Since IMA is an LEF (Linear Electric Field) TOF mass spectrometer (Yokota et al., 2005), incident ions are converted to positively charged particles, negatively charged particles or neutral particles when they pass through the thin carbon foil inside the analyzer.
In a recent study, GO was modified with 2,3-dimethylmaleic anhydride (DA), which is negatively charged under physiological pH at 7.4 and could be rapidly converted into positively charged moiety in a slightly acidic environment (pH 6.8).
PADIs are a family of posttranslational modification enzymes that convert positively charged arginine residues on substrate proteins to neutrally charged citrulline, and this activity is alternatively called citrullination or deimination.
The targeted epitopes are generated by a post-translational modification catalysed by the calcium-dependent enzyme peptidyl arginine deiminase (PAD), which converts positively charged arginine to polar but uncharged citrulline.
The manganese dioxide is synthesized by a microemulsion route using the cationic surfactant hexadecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide, which dispersed in water is converted to be positively charged.
The results that were expressed as percentages of the positively stained inflammatory cells were converted to the following scoring system for comparisons in the statistical analysis: 1 = ≤10% positive cells, 2 = 11 25% positively stained cells, 3 = 26 75% positive cells, and 4 = >75% positively stained cells.
The ERF-associated amphiphilic repressor motif (EAR/SRDX; [ 35]) has been used to convert positively-acting transcription factors into dominant repressors.
Zinc cations (i.e., positively charged zinc atoms) present in the electrolyte are converted by the current into regular zinc atoms, which deposit on the strip.
In order words, H atom donates excess electrons while being the positively ionized donor ion in a-IGZO and is finally converted to - OH or - O2-H+.
It is converted in vivo to various derivatives, including the positively charged colistin base, which is the active form with antibacterial activity.
