The hybridization of DNA by sequential electrostatic and hydrogen-bonding immobilization of single-stranded complementary oligonucleotides at the air-water interface with cationic Langmuir monolayers is demonstrated. The complexation of the single-stranded DNA molecules with octadecylamine (ODA) Langmuir monolayers was followed in time by monitoring the pressure-area isotherms. A large (and slow) expansion of the ODA monolayer was observed during each stage of complexation in the following sequence: primary single-stranded DNA followed by complementary single-stranded DNA followed by the intercalator, ethidium bromide. Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films of the ODA-DNA complex were formed on different substrates and characterized using quartz-crystal microgravimetry (QCM), Fourier transform infrared …

Sensory texture characteristics of cooked rice were predicted using an extrusion test and a novel multivariate analysis method. Eleven sensory texture characteristics were evaluated via a trained descriptive panel and predicted for force/deformation spectra with partial least squares regression. Only four sensory attributes—adhesion to lips (Rcal = 0.83), cohesion of bolus (Rcal = 0.78), cohesiveness (Rcal = 0.69), and hardness (Rcal = 0.72)—were successfully predicted from instrumental measurements.
