Reflection mode diffraction tomography.

Abstract

A reconstruction algorithm is presented which possesses a simple scanning geometry and promises higher resolution than conventional transmission mode diffraction tomography algorithms. This broad-band reflection mode algorithm inherently lacks a certain amount of low frequency information but an estimate of the information is recovered by spectral extrapolation. The resolution of the algorithm will be shown to be limited by the bandwidth and physical size of the single plane wave transducer, as well as the Born approximation.

Molecular orbital study on the glutathione-dependent detoxication of ozonides.

The present paper describes a theoretical study on the mechanism underlying the reaction of cellular glutathione (GSH) with polyunsaturated fatty acid ozonides. The reaction can be catalyzed by glutathione S-transferases and leads to detoxication of the ozonides. Semi-empirical molecular orbital computer calculations suggest that the reaction of glutathione with ozonides involves a nucleophilic attack at one of the carbon atoms of the ozonide ring, instead of at one of the peroxidic oxygen atoms of the ozonide ring. This implies a mechanism different from that of the glutathione S-transferase-mediated reaction with hydroperoxides, previously proposed for the glutathione-dependent detoxication of fatty acid ozonides.
