Materials of steam water cycles can suffer from corrosion induced by halide anions in feedwater. Organic halogen compounds in feedwater can be degraded and release halide anions under high temperature and pressure. Therefore it is necessary to be able to measure the organic halogen concentration. Existing measurements including Adsorbable Organic Halogens and Gas Chromatography are either not c...

Many marine algae are strong accumulators of halogens. Commercial iodine production started by burning seaweeds in the 19th century. The high content certain has potential pharmaceutical and nutritional applications. While metabolism brown is linked to oxidative metabolism, with iodide serving function an inorganic antioxidant protecting cell thallus surface against reactive oxygen species impl...

Background: Mycophenolate Mofetil (MMF) is widely used in organ transplant patients to avoid calcineurine inhibittor-associated side effects. Therapeutic monitoring of MMF is up to now perform by using trough level measurements (measurements before drug administration). The present study was designed to characterize potential differences in MMF absorption kinetics between patients with allogeni...

Halogens produced by ocean biological and photochemical processes reach the tropical tropopause layer (TTL), where cold temperatures and the prevailing low ozone abundances favor the diurnal photochemical enhancement of halogen atoms. Under these conditions atomic bromine and iodine are modeled to be the dominant inorganic halogen species in the sunlit TTL, surpassing the abundance of the commo...

We examined the effects of halogens on the production of salinosporamide A (NPI-0052) by the obligate marine actinomycete Salinispora tropica NPS465, specifically the production of analogs containing halogens other than chlorine. Adding NaF, NaBr and NaI directly to the production medium prepared in seawater containing 3% NaCl did not induce the production of the corresponding analogs. Replacin...

Recently, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology has been introduced into magnetic resonant coupling (MRC) enabled wireless power transfer (WPT) systems for concurrent charging of multiple devices. However, impedance mismatching phenomena caused by strong TX-RX, TX-TX, or RX-RX greatly affect the delivered to load (PDL) in practical systems. To solve this issue, we propose an effectiv...
