this study was done to investigate the nutritive value of festocaovina, agrostisgiganta and avena sativa using sheep rumen and feces liquor as sources of micro-organism through gas production method. rumen and feces liquor were collected from three fistulated sheep. rangeland species sampling was randomly conducted from different areas of guilan province. all the collected samples were initiall...

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were functionalized with salicylic acid (SA). The copper-cobalt catalyst was impregnated on the SA functionalized MWCNTs (SA-MWCNTs). The catalyst copper-cobalt/SA-MWCNTs was used to catalyze the synthesis of alcohols from synthesis gas. Salicylic acid can promote the synthesis of ethanol and butanol from synthesis gas, thus reducing the synthesis of methan...

The action of mustard gas on six animal, one plant, and two bacterial viruses; also on bacteria, yeast, and the pneumococcus-transforming principle has been studied. The viruses include Newcastle's disease of chickens, equine encephalomyelitis (Eastern strain), feline pneumonitis (Baker), rabbit papilloma (Shope), fixed rabies, rabbit myxoma, tobacco mosaic, T(2)r(+) phage of E. coli B, and a S...

The interaction of formaldehyde with Pt/TiO2 and Au/TiO2 catalysts was investigated at 300–473 K by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The effects of the pretreatments and the metal content of the catalysts, as well as the effects of the reaction temperature on the formation of the surface species and on the gas phase products were studied. Molecularly adsorbed forma...

Mycolic acids were detected in both reference strains and clinical isolates of mycobacteria using gas chromatography of fatty acid methyl esters prepared by acid methanolysis. The methyl esters were extracted with hexane, concentrated, and analyzed with a gas chromatograph by using two different injector temperatures. When the samples were analyzed at high injector temperatures of 300 to 350 de...

Bipod nettle Utrica dioica L has therapeutic properties in treatment of human chronic diseases such as anemia, joints pain and skin diseases. In this research the major components of extracts in different parts of plant (root, stem and leaf) were identified by gas chromatography (GC) apparatus. Twenty compounds were identified, the most important of which were Neophytadiene (25.21%), Phtaleic a...

The development of selective and cheap metal oxide gas sensor at ambient temperature is still a challenging idea. In this study, SnO2 surface functionalization was performed in order to obtain sensitive and selective gas sensor operated at ambient temperature. 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) was used as an intermediate step, followed by functionalization with molecules having acyl chloride...

Thin films of stable metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) such as UiO-66 have enormous application potential, for instance in microelectronics. However, all-gas-phase deposition techniques are currently not available for such MOFs. We here report on thin-film deposition of the thermally and chemically stable UiO-66 in an all-gas-phase process by the aid of atomic layer deposition (ALD). Sequential r...

The gill is widely accepted to have played a key role in the adaptive radiation of early vertebrates by supplanting the skin as the dominant site of gas exchange. However, in the most basal extant craniates, the hagfishes, gills play only a minor role in gas exchange. In contrast, we found hagfish gills to be associated with a tremendous capacity for acid-base regulation. Indeed, Pacific hagfis...

Buchet, J. P., and Lauwerys, R. R. (1973). British Journal ofIndustrial Medicine, 30, 125-128. Measurement of urinary hippuric and m-methylhippuric acids by gas chromatography. A gas chromatographic method for the determination of hippuric and m-methylhippuric acids in urine is described. A known amount of heptadecanoic acid (internal standard) is added to the urine before its extraction with e...
