Magnetic, Mössbauer, and I.R. studies of nanosize particles of Fe and Co species dispersed in a cage of aluminosilicates structure, in relation to syngas (CO+H2) Fischer Tropsch conversion. The difference in the catalytic activity of such species have shown dependancy on their degree of dispersion. The carbonyl impregnation gave ultra-fine Super Paramagnetic Fe3O4, whereas the nitrate impregnat...

The functional and morphological changes in the pituitary gland caused by a GHRH-producing pancreatic islet cell tumor that metastasized to the pituitary and caused somatotroph hyperplasia are described. A 52-yr-old woman presented with loss of visual acuity, diabetes insipidus, and acromegaly caused by a GHRH-producing endocrine carcinoma metastasized to the pituitary. The serum GHRH, GH, and ...

The Al, Zr, and Ti modified MCM-41 materials were prepared by the post-synthesis method, and then the Ni-W species were introduced on them by using the co-impregnation method in order to obtain high-performance hydrodenitrogenation (HDN) catalysts. The activity of the catalysts was evaluated by the HDN reaction of quinoline. The optimum HDN activity was observed on the catalyst sup...

Supported WOx/SiO2 catalysts were investigated for propylene metathesis as a function of tungsten oxide loading and temperature. The catalysts were synthesized by incipient-wetness impregnation of an aqueous ammonium metatungstate solution onto the silica support and calcined at elevated temperatures to form the supported tungsten oxide phase. In situ Raman spectroscopy under dehydrated conditi...

background: flat urothelial lesions comprise a spectrum of morphologic changes ranging from reactive atypia to carcinoma in situ (cis). urothelial dysplasia and cis are associated with the recurrence and progression of urothelial carcinoma. distinguishing cis and dysplasia from reactive atypia based on histolopathogical features alone is often difficult. using different immunohistochemical mark...

knowledge of the orientation of horizontal in situ stresses is important to some areas of oil and gas field development plans. borehole breakouts observed in image logs and drilling-induced fractures are the main parameters for the determination of the stresses’ directions in situ. in this work, the orientations of borehole breakouts were investigated as a function of depth in oil wells a and b...

the present study deals with development of a floating in-situ gel of the narrow absorption window drug baclofen. sodium alginate-based in-situ gelling systems were prepared by dissolving various concentrations of sodium alginate in deionized water, to which varying concentrations of drug and calcium bicarbonate were added. fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ftir) and differential scannin...

purpose : to assess the outcomes of laser in situ keratomileusis (lasik) in patients with multiple sclerosis (ms) methods : 15 eyes of 8 patients with ms (2 men and 6 women) who referred for myopia treatment (with or without astigmatism) were undergone lasik. after refractive and visual acuity examinations, topographic and pachymetry screening, intraocular pressure (iop) measurement, biomicrosc...
