Characterization and Evaluation of Light Hydrocarbon in Northwestern Iranian Crude Oil by Detailed Hydrocarbon Analysis (D.H.A)Gas Chromatography

Lighthydrocarbons are commonly used to evaluatecrude oils to determine oil families in reservoirs undergone some kind of alteration process. In this study crude oil contentsfromNorthwestern IranDelta (samples A, B and C)were analyzed in order to evaluate the IranDelta petroleum system independent of higher molecular weight markers. Ultra high resolution gas chromatography was used in separation...

An assessment of hydrocarbon species in the methanol-to-hydrocarbon reaction over a ZSM-5 catalyst.

A ZSM-5 catalyst is examined in relation to the methanol-to-hydrocarbon (MTH) reaction as a function of reaction temperature and time-on-stream. The reaction profile is characterised using in-line mass spectrometry. Furthermore, the material contained within a catch-pot downstream from the reactor is analysed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. For a fixed methanol feed, reaction condit...

Characterization of bacteriocins from two strains of Bacillus thermoleovorans, a thermophilic hydrocarbon-utilizing species.

Bacillus thermoleovorans S-II and B. thermoleovorans NR-9 produce bacteriocins, and these bacteriocins are designated thermoleovorin-S2 and thermoleovorin-N9, respectively. The bacteriocins are effective against all but the producing strain of B. thermoleovorans, as well as being effective against Salmonella typhimurium, Branhamella catarrhalis, Streptococcus faecalis, and Thermus aquaticus. Th...

Characterization of the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor and Aryl Hydrocarbon Responsiveness in Human Ovarian Carcinoma Cell Lines1

The human ovarian carcinoma cell lines PE01, PE04, and PE06 express the estrogen receptor and studies with the PE04 cells have shown that tamoxifen inhibits 17ß-estradiol-induced proliferation. 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is a broad spectrum antiestrogen which works through the aryl hydrocarbon receptor. Incubation of the three cell lines with | 'II11 ( 1)1) followed by isolatio...
