Description

General description

Magnesium acetate tetrahydrate serves as a precursor for the generation of magnesium oxide and magnesium-containing oxides in the forms of thin-film, rode, and porous particles with a high specific surface area.

Application

Magnesium acetate tetrahydrate has been used:

as a precursor in the synthesis of MgCrMnO₄ using a sol-gel method
as a component of stock solution, buffer 1, buffer 2 and buffer 3 for microsome extraction
as a precursor in the synthesis of MgCr_2-xMnxO₄ spinels using aqueous sol-gel reaction

Solid-phase colorimetric sensing probe for bromide based on a tough hydrogel embedded with silver nanoprisms.

Sang Heon Kim et al.

Analytica chimica acta, 1131, 80-89 (2020-09-16)

Sharp-tipped anisotropic silver (Ag) nanostructures are attracting increasing attention because of their unusual optical properties. However, the sharp tips make such nanostructures thermodynamically unstable; thus, they have been considered unsuitable for use in colorimetric sensing because of their tendency to

Overall Structures of Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA Gyrase Reveal the Role of a Corynebacteriales GyrB-Specific Insert in ATPase Activity.

Stéphanie Petrella et al.

Structure (London, England : 1993), 27(4), 579-589 (2019-02-13)

Despite sharing common features, previous studies have shown that gyrases from different species have been modified throughout evolution to modulate their properties. Here, we report two crystal structures of Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA gyrase, an apo and AMPPNP-bound form at 2.6-Å

A class III chitinase without disulfide bonds from the fern, Pteris ryukyuensis: crystal structure and ligand-binding studies.

Yoshihito Kitaoku et al.

Planta, 242(4), 895-907 (2015-05-23)

We first solved the crystal structure of class III catalytic domain of a chitinase from fern (PrChiA-cat), and found a structural difference between PrChiA-cat and hevamine. PrChiA-cat was found to have reduced affinities to chitin oligosaccharides and allosamidin. Plant class
