An Individually Optimized Protocol of Contrast Medium Injection in Enhanced CT Scan for Liver Imaging

Objective To investigate the effectiveness of a new individualized contrast medium injection protocol for enhanced liver CT scan. Methods 324 patients who underwent plain and dual phase enhanced liver CT were randomly assigned to 2 groups: G1 (n = 224, individualized contrast medium injection protocol); G2 (n = 100, standard contrast medium injection with a dose of 1.5 ml/kg). CT values and Δ...

Alkyl surface modification of nanoporous silica SBA-15 by click chemistry to obtain triazole products

In this study, Santa Barbara Amorphous (SBA-15) mesoporous silica has been functionalized with aminopropyl groups that were converted to propargyl-bearing moieties through the reaction with propargyl bromide. The material then underwent an efficient Cu(I)-catalyzed azide alkyne click reaction with sodium azide in order to obtain the corresponding triazole products. The covalent modification of ...
