University concerns

In addition to the universal concern for catalytic selectivity, the following reasons could be advanced to argue why an electrochemical scheme would be preferred over a thermal approach (i) There are experimental parameters (pH, solvent, electrolyte, potential) unique only to the electrode-solution interface which can be manipulated to dictate a certain reaction pathway, (ii) The presence of solvent and supporting electrolyte may sufficiently passivate the electrode surface to minimize catalytic fragmentation of starting materials. (iii) Catalyst poisons due to reagent decomposition may form less readily at ambient temperatures, (iv) The chemical behavior of surface intermediates formed in electrolytic solutions can be closely modelled after analogous well-characterized molecular or cluster complexes (1-8). (v)... 

Aside from permeability and absorbency complications, other universal concerns of helium leak detection are factors such as source operating pressure, spraying patterns (for tracer-probe technique), response time, clean-up time, and cold trap usage. Pump use and general helium leak detector maintenance operations are also fairly universal. 

Some Issues Frequently Raised (y. Much of the available literature about these university-industry arrangements deals with the controversies and conflicts which have been raised by the Issues involved. Although a discussion of these Issues is beyond the scope of the inventory presented here, it would seem useful at least to touch on a few of these points. For instance, with regard to the many new biotechnology companies which have recently been formed, it was pointed out that quite a few have principals who also serve on another company s board or whose primary employment is with a university. Concerns have been expressed regarding conflicts of Interest, complications on safety fronts, patent and royalty areas, and communications. Some scientists fear that biologists will become reluctant to publish their findings once the profit motive is at work. Further, it was noted that the majority... 

Work of this nature proceeds most smoothly if a number of groups pool their respective expertises. We could not have proceeded in this field without the cooperation of the research groups of Professor Barnett Rosenberg (Michigan State University) and Dr. Bernhard Lippert (Technische Universitat Miinchen) who supplied us with many of the crystals. We have had many detailed discussions with Professor I. D. Brown (McMaster University) concerning his bond valence model and he has been more than willing to help us. Members of my research group involved in various phases of this work have been J. Britten,... 

In this paper we would like to review our work on FE at Washington State University concerning systems involving adhesive or interfacial failure. Work of other researchers involving FE accompanying adhesive failure can be found in References 1-6. 

The oxidation of n -butane to MAN was the first industrialized reaction converting paraffin to a large tonnage product and has continuously inspired researchers to improve and further understand the mechanism of the reaction, ttydng to translate this knowledge to other saturated organic molecules. The catalyst has been extensively studied and current research is very active on this topic. In the last 30 years many patents have been published by different companies and universities concerning modifications and improvements that increase the yield of the process. 

The possible link between lead water pipes and Michael Caller s death did not generate universal concern. In its reporting on the case, the New York Times said nothing about lead water pipes, and the paper s published accounts do not even include the comments by Ogden Doremus linking Caller s lead intake to the city s use of lead pipes.The New York Herald did consider the broader implications of Michael Caller s death, however, and raised these issues in an editorial shortly after the... 

An even greater number of awards is made by local authorities to students who have a minimum of two A levels and a firm offer of a place at a university. They may also be taken up at a technical college or for the college period of a sandwich course. These grants can often be supplemented by university scholarships awarded as a result of a special examination at the university concerned. Many of these are made up by the Ministry of Education to the value of a State Scholarship. Particulars can be obtained from Registrars of the universities or from university calendars. 

Generic inspection checklists can be used to save time in covering areas of universal concern such as basic life safety, housekeeping, or fire protection. However, generic checklists need to be customized for the specific operational needs that may exist. 

Microbial contamination is a universal concern. In most studies, microbial metabolic activity on plant tissue surfaces contributes negligibly to overall metabolic activity and can be ignored. Contamination in plant cell cultures and plant tissues that have been severely damaged may be significant, however, and should be carefully considered. Microbial infection within tissue sections may have a significant effect on measured heat rate, but this has only been studied in a few tissues [29, 30]. Usually, the presence of microbial contamination can be detected by the characteristic exponential increase in heat rates with time characteristic of microbial growth.
