Oxidation of Cr(III) and reduction of Cr(VI) can occur simultaneously in aerobic soils, but the mechanisms involved are not well-understood, especially how electron shuttling by redox-active organic acids is involved. A and B soil horizons from three topohydrosequences from the Coastal Plain and Piedmont physiographic provinces of Maryland were chosen to investigate oxidation-reduction transfor...

Aerobic capacity/fitness significantly impacts susceptibility for fatty liver and diabetes, but the mechanisms remain unknown. Herein, we utilized rats selectively bred for high (HCR) and low (LCR) intrinsic aerobic capacity to examine the mechanisms by which aerobic capacity impacts metabolic vulnerability for fatty liver following a 3-day high-fat diet (HFD). Indirect calorimetry assessment o...

The catalyst palladium/2,9-CD3-phenanthroline has a 1.8 times higher turnover number than its non-deuterated counterpart in the aerobic alcohol oxidation of methyl glucoside and allows the regioselective oxidation with dioxygen as the terminal oxidant.

We have previously described the rates of oxidation for long-chain fatty acids and glucose in stunned myocardium during early reflow after moderately severe regional ischemia. The purpose of these studies was to characterize the rates of pyruvate and lactate oxidation during comparable periods of reflow. In the main protocol, pyruvate oxidation was defined at two conditions of coronary flow and...

The aerobic oxidation of sulfite thus provides a magnified manometric response to the chain initiating event. Advantage was taken of this circumstance to develop an ultrasensitive assay for milk xanthine oxidase (5). The data obtained were consistent with the hypothesis that xanthine oxidase, when acting on purine substrates, initiates the aerobic oxidation of sulfite by the generation of free ...

An efficient synthetic method for successful synthesis of amine denderon on SBA-15 and related Pd (II) complex has been developed. This modified mesoporous material was characterized by various techniques such as TEM, XRD, atomic absorption spectroscopy, N2 adsorption-desorption, and FT-IR. The catalytic activities of the prepared catalysts were investigated by employing aerobic oxidation of al...

By coupling of Fe2O3@SiO2 particles with metal organic Framework (MOF) the magnetic MOF structure was fabricated. Precipitation and hydrothermal methods were applied for synthesis of core and MOF. Silver nanoparticles were deposited on nickel based metal organic framework surface and magnetic Fe2O3@SiO2@MOF@Ag was obtained. Because of strong coupling between silver nanoparticles and metal organ...
