Dynamic modeling and simulation of fixed bed adsorption process was carried out by explaining the behavior of breakthrough curve parameter. Adsorption of sulfur compound, present in road fuel, has posed a great challenge. A model of fixed bed adsorption of benzothiophene from fuel was formulated with non-ideal plug flow behavior and considered velocity variation along a column. The model was so...

Solution-processable [1]benzothieno[3,2-b]benzothiophene (BTBT) derivatives with various end-capping groups, 2-(phenylethynyl)benzo[b]benzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]thiophene (Compound 1), 2-octyl-7-(5-(phenylethynyl)thiophen-2-yl)benzo[b]benzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]thiophene 2), and triisopropyl((5-(7-octylbenzo[b]benzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-d]thiophen-2-yl)thiophen-2-yl)ethynyl)silane 3), have been synthesized c...

The pharmacological preservation of bone in the ovariectomized rat by estrogen, selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs), and bisphosphonates has been well described. However, comprehensive molecular analysis of the effects of these pharmacologically diverse antiresorptive agents on gene expression in bone has not been performed. This study used DNA microarrays to analyze RNA from the pro...
