Altering equilibrium conditions by increasing oxygen concentration tended to increase conversion as well as increase the percentage of acetaldehyde produced.
Abnormalities in B cell subsets, with altered equilibrium between earlier and later steps of maturation and activation processes, have never been described in HHV-8 infected patients; we suggest that these observations may open the way to a better understanding of the role of inflammation and immunity in the control of gammaherpesvirus infections and their neoplastic outcomes.
After a few minutes of experiencing a natural concentration mix of octanoic and hexanoic acids, D. melanogaster wild-type Berlin flies fed a standard diet showed general restlessness and altered equilibrium with incorrect positioning of tarsi, followed by slowness in movement until complete immobilization.
These changes are mediated by an excess of activity resulting from an increased expression of the active form of the proteases, and/or from an altered equilibrium between the proteases and their inhibitors in inflamed synovial membrane and synovial fluids (SF) [ 1- 4].
Of course, a change in the efficiency of producing a metabolite could alter this equilibrium.
Investigation of the role of individual tear proteins revealed significant differences in their ability to alter the equilibrium between matrix-held and eluate-held dye or drug.
In 2010 NATO's top officer in Europe, James Stavridis, an American admiral, gave warning that "for now, the disputes in the north have been dealt with peacefully, but climate change could alter the equilibrium".
"A major dislocation in the social structure -- love, hate, peace, war, urbanization, overpopulation, economic depression, people having so much leisure they sleep with five different people a night -- whatever it is that puts a stress on the ecological system, can alter the equilibrium between man and microbes," Krause says.
It is clear that collagen synthesis and degradation are influenced by mechanical loading, and collagenous tissues have a remarkable built-in ability to alter the equilibrium between material formation and breakdown.
It is shown that solution chemistry can have a strong influence on the stress state; and conversely, the stress state may significantly alter the equilibrium conditions at the phase boundary and the driving forces for phase boundary migration.
