Objective(s): This study aimed to evaluate the potential role of hydrogen in rats after cerebral ischemic/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Materials and Methods: The experimental samples were composed of sham group, model group of rats that received middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) for 2 hr followed by reperfusion for 24 hr, and the hydr...

abstract statement of problem: bleaching systems with different concentrations and applications are widely used to improve the visual appearance of the teeth, but one of the complications of these materials is reduction of bond strength for immediately bonding to the bleached enamel. objectives: the aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of using different modified hydrogen peroxide bl...

Crystallographic data analyses indicate that  three types of prolinium cations, along with two types of hydrogen  bonding,  produce and stabilize the helical structure of  triprolinium 12-phosphomolybdate. There are similarities between this organic-inorganic compound and peptides/proteins. The stronger “conventional” hydrogen bonds and the less common C-H…O attractions play critical roles in g...

A survey on organisms able to use molecular hydrogen as electron donor in the energy-yielding process is presented. In the group of the aerobic hydrogen-oxidizing bacteria so far two types of hydrogenases have been encountered, a NAD-reducing, soluble enzyme (H2 : NAD oxidoreductase) and a membrane-bound enzyme unable to reduce pyridine nucleotides. With respect to the distribution of both type...

a fragment of histidine rich protein ii (hrp ii 215-236) was investigated by 14n and 17o electric field gradient, efg, tensor calculations using dft. this study is intended to explore the differences between 310-helix and α-helix of hrpii both in the gas phase and in solution. to achieve the aims, the 17o and 14n nqr parameters of a fragment of hrpii (215-236) for both structures are calculated...

storage of hydrogen is one of the key challenges in developing hydrogen economy. magnesium hydride (mgh2) is an attractive candidate for solid-state hydrogen storage for on-board applications. in this study, 10 wt.% zrb2 was co-milled with magnesium hydride at different milling times to produce nanocrystalline composite powder. the effect of milling time and additive on the hydrogen desorption ...

in this study, the modeling of hydrogen production process in microreactors by methanol-steam reforming reaction is investigated. the catalytic reaction of methanol-steam reforming producing hydrogen is simulated considering a 3d geometry for the microreactor. to calculate diffusion among species, mixture average correlations are compared to stephan-maxwell equations. the reactions occurring in...

Fermentation of sugars for hydrogen production has received increasing interest as a “green fuel” process. Models describing products formation from sugar fermentation has been the focus, applied to generalize anaerobic digestion models. Such models have therefore been in continuous development. Beginning from fixed stoichiometry values as in ADM1 [1] (the most common platform in anaerobic dige...
