The superficial brachial artery (SBA), a branch of the axillary artery, is one of the most common arterial variations in this area. While it is more vulnerable to accidental arterial injection or injury, it could be useful for the nourishment of a medial arm skin free flap. To analyze the relationship between the SBA of axillary origin and segmental variation of the axillary artery, we dissecte...

Both the performance and regenerability of SO2 adsorbents made CuO supported on SBA-15 ordered mesoporous silica were studied for a cyclic DeSOx process under wet dry conditions. H2O vapor decreases 16 wt% loading CuO/SBA-15 (16CuO/SBA-15) adsorbent along adsorption/regeneration cycles performed at 400 °C. Indeed, breakthrough adsorption capacity this after ten adsorption- regeneration conditio...

Herein, we prepared a V/SBA-16 catalyst using vanadyl acetylacetonate as a precursor and SBA-16 nanoporous silica as a support via an immobilization technique. The ordered mesoporous structure of catalyst was determined by X-ray diffraction  and transmission electron microscopy techniques , and the catalyst was evaluated in the benzene hydroxylation to phenol with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as a ...

Raman, UV-Vis and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were combined in one experimental setup to directly study the interplay between structure and dispersion of SBA-15 supported vanadium oxide during dehydration. The fully hydrated catalyst is slightly reduced but consists mainly of V species with pseudo-octahedral V coordination strongly resembling the xerogel V2O5·1.2H2O. After dehydration a hi...

SBA-15 was utilized as mesoporous support for the dispersion of vanadium phosphate (VPO) compounds. Loading of SBA-15 with VPO compounds was found to be accompanied by decreasing (29)Si MAS NMR signals of Q(2) (Si(2Si,2OH)) and Q(3) (Si(3Si,1OH)) silicon species, which indicates coverage of the mesoporous support by the guest compounds. The (51)V MAS NNR spectra of the activated VPO/SBA-15 cata...

Hyperpolarization of metabolites by dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (D-DNP) for MRI applications often requires fast and efficient removal of the radicals (polarizing agents). Ordered mesoporous SBA-15 silica materials containing homogeneously dispersed radicals, referred to as HYperPolarizing SOlids (HYPSOs), enable high polarization - P(1H) = 50% at 1.2 K - and straightforward separa...
