in this paper, the effect of surface area of reaction layers in gas diffusion electrodes on oxygen reduction reaction was investigated. for this purpose, various amounts (0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 1, 1.5 and zero %wt of total loading of reaction layer) of single walled carbon nanotube (swcnt) were inserted in the reaction layer. the performance of gas diffusion electrodes for oxygen reduction re...

Introduction Perigraft fluid collection (PFC) is a common complication after kidney transplant. Its etiology is not clear and not all the causes have been identified. The influence of the type of donor has never been evaluated. Our aim was to compare the incidence, severity and management of PFC in recipients of grafts from uncontrolled donors after circulatory death (DCD) with normothermic ext...

PURPOSE To present the 24-month radiological follow-up data for patients with pararenal aortic pathologies treated with chimney and periscope grafts during endovascular repair. METHODS Between January 2008 and December 2011, 124 high-risk patients with complex pararenal aortic pathologies were treated using the chimney technique at 2 European vascular and cardiovascular centers with advanced ...

sulfonic acid functionalized sba-15 (sba-pr-so3h) with pore size 6 nm as an efficient heterogeneous nanoporous solid acid catalyst exhibited good catalytic activity in the biginelli-like reaction in the synthesis of spiroheterobicyclic rings with good yield and good recyclability. spiro-pyrimidinethiones/spiro-pyrimidinones-barbituric acid derivatives were synthesized in a simple and efficient ...

silica-grafted n-propyl-diaza-15-crown-5 (sgpdc) with immobilized palladium nanoparticles was found as an efficient heterogeneous catalytic system for the heck and suzuki coupling reactions and satisfied results were obtained. different derivatives of aryl halides and alkenes under the heck reaction were converted to the corresponding products with good efficiency. the presence of electron-dona...

Detailed chemical kinetic modeling of gas-phase reactions can result in automatically generated mechanisms that contain thousands of reactions. In this paper, we describe the development of a rule-based expert system tool that organizes these reactions into classes such as hydrogen abstraction and beta scission. We have developed 29 simple classification rules, 20 complex (well-skipping) classi...

1 RuleML is a family of XML languages whose modular system of schemas permits high-precision (Web) rule interchange. The family’s top-level distinction is deliberation rules vs. reaction rules. In this paper we address the Reaction RuleML subfamily of RuleML and survey related work. Reaction RuleML is a standardized rule markup/serialization language and semantic interchange format for reaction...

anaphylactic reactions can occur following the adminstration of muscle relaxants. however, it happens very rarefy wish pancuronium bromide. a case report of anaphylactic shock to pancuronium bromide, which is supported by a highly poitive skin prick test, is reported.

background neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial malignant solid tumor in children under 5 years, and it is characterized by wide clinical and biological heterogeneity. n-myc oncogene amplification is considered to be one of the most important prognostic factors used to evaluate survival in these patients. objectives the aim of our study was to determine amplification of the n-myc oncog...
