The occurrence of 2-keto-3-deoxy-D-manno-octonic acid (KDO) in lipopolysaccharides (LPS) of Vibrio parahaemolyticus was demonstrated for the first time by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry after dephosphorylation, reduction, and methylation. KDO was virtually completely phosphorylated, since no KDO was detected by either gas chromatography or thiobarbituric acid assay before dephosphorylatio...

compressibility factor and viscosity of natural gasses are of great importance in petroleum and chemical engineering. to calculate the natural gas properties in the pipelines, storage systems and reservoirs, the exact values of gas compressibility factor and viscosity are required. a new method that allows accurate determination of compressibility factor and gas viscosity for all types of: swee...

Plasma acid is an acidic solution simply produced from water and a carrier gas in an electrical discharge. These produced solutions are of high value for biological decontamination and industrial pollutant abatement applications. While several electrical discharges have been shown to produce plasma acid, the subject of this study is the gliding arc plasmatron, a rotating gliding arc discharge. ...

Production of renewable commodity chemicals from bio-oil derived from fast pyrolysis of biomass has received considerable interests, but hindered by the presence of innumerable components in bio-oil. In present work, we proposed and experimentally demonstrated an innovative approach combining atmospheric distillation of bio-oil with co-pyrolysis for mass production of renewable chemicals from b...

Heterosigma akashiwo is an excellent candidate for growth on industrial emissions since this alga has the ability to metabolize gaseous nitric oxide (NO) into cellular nitrogen via a novel chimeric protein (NR2-2/2HbN) and also tolerates wide fluctuations in temperature, salinity, and nutrient conditions. Here, we evaluated biomass productivity and composition, photosynthetic efficiency, and ex...

the effect of three levels (0, 28.65, 57.31mg /200mg substrate) of golpar (heracleum persicum: hp) on in vitro rumen ecosystem and on methane production was assessed. gas production (gp) was recorded from 1 to 54h past of incubation. the parameters studied were in vitro gas production (ivgp), methane production, ammonia-n concentration (nh3-n), in vitro organic matter degradability (ivomde), pa...

production ofdimethyl amino ethanol (dmae) and effective parameters on efficiency and purity of the chemical were studied in this article. dimethylation of ethanol amine using aqueous formaldehyde in the presence of formic acid was applied for production of dmae. results showed that four parameters such as outlet temperature of co2 gas, reflux temperature, reflux time and extraction solvent wer...
