Ligand/antibody to study contact inhibition of proliferation?

08 August 2018 0 6K Report

Hi,

I am trying to find any protocol, where people have studied/observed contact inhibition of proliferation, upon the addition of any ligand/antibody. Do you know of any such protocol/study? TIA.

Why don't d-orbitals split themselves, why does it take a ligand? why don't protons from ligand repel nucleus split d-orbitals?

why don't d-orbitals split themselves because of themselves without the presence of ligands? Electrons are indistinguishable. Why wouldn't it be more correct that protons from a ligand split the...

Why doesn't chromium 2+ ion use all its d-orbitals to receive lone pairs from six waters in [Cr(H20)6)]3+?

I'm guessing it's because the ligand experiences too much electron repulsion or proton repulsion from the chromium to insert them close to the 3d-orbitals which are close to the metal nucleus. Is...
