Parchment impregnated Ba(II) molybdate artificial membrane was prepared by the ion-interaction method using BaCl2 and Na2MoO4 solutions. The characterized sophisticated instrumental techniques such as Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission (TEM), Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA)/Differential thermal (DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD) Energy...

Nano-sized spinel cobalt chromite oxide CoCr2O4 and its substituted forms CoCr2−xAlxO4 (0 ≤ x 2) have been successfully synthesised by wet chemical route. The prepared powders were characterised means of thermal analysis (DTA/TGA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), UV–visible techniques (UV–Vis) colorimetric analyses (L*...

In vivo GITR ligation has previously been shown to augment T-cell-mediated anti-tumor immunity, yet the underlying mechanisms of this activity, particularly its in vivo effects on CD4+ foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs), have not been fully elucidated. In order to translate this immunotherapeutic approach to the clinic it is important gain better understanding of its mechanism(s) of action. Util...

We report a facile approach to forming dendrimer-stabilized gold nanoparticles (Au DSNPs) through the use of amine-terminated fifth-generation poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers modified by diatrizoic acid (G5.NH(2)-DTA) as stabilizers for enhanced computed tomography (CT) imaging applications. In this study, by simply mixing G5.NH(2)-DTA dendrimers with gold salt in aqueous solution at room t...

BACKGROUND Reduced risk of paraplegia is argued as an advantage of endovascular repair of descending thoracic aortic aneurysms (DTA) and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms (TAAA); however, paraplegia rates with open repair vary widely. STUDY DESIGN We identified consecutive patients undergoing open repair of TAAA or DTA with or without arch replacement using profound hypothermia and circulator...

Abstract Ilmenite FeTiO 3 is a wide-band gap antiferromagnetic semiconductor material and has very potential for applications in spintronic devices. Miniaturization of microelectronics communication systems become necessity. Thus that can achieve high properties small volume therefore favourite. For reason, particles the materials must also be nanoscale. This paper reports synthesis nano-sized ...

The objective was to characterize the ability of control and transgenic brown adipose tissue (BAT)-ablated uncoupling protein diphtheria toxin A chain (UCP-DTA) mice to adjust food intake in relation to changes in environmental temperature and to assess the involvement of leptin in this adjustment. We measured serum leptin in mice from a previous study of UCP-DTA mice raised at thermoneutrality...

This study was conducted to determine the role of thermal treatment on crystallinity and pore characteristics porous ceramic, which prepared from natural clay (NC) chitosan (CS) biopolymer using gel casting method. CS used as an environmentally friendly pore-forming agent. The applied temperature based analysis (TGA/DTA) results followed a sintering 900 1100 °C. showed that at temperatures 1000...

A laboratory-scale procedure was developed to obtain lanthanum oxide from spent fluid catalytic cracking catalyst, commonly used in the heavy crude oil process. Two different solids, consisting mainly of silica, alumina, and a certain amount rare earth elements, were leached under several conditions recover earths. Nitric acid leaching lead highest recovery lanthanum, reaching percentage greate...
