SBA-CaCl 2 (SCa) composites with high CaCl content were prepared using the non-functionalized and methyl-and carboxyl-functionalized mesoporous SBA-15 supports their thermochemical heat storage (TCHS) performance have been investigated a TG/DSC system coupled humidity generator. This paper presents influence of silica (SBA-15) functionalization on structural-textural properties SCa consequently...

BACKGROUND In practice, small bowel cancer is a rare entity. The most common histologic subtype is adenocarcinoma. Adenocarcinoma of the small bowel (SBA) is challenging to diagnose, often presents at a late stage and has a poor prognosis. The treatment of early-stage SBA is surgical resection. No standard protocol has been established for unresectable or metastatic disease. CASE PRESENTATION...

Nickel supported on SBA-15 doped with CeO2 catalysts (Ni-CeO2/SBA-15) was prepared, and used for steam reforming of toluene which was selected as a model compound of biomass gasification tar. A fixed-bed lab-scale set was designed and employed to evaluate the catalytic performances of the Ni-CeO2/SBA-15 catalysts. Experiments were performed to reveal the effects of several factors on the toluen...

Soybean agglutinin (SBA) was used as a differential reagent to achieve selective elimination of human breast cancer cells (T-47D cell line) from human marrow contaminated with tumor cells. Two successive cycles of direct agglutination by soluble SBA resulted in depletion of 3.5 logs of tumor cells as determined by radiolabeling, whereas removal of more than 4 logs of tumor cells was demonstrate...

While enzymes are valuable tools in many fields of biotechnology, they are fragile and must be protected against denaturing conditions such as unfavorable solution pH. Within living organisms, chaperonins help enzymes fold into their native shape and protect them from damage. Inspired by this natural solution, mesoporous silica SBA-15 with different pore diameters is synthesized as a support ma...

Set based analysis SBA produces good predictions about the behavior of functional and object oriented programs The analysis proceeds by inferring constraints that char acterize the data ow relationships of the analyzed program Experiences with Rice s program development environment which includes a static debugger based on SBA indicate that SBA can deal with programs of up to a couple of thousa...

Extensive trial-to-trial variability is a hallmark of most behavioral, cognitive, and physiological processes. Spontaneous brain activity (SBA), a ubiquitous phenomenon that coordinates levels and patterns of neuronal activity throughout the brain, may contribute to this variability by dynamically altering neuronal excitability. In freely-behaving male rats, we observed extensive variability of...

A novel hybrid material (SBA-P1) is prepared through the functionalization of mesoporous silica (SBA-15) with a 1,8-naphthalimide-based dye by sol-gel reaction. The characterization results of elemental analysis (EA), X-ray powder diffractometer (XRD) and spectroscopic methods demonstrate the fluorescence dye P1 is successfully grafted onto the inner surface of SBA-15 and the organized structur...

Working papers of the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland are preliminary materials circulated to stimulate discussion and critical comment on research in progress. They may not have been subject to the formal editorial review accorded official Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland publications.

Ordered mesoporous carbons with various structures, designated as CMK-1~5, have been synthesized by carbonization of sucrose, furfuryl alcohol or other suitable carbon sources inside silica or aluminosilicate mesopores that are interconnected into three-dimensional networks such as in MCM-48 (cubic Ia3d), SBA-1 (cubic Pm3n) and SBA-15 (hexagonal p6mm). The mesoporous carbon molecular sieves, ob...
