Stirring Lewis-basic transition metal complexes with the salts M[BAr(Cl)4] (M = Ag, Tl; Ar(Cl) = 3,5-C6H3Cl2) resulted in the formation of diplatinum complexes [{(Cy3P)2Pt}2(μ-Ag)][BAr(Cl)4] (3) and [{(Cy3P)2Pt}2(μ-Tl)][BAr(Cl)4] (4) and the diiron compound [{(OC)3(Me3P)2Fe}2(μ-Ag)] (5) featuring bridging, unsupported metal cations. Their properties were investigated by multinuclear NMR spectro...

in the present study, micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration (meuf) was used to remove manganese (mn) (ii) from synthetic wastewater. the effects of different operational conditions on the filtration performance of meuf or the membrane were studied. it was found that the transmembrane pressure has a major influence on the permeate flux and an insignificant effect on the rejection coefficient. the pe...

Precise transfer of three-dimensional position of dental implants from oral cavity to the cast needs special considerations in impression making. It has been suggested to splint the copings by bars or acrylic resin material before making impression. Some problems regarding to polymerization shrinkage of acrylic resin have been reported. In this study, we describe a metalacrylic bar tha...

Background: The choice of connector lies between plate, a bar or a combination of bars, which may cross the palate in various positions. Many opinions have been expressed concerning the acceptability to the patients of the various forms of palatal connectors but there have been few investigations. Objectives: The aim of this study is to compare subjective patients’ reactions to three maxillary ...

PURPOSE Increasing use of implantable bars for minimally invasive pectus excavatum repair has introduced metal allergy (nickel and chromium) to pediatric surgeons. Metal allergy is a well-recognized entity in neurologic, orthopedic, and craniofacial surgery. This study was performed to evaluate metal allergy and its effects on treatment with the Nuss procedure in 862 patients. METHODS After i...

Surgical correction of pectus excavatum deformity with the use of a metal bar strut provides a good cosmetic result with a low complication rate. Reports of pectus bar migration are rare but we report three cases of bar migration which required thoracoscopic removal.

We report the structure, performance and large-area fabrication of a thin plasmonic infrared absorber, termed "bar-shaped disk-coupled dots-on-pillar antenna-array" (bar-D2PA). The bar-D2PAs, which are simple to fabricate, demonstrate the following, experimentally: (i) a different light-absorption resonance for each polarization with the resonance peak tunable by the bar-to-backplane gap and th...

A new route to cationic complexes of Mg, Ca, Sr and Ba with 18-membered ring O4S2, O4Se2 and O2S4 donor macrocycles from metal acetonitrile complexes with weakly coordinating [BAr(F)](-) anions is described. The precursors used were [M(MeCN)x][BAr(F)]2 (M = Mg, x = 6; M = Ca, x = 8) and [M'(acacH)(MeCN)5][BAr(F)]2 (M' = Sr or Ba). Reaction of these with the heterocrowns, [18]aneO4S2 (1,4,10,13-...
