In this paper, the transformation water activity of L-Phenylalanine (L-Phe) in a methanol-water solution at a different temperature was measured by the ternary diagram. The influence of water activity on the transformation temperature and on the transformation rate was investigated. The solubility of the metastable form of different water activities was estimated based on the thermodynamic equilibrium and the results showed that the anhydrous L-Phe can be synthesized at room temperature by decreasing water activity, the transformation rate from monohydrate to anhydrate was enhanced with the increase of water activity. The predicted solubility value is in good agreement with the experimentally obtained. Meanwhile, tailor-made additives were applied into the system as to investigate the transformation behavior of L-Phe. Their mechanism was proposed based on the Langmuir model fitting. The result manifested that the addition of L-Trp/L-His amino acid in the L-Phe solution decelerated the transformation rate. When the concentration of L-Trp amino acid reached 0.7 × 10−4 mol/mL, the transformation behavior of L-Phe can be fully impeded, and the transformation behavior can be partially inhibited with the addition of L-Trp at 313.15 K or with the addition of L-His at 283.15 K/313.15 K.

SummaryThe retention of the protein nutritional value during storage of lactosehydrolysed dried milk at different water activities (aw) was studied and compared with that of ordinary milk. In the lactose-hydrolysed milk biologically available lysine decreased much more rapidly than in the ordinary milk at all the different aw studied. Thus, at conditions normally accepted for ordinary dried milk (aw ~0·2; moisture ~ 4 %) there was an available lysine loss in the hydrolysed milk of about 25 % after 2 months and about 40 % after 6-months storage at room temperature. This occurred without any visible browning. It is concluded that drying to very low aw (≦ 0·11) is necessary to obtain good stability of the protein nutritional value (PNV) in lactose-hydrolysed milk. The drying, however, must be done so that losses in nutritional value are minimal during that process. It should also be noted that fat oxidation might be a problem at such low aw. A chemical method for available lysine assay (guanidination and assay of homoarginine) gave values in good agreement with the biological evaluations with rats.

IntroductionThere have been several t.e.m. studies (1,2,3,4) of the dislocation arrangements in the matrix and around the particles in dispersion strengthened single crystals deformed in single slip. Good agreement has been obtained in general between the observed structures and the various theories for the flow stress and work hardening of this class of alloy. There has been though some difficulty in obtaining an accurate picture of these arrangements in the case when the obstacles are large (of the order of several 1000's Å). This is due to both the physical loss of dislocations from the thin foil in its preparation and to rearrangement of the structure on unloading and standing at room temperature under the influence of the very high localised stresses in the vicinity of the particles (2,3).This contribution presents part of a study of the Cu-Cr-SiO2 system where age hardening from the Cu-Cr and dispersion strengthening from Cu-Sio2 is combined.

Aim and Objective: Ultrafine Ag/ZnO nanotetrapods (AZNTP) have been prepared successfully using silver (I)–bis (oxalato) zinc complex and 1, 3-diaminopropane (DAP) with a phase separation system, and have been injected into a diethyl/water solution. Materials and Methods: This crystal structure and lattice constant of the AZNTP obtained were investigated by means of a SEM, XRD, TEM and UV-vis spectrum. Results: The results of the present study demonstrated the growth and characterization AZNTP for humidity sensing and DAP plays a key role in the determination of particle morphology. AZNTP films with 23 nm in arm diameter have shown highly sensitive, quick response sensor material that works at room temperature.

Infrared spectra of the L-alanine (I), L-leucine (II), L-valine (III) and L-tert-leucine (IV) N-acetyl N'-methylamides were measured. Amides I-IV are not self associated in tetrachlormethane in the concentration 2 . 10-5 mol l-1 at room temperature and in tetrachloroethylene in the concentration 1.5 . 10-4 mol l-1 at temperatures above 65° C. True conformational changes are observable only with the least flexible amide IV which exists at room temperature in a C5 conformation. This conformational type is also highly populated in the valine derivative III, but is less important in the alanine and leucine derivatives I and II in which the intramolecularly bonded C7 and the distorted hydrogen-nonbonded conformations contribute seriously.

ABSTRACTThe defect and atomic profiles for MeV implantation of Si in GaAs were investigated using He++ channeling, TEM, and SIMS. Doses of 1–10 × 1015Si/cm2 at 1–3 MeV were used. MeV implantation at room temperature rendered only a small amount of lattice disorder in GaAs. Upon annealing at 400°C for 1 h or 800°C for 30 a, we observed a ‘defect-free’ surface region (- 1 μ for 3 MeV implant). Below this region, extensive secondary defects were formed in a band which was 0.7 μ wide and centered at 2 μ for 3 MeV implant. These defects were mostly dislocations lying in the [111] plane. SIMS depth profiles of Si implants showed the Si peak to be very close to the peak position of the defects. The experimental profiles of Si were compared to the TRIM calculation; generally good agreement existed among the peak positions.
