Biodiesel Synthesis: Influence of Alkaline Catalysts in Methanol-Oil Dispersion by José G. Rocha Jr. (4618267)

“…K-containing catalysts were more active than their Na analogues due to higher adsorption of K+ in the methanol-oil interface and the higher production of methyl esters (which act as emulsifying agents), which promote a more favorable interfacial tension. The alkaline cation effect was more significant in the dispersion step than in the methanolysis step.…”

Data_Sheet_1_Ascorbic Acid-Induced Photosynthetic Adaptability of Processing Tomatoes to Salt Stress Probed by Fast OJIP Fluorescence Rise.xlsx by Xianjun Chen (5711882)

“…Lower K- and L-bands and higher I-band were detected on the OJIP transient curves compared, respectively, with salt-stressed plants with and without LYC. AsA application also significantly increased the values of normalized total complementary area (S_m), relative variable fluorescence intensity at the I-step (V_I), absorbed light energy (ABS/CS_m), excitation energy (TR_o/CS_m), and reduction energy entering the electron transfer chain beyond Q_A (ET_o/CS_m) per reaction centre (RC) and electron transport flux per active RC (ET_o/RC), while decreasing some others like the approximated initial slope of the fluorescence transient (M_o), relative variable fluorescence intensity at the K-step (V_K), average absorption (ABS/RC), trapping (TR_o/RC), heat dissipation (DI_o/RC) per active RC, and heat dissipation per active RC (DI_o/CS_m) in the presence or absence of LYC. …”
