Dielectric relaxation data covering a temperature range from above room temperature to below the glass transition for 40% (w/w) and 75% (w/w) glucose/water solutions in the frequency range between 5 and 13 MHz are presented. These data are used to obtain correlation times for the dielectric relaxation in the viscous liquid and the glass and are compared with correlation times determined from deuterium nuclear spin relaxation times [J. Chem. Phys., 110 (1999) 3472-3483]. The two sets of results have the same temperature dependence, but differ in magnitude by a factor of 3, implying that the relaxation is a small-step rotational diffusion. Both the structural relaxation (alpha process) and the slow beta process are present. In the 40% glucose/water sample, there is a dielectric relaxation attributable to the ice that forms at low temperature. It is shown that the reciprocal of the viscosity, the correlation time derived from the dielectric relaxation, and the dc conductivity have a similar dependence on temperature.
The dielectric properties of 12 kbp plasmid DNA have been measured as a function of temperature in the range 5 degrees C to 40 degrees C. Time domain reflectometry was used to obtain dielectric data over the frequency range from 200 kHz to 3 GHz. Values of the frequency dependent polarisability per DNA macromolecule have been determined from the measurements. Possible mechanisms that could account for the dielectric dispersion are also discussed, in particular the counterion fluctuation model of Manning-Mandel-Oosawa.
We present three mechanisms by which Na(+) inhibits the open channel currents of the predominant K(+) channel in the tonoplast of Chara corallina: (i) Fast block, i.e., short (100 ns range) interruptions of the open channel current which are determined by open channel noise analysis, (ii): Oligo-subconductance mode, i.e., a gating mode which occurs preferentially in the presence of Na(+); this mode comprises a discrete number (here 3) of open states with smaller conductances than normal, and (iii): Polysubconductance mode, i.e., a gating mode with a nondiscrete, large number (>30) of states with smaller conductances than the main open channel conductance. This novel mode has also been observed only in the presence of Na(+).
