Gas Selectivity

Control of pore window size is the standard approach for tuning gas selectivity in porous solids. Here, we present the first example where this is translated into a molecular porous liquid formed from organic cage molecules. Reduction of the cage window size by chemical synthesis switches the selectivity from Xe-selective to CH<sub>4</sub>-selective, which is understood using <sup>129</sup>Xe, <sup>1</sup>H, and pulsed-field gradient NMR spectroscopy.

Collection Methods

The standard approach to measuring livestock ownership in pastoralist communities relies on an assumption of uniformity that does not reflect the diverse concepts of ownership held by pastoralists themselves. In Namibia's Koakaveld Region, Himba and Herero pastoralist communities have a rich vocabulary for categorising the origins, usage rights and cultural valence of their cattle. Drawing on both authors' experience overseeing a large-scale rangeland management programme evaluation in Namibia's Northern Communal Areas – and one author's experience growing up in and keeping cattle in a Himba pastoralist community – we show how the standard approach to measuring cattle ownership undermines accurate estimates of livestock wealth, off-take and inequality, and obfuscates pastoralist's strategies for turning ecological variability to their advantage. We conclude with lessons about how multi-dimensional data collection methods improve upon the standard approach to livestock ownership measurements.

Routine Production

In the years since the publication of Atherton and Sheppard's volume, the technique of Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis has matured considerably and is now the standard approach for the routine production of peptides. The basic problems outstanding at the time of publication of this earlier work have now been, for the most part, solved. As a result, innovators in the field have focussed their efforts to develop methodologies and chemistry for the synthesis of more complex structures. The focus of this new volume is much broader, and covers not only the essential procedures for the production of linear peptides but also more advanced techniques for preparing cyclic, side-chain modified, phospho- and glycopeptides. Many other methods also deserving attention have been included: convergent peptide synthesis; peptide-protein conjugation; chemoselective ligation; and chemoselective purification. The difficult preparation of cysteine and methionine-containing peptides is also covered, as well as methods for overcoming aggregation during peptide chain assembly and a survey of available automated instrumentation.

Good Agreement

Sea quark distributions in the NLO approximation, based on the phenomenological valon model or constituent quark model are analyzed. We use the parametrized inverse Mellin transform technique to perform a direct fit with available experimental data and obtain the unknown parameters of the distributions. We try to extend the calculation to the NLO approximation for the singlet and nonsinglet cases in DIS phenomena. We do also the same calculation for electron–positron annihilation. The resulting sea distributions are effectively independent of the process used. The approach of complete RG improvement (CORGI) is employed and the results are compared with the standard approach of perturbative QCD in the [Formula: see text] scheme with a physical scale. The comparisons with data are in good agreement. As is expected, the results in the CORGI approach indicate a better agreement to the data than the NLO calculation in the standard approach.
