X. Zhang, R. E. Jacobs California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA, United States In the late 19 century Camillo Golgi revolutionize the budding discipline of neuroscience with his Black Reaction [1, 2], now known as the Golgi stain. This reaction stains a small eclectic, likely random, portion of neurons and processes in the tissue of interest. The Golgi stain consists of pretreatment wit...

Ni-, Co-, and Ptpromoted MoVNbOx mixed metal oxide catalysts were prepared by impregnation method. The physicochemical properties of the catalysts showed that the BET surface area of the promoted catalysts was lower when compared to the unpromoted catalysts due to the filling of open pores by the promoters. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis indicated that the main reflections were consistent wit...

Alumina supported molybdenum catalysts were prepared with an impregnation method. The activity of the catalyst in the ethanolysis of Kraft lignin to C6-C11 molecules, i.e. alcohols, esters, monophenols, benzyl alcohols and arenes, was tested in a batch reactor at 280 °C with initial 0 MPa nitrogen. The complete conversion of lignin to small molecular chemicals was achieved without the formation...

The Golgi silver impregnation technique gives detailed information on neuronal morphology of the few neurons it labels, whereas the majority remain unstained. In contrast, the Nissl staining technique allows for consistent labeling of the whole neuronal population but gives very limited information on neuronal morphology. Most studies characterizing neuronal cell types in the context of their d...

Supercritical impregnation is an attractive “clean” alternative to conventional soaking into liquid process, using generally organic solvents. Impregnation process can be used for the development of controlled delivery systems that can be applied in pharmaceutical and medical fields. This work focuses on the preparation of controlled drug delivery systems for ophthalmic applications through sup...

in our current study, supercritical water impregnation (scwi) was introduced as a unique catalyst preparation method by employing the high diffusivity property of supercritical water. the method allows nano-particles to place on support surfaces in extremely dispersed conditions. the silica-based nanocatalyst granules for this purpose were prepared by initial impregnation of highly porous silic...
