Chlorosome proteins studied by MALDI-TOF-MS: topology of CsmA in Chlorobium tepidum.

abstract：:Water vapor was added differentially to the gas streams entering the cells of three makes of differential infrared carbon dioxide analysers. Analyser deflections were compared with those expected from dilution of the carbon dioxide by the additional gas. Tests were made at 0, 365, and 730 cm(3) m(-3) concentrations of...
