By combining experimental adsorption isotherms, microcalorimetric data, infrared spectroscopy and quantum chemical calculations the adsorption behaviour of the CPO-27/MOF-74 series (Ni, Co, Mg, Cu, and Zn) in the desulfurization of fuels is evaluated. The results show a clear influence of the metal ion on the adsorption capacity and affinity for S-heterocyclic compounds, with CPO-27(Ni) being t...

We strove to produce a microdiamond（MD）- copper composite by electroplating. Unfortunately, is naturally non-wetting with MD because of their chemical incompatibility. achieved modification the amino group for surface using photocatalytic treatment, followed electroplating copper. Results demonstrated that - material assisted photocatalysis markedly improved interfacial affinity and thermal con...

The isolation and sorting of cells has become an increasingly important step in chemical and biological analyses. As a unit operation in more complex analyses, isolating a phenotypically pure cell population from a heterogeneous sample presents unique challenges. Microfluidic systems are ideal platforms for performing cell separations, enabling integration with other techniques and enhancing tr...

in the present work, the quantum theoretical calculations of the molecular structure of the 1-(1, 3-benzothiazol-2-yl)-3-(thiophene-5-carbonyl) thiourea has been predicted and are evaluated using density functional theory (dft) in gas phase. the geometry of the title compound was optimized by b3lyp/6-311+g and b3lyp/6-311+g* methods and the experimental geometrical parameters of the title compo...

The interactions of epothilone analogs with the paclitaxel binding site of microtubules were studied. The influence of chemical modifications in the C15 side chain and in C12 on binding affinity and microtubule elongation was characterized. Modifications favorable for binding affinity are (1). a thiomethyl group at C21 of the thiazole side chain, (2). a methyl group at C12 in S configuration, (...

polymorphisms in the β subunit of the high affinity receptor for ige (fcεriβ) and interferon-γ (ifn-γ) genes may influence the risk of asthma. however, the results in asian population are still debatable. we performed a meta-analysis to ascertain the association between the fcεriβ e237g, fcεriβ -109c/t, and ifn-γ 874t/a polymorphisms and asthma in an asian population. databases including pubmed...
