The tripeptide glutathione (GSH) is present in cells at millimolar concentrations, and the ratio of GSH to glutathione disulfide (GSSG) is critical to cellular redox balance....

We require beam time on NIMROD in order to complete and continue a previous experiment (RB1010046) on Laponite - water suspensions. We have succesfully performed the experiment...

We propose to investigate on INES the mineralogical composition of a collection of ceramic fragments from three different archeological sites in the Modena area (Italy). These...

In a recent experiment [RB810044] we have measured the mean kinetic energy in supercooled bulk water at three pressures values in the range 200-4000 bar in order to shed light...

The microscopic structure of a dilute solution of LiCl in water is determined at different thermodynamic states in both the liquid and glassy phases. This solution exhibits...

By combining NDIS experiment and EPSR simulation we have been able to show with a previous experiment (RB 720500) two main phenomena for water confined in the MCM silica matrix....

We have recently performed a DINS experiment on water at 268 K, at pressures ranging from 25.6 MPa to 400 MPa. These data show that the mean kinetic energy of protons exhibits...

In a recent DINS experiment (RB520101) we have possibly evidenced a new anomaly of supercooled water. Data at T = 269 and 271 K show clear differences in the proton neutron...

The unprecedented simultaneous accessibility of the low and high Q region available on NIMROD allows to tackle the issue of ageing of colloidal systems from the point of view of...

Amorphous polymorphism is one of the key concepts in our understanding of water, its structure, physical properties and anomalies. The basic idea is that liquid water at ambient...

Supercritical CO2 is an interesting medium for supercritical fluid extraction of aromatic molecules, due to the low temperatures and pressures needed to the process. Methanol is...

Caffeine is a prototypical example of a planar, heteroatomic bicyclic, aromatic ring compound that, although somewhat polar, exhibits limited aqueous solubility and is...

A careful experiment on Vesuvio has shown an anomalous mean kinetic energy, , excess in moderately supercooled bulk water. This energy excess has a clear signature in the shape...

The estimated number of contact lens wearers worldwide exceeds 140 million people: contact lenses are indeed commonly used for corrective, therapeutic and esthetics purposes....
