An Investigation of the Adsorption Characteristics of 5'ATP and 5'AMP onto the Surface of Caso4 x 2H2O

A model has been proposed in which solid surfaces can act as a site for cataletic activity of condensation reactions for certain biomolecules. From this model, the adsorption characteristics of 5'ATP and 5'AMP onto the surface of CaSO4.2H2O was chosen for study. It has been proven that 5'ATP and 5'AMP do adsorb onto the surface of CaSO4. Studies were then made to determine the dependence of absorption versus time, concentration, ionic strength and pH. It was found that the adsorption of the nucleotides is highly pH dependent, primarily determined by the phosphate acid groups of the nucleic acid molecule. From this investigation, the data obtained is discussed in relation to the model for the prebiotic earth

An investigation of the adsorption characteristics of 5 prime ATP and 5 prime AMP onto the surface of CaSO sub 4 x 2H sub 2 O

A model has been proposed (Lahev and Chans, 1982) in which solid surfaces can act as a site for catalytic activity of condensation reactions for certain biomolecules. From this model, the adsorption characteristics of 5'ATP and 5'AMP onto the surface of CaSO4 2H2O was chosen for study. It has been proven that 5'ATP and 5'AMP do adsorb onto the surface of CaSO4. Studies were then made to determine the dependence of adsorption versus time, concentration, ionic strength and pH.

Diboson and electroweak physics at CMS

We present the most recent studies of diboson production and electroweak physics in proton-proton collisions at 7TeV and 8TeV center-of-mass energy based on data recorded by the CMS detector at the LHC in 2011 and 2012. These include precise measurements of γγ, ZZ and WZ production. Results on triboson production of WWγ and WZγ are also presented. The results are interpreted in terms of constraints on anomalous triple or quartic gauge couplings. We also review some recent electroweak physics results, including the purely electroweak Z bosons production cross section and the muon charge asymmetry measurement. The results are compared with Standard Model prediction
