(Nature Publishing Group, 2012)One of the fastest rates of recent climate warming has been reported for the Arctic and the maritime Antarctic; for example, mean annual temperatures increased by 0.5 °C per decade over the Antarctic Peninsula during the ...

(International Bee Research Association, 2006)Honey has been used as a medicine since ancient times in many cultures and is still used in ‘folk medicine’. The use of honey as a therapeutic substance has been rediscovered by the medical profession in more recent times, ... -
(New Zealand Institute of Chemistry, 1983)Cellulose is the most abundant biopolymer on earth, and is the major component of urban waste. Thus cellulose must be seen as a very significant renewable source of chemical foodstocks when fossil fuels become restricted. -
(1976)The activity of nitrate reductase in Rhizobium japonicum is controlled by oxygen tension, and not by nitrate. The enzyme from R. japonicum grown anaerobically in the presence of nitrate resembles that from bacteroids in ...

Why using the level of the active component in manuka honey to replace the UMF rating is misleading (2008)There have been some news releases claiming that Professor Henle in Germany has found the chemical identity of UMF, and that in future chemical analysis will be used instead of assays of antibacterial activity to indicate ... -
(Springer, 2006)To explore macromolecular dynamics on the picosecond timescale, we used neutron spectroscopy. First, molecular dynamics were analyzed for the hyperthermophile malate dehydrogenase from Methanococcus jannaschii and a ...

(Elsevier, 1978)Kovacs' [1] qualitative test for N,N,N',N',-tetramethyl- p-phenylenediamine (TMPD) oxidase activity is a fundamental test in the identification of bacteria [2,3]. TMPD (E~ = +0.26 V at pH 7.0) acts as an artificial electron ...

(New Zealand Institute of Chemistry, 1982)Proteases comprise a significant proportion of those proteins which have been subject to detailed characterisation (amino acid sequence and high resolution crystallographic analysis). The extent of research interest in ... -
(Springer, 1987)Extracellular pullulanase (pullulan 6-glucanohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.41) was purified from cell free culture supernatants of Thermoanaerobium Tok6-B1 by ammonium sulphate precipitation, affinity precipitation, gel exclusion ...

(2003)The transition that has been observed in the dynamics of hydrated proteins at low temperatures (180–230 K) is normally interpreted as a change from vibrational, harmonic motion at low temperatures to anharmonic motions as ...
