Copper-manganese oxide catalysts are prepared with an atomic ratio of Cu/Mn=2/1 using a coprecipitation procedure under air atmosphere. The time of aging, i.e., the time that precipitate remains in contact with the precipitating medium, has been varied from 0 (for unaged precursor) to 300 minutes and the effect of precipitate aging time in each atmosphere upon the structure and morphology of di...

The results of these experiments are definite. There is, in the first place, a very striking difference with regard to precipitate formation between the acid and alkaline solutions of salvarsan when injected intravenously. Intravenous injections of alkaline solutions of salvarsan produce no precipitate in the blood, while injections of the acid solution nearly always give a precipitate. Further...

We present the case of a patient who delivered her baby through the perineal body with an intact vaginal introitus. Damage to the perineal body through its connection to the external anal sphincter can involve the rectovaginal septum with increased morbidity and thought to be linked to rectocele development.

A model for creep threshold stresses in alloys strengthened by coherent, misfitting precipitates is developed for the case where the precipitate is not sheared, and where there are elastic interactions between a dislocation and the precipitate over which it climbs. Calculations of the particle stress field due to a positive stiffness and lattice parameter mismatch between precipitate and matrix...

Acid mine drainage (AMD) is usually treated by air oxidation followed by addition of lime to precipitate metal hydroxides and calcium sulfate. Geo2 Limited of Melbourne, Australia, has developed and patented a novel alternative precipitation scheme based on the formation of mixed valency, M(II)-M(III), hydroxide sulfate salts. When the composition of AMD has an appropriate ratio of Fe(II):Fe(II...

Using a commercially available test for LDL cholesterol (Boehringer Mannheim), a method was developed for determination of LDL apolipoprotein B without using ultracentrifugation. The infranatant obtained by precipitation of serum with polyvinylsulphate was redissolved in a saline citrate solution and incubated with phospholipase A2, phospholipase C, phospholipase D or triglyceride lipase, respe...
