vanadium phosphorus oxides (vpo) has been applied as a heterogeneous catalyst in gas phase oxidation reactions and its application is very limited in liquid phase. in this study a series of cobalt-doped vanadium phosphorus oxides (vpo-co) catalysts with different loading of co (0.01-1.0 mol ratio of co/v) were prepared. oxidation of benzyl alcohol was studied in the liquid phase over vpo and vp...

there are two different co-expression systems including bicistronic; dual-vector or two-promoter to express two different genes simultaneously and also to study protein-protein interactions. bicistronic system has disadvantages e.g. compared with two-promoter system. in this paper, a simple method based on spliced overlap extension by polymerase chain reaction (soe-pcr) technique was demonstrat...

background:estrogens play a substantial role in the proliferation, progression and treatment of breast cancer by binding with two estrogen receptors, alpha and beta (erα and erβ). resistance to endocrine therapy is a major problem in the treatment of breast cancers and, in some cases, may be related to loss of er gene expression. we have already showed that erα methylation occurs in high freque...

The effect of Cu on cobalt/titania nanorod (Co/TNR) catalysts for the promotion carbon monoxide (CO) hydrogenation to hydrocarbons was investigated. Varying amounts (1.5–6.0 wt%) were loaded onto base Co/TNR catalyst using deposition–precipitation method. Characterization by X-ray diffraction (XRD) revealed that particles well dispersed over catalysts. Characterizations temperature-programmed d...

the aim of this paper is to study the kinetic study carbonylation of methanol using of the homogeneous rhodium catalyst and ch3i as the promoter in acid media based on monsanto process. the reaction was carried out in liquid media in the constant pressures 20,28 and 40 atm. and temperatures 170 to185oc, espect to the  initial  reactant concentrations and co pressure.  it was identified that the...

COx-free hydrogen production; cobalt-based catalysts for ammonia decomposition; cerium–barium promoter in cobalt catalysts.

The effects of potassium promoter for production of heavy hydrocarbons from syngas with silica- supported cobalt catalysts has been studied. After preparing the catalysts in accordance with the sol-gel method, they were subjected to various tests by using a small steely micro-reactor and capable of operating in diversified situations, such as stable temperature range, flow rate, space velocity,...

The CO preferential oxidation (PrOx) is one of the critical steps in hydrogen production and purification for Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC). This reaction was investigated in the presence of excess hydrogen over Cu/CeO2, Pt/CeO2 and Cu-Pt/CeO2 catalysts. The ceria supports was prepared via precipitation method and Cu-Pt/CeO2 catalyst was synthesized by sequential impregnation o...
