number of other factors that affect bone and connective tissue turnover confound interpretation of the results (Bates, 1977). The ratio of deoxypyridinolineipyridinoline compounds derived from collagen cross-links provides a more useful index, but is potentially affected by copper status (Tsuchiya and Bates, 1997).
