As foaming appears as a problem in chemical and fermentation processes that inhibits reactor performance, the eminence of a novel fluorocarbon-hydrocarbon unsymmetrical bolaform (FHUB: OH(CH2)(11)N+(C2H4)(2)(CH2)(2)(CF2)(5)CF3 I-) surfactant as an antifoaming agent as well as a foam-reducing agent was investigated and compared with other surfactants and a commercial antifoaming agent. The surface elasticity of FHUB was determined as 4 mN/m, indicating its high potential on thinning of the foam film. The interactions between FHUB and the microoganism were investigated in a model fermentation process related with an enzyme production by recombinant Escherichia coli, in V = 3.0 dm(3) bioreactor systems with V-R = 1.65 dm3 working volume at air inlet rate of Q(o)/V-R = 0.5 dm(3) dm(-3) min(-1) and agitation rate of N = 500 min(-1) oxygen transfer conditions, at T = 37 degrees C, pH(o) = 7.2, and C-FHUB = 0 and 0.1 mM, in a glucose-based defined medium. As FHUB did not influence the metabolism, specific enzyme activity values obtained with and without FHUB were close to each other; however, because of the slight decrease in oxygen transfer coefficient, slightly lower volumetric enzyme activity and cell concentrations were obtained. However, when FHUB is compared with widely used silicon oil based Antifoam A, with the use of the FHUB, higher physical oxygen transfer coefficient (K(L)a) values are obtained. Moreover, as the amount required for the foam control is very low, minute changes in the working volume of the bioreactor were obtained indicating the high potential of the use of FHUB as an antifoaming agent as well as a foam-reducing agent.

In Situ Formed "Weakly Ligated/Labile Ligand" Iridium(0) Nanoparticles and Aggregates as Catalysts for the Complete Hydrogenation of Neat Benzene at Room Temperature and Mild Pressures
Bayram, Ercan; Zahmakiran, Mehmet; Özkar, Saim; Finke, Richard G. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2010-07-20)
"Weakly ligated/labile ligand" nanoparticles, that is nanoparticles where only weakly coordinated ligands plus the desired catalytic reactants are present, are of fundamental interest. Described herein is a catalyst system for benzene hydrogenation to cyclohexane consisting of "weakly ligated/labile ligand" Ir(0) nanoparticles and aggregates plus dry-HCl formed formed in situ from commercially available [(1,5-COD)IrCl](2) plus 40 +/- 1 psig (similar to 2.7 atm) H(2) at 22 +/- 0.1 degrees C. Multiple control...
Novel conducting polymer electrolyte biosensor based on poly(1-vinyl imidazole) and poly(acrylic acid) networks
Arslan, A; Kiralp, S; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Bozkurt, A (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2006-03-14)
Biosensor construction and characterization studies of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and poly(1-vinyl imidazole) (PVI) complex systems have been carried out. The biosensors were prepared by mixing PAA with PVI at several stoichiometric ratios, x (molar ratio of the monomer repeat units). The enzyme, invertase, was entrapped in the PAA/PVA interpenetrating polymer networks during complexation. Modifications were made on the PAA/PVI conducting polymer electrolyte matrixes to improve the stability and performance o...
Active Janus Particles at Interfaces of Liquid Crystals
Mangal, Rahul; Nayani, Karthik; Kim, Young-Ki; Büküşoğlu, Emre; Cordova-Figueroa, Ubaldo M.; Abbott, Nicholas. L. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2017-10-17)
We report an investigation of the active motion of silica palladium Janus particles (JPs) adsorbed at interfaces formed between nematic liquid crystals (LCs) and aqueous phases containing hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). In comparison to isotropic oil aqueous interfaces, we observe the elasticity and anisotropic viscosity of the nematic phase to change qualitatively the active motion of the JPs at the LC interfaces. Although contact line pinning on the surface of the JPs is observed. to restrict out-of-plane rotat...
Encapsulated Hydrogels by E-beam Lithography and Their Use in Enzyme Cascade Reactions
Mancini, Rock J.; Paluck, Samantha J.; Bat, Erhan; Maynard, Heather D. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2016-04-26)
Electron beam (e-beam) lithography was employed to prepare one protein immobilized hydrogel encapsulated inside another by first fabricating protein-reactive hydrogels of orthogonal reactivity and subsequently conjugating the biomolecules. Exposure of thin films of eight arm star poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) functionalized with biotin (Biotin PEG), alkyne (Alkyne-PEG) or aminooxy (AO-PEG) end groups to e-beam radiation resulted in cross-linked hydrogels with the respective functionality. It was determined vi...
Industrial Ziegler-Type Hydrogenation Catalysts Made from Co(neodecanoate)(2) or Ni(2-ethylhexanoate)(2) and AlEt3: Evidence for Nanoclusters and Sub-Nanocluster or Larger Ziegler-Nanocluster Based Catalysis
Alley, William M.; Hamdemir, Isil K.; Wang, Qi; Frenkel, Anatoly I.; Li, Long; Yang, Judith C.; Menard, Laurent D.; Nuzzo, Ralph G.; Özkar, Saim; Yih, Kuang-Hway; Johnson, Kimberly A.; Finke, Richard G. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2011-05-17)
Ziegler-type hydrogenation catalysts are important for industrial processes, namely, the large-scale selective hydrogenation of styrenic block copolymers. Ziegler-type hydrogenation catalysts are composed of a group 8-10 transition metal precatalyst plus an alkylaluminum cocatalyst (and they are not the same as Ziegler-Natta polymerization catalysts). However, for similar to 50 years two unsettled issues central to Ziegler-type hydrogenation catalysis are the nature of the metal species present after cataly...
