Oxides Catalysts of Rare Earth and Transient Metal for Catalytic Oxidation of Benzene

The catalysts of CeO2 and the mixture of CeO2 and CuO were prepared, and the activities of these catalysts for completely oxidizing benzene were studied.The results show that the optimal proportion of CeO2/CuO is 6: 4.The highest temperature at which benzene was completely oxidized on these catalysts at different airspeed was measured.Compared these catalysts with the noble metal used, our catalysts had superiority in the resources and the industrial cost besides good activities.

Treatment of low turbidity water by sweep coagulation using bentonite

A novel strategy of sweep coagulation to treat low turbidity water is presented herein. Study findings demonstrated that an Na⁺‐saturated bentonite with medium cation exchange capacity (CEC) resulted in significant turbidity removal at a bentonite dosage of 30 mg dm^?3. Bentonite dispersion with fully delaminated platelets tended to undergo a more porous type of coagulation with intense face‐to‐face interactions of platelets and effectively entrapped TiO₂ particles in band‐type structures. This type of coagulation usually results in a large volume of settled flocs with a fluffy structure and excellent turbidity removal efficiency for sweep coagulation. The sign and magnitude of electrical charge on TiO₂ particles has a minor effect on the efficiency of sweep coagulation. Copyright © 2005 Society of Chemical Industry

Selective employment of chemokine receptors as human immunodeficiency virus type 1 coreceptors determined by individual amino acids within the envelope V3 loop

The chemokine receptor CCR5 acts as an essential cofactor for cell entry by macrophage-tropic human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) strains, whereas CXCR4 acts as an essential cofactor for T-cell-line-adapted strains. We demonstrated that the specific amino acids in the V3 loop of the HIV-1 envelope protein that determine cellular tropism also regulate chemokine coreceptor preference for cell entry by the virus. Further, a strong correlation was found between HIV-1 strains classified as syncytium inducing in standard assays and those using CXCR4 as a coreceptor. These data support the hypothesis that progressive adaptation to additional coreceptors is a key molecular basis for HIV-1 phenotypic evolution in vivo.     

Comparison of two methods of surfactant administration and the effect on dosing-associated hypoxemia

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of our study was to test the hypothesis that surfactant dosing through a proximal sideport adapter on an endotracheal tube leads to more dosing-associated hypoxemia compared with a method of dosing that uses a double-lumen endotracheal tube. STUDY DESIGN: Using adequate sample size to compare significant changes in O2 saturation (power > 0.8, alpha < 0.05) we enrolled 36 infants with respiratory distress syndrome in this randomized trial. A 10% change in O2 saturation was considered clinically significant. Nineteen infants received 38 doses of surfactant through the sideport adapter. Seventeen infants received 31 doses of surfactant through the nonventilation lumen of a double-lumen endotracheal tube. Two main outcome measures were assessed: time-averaged O2 saturation values 30 minutes after dosing and the largest absolute fall in O2 saturation for each patient. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Time-averaged O2 saturation measures were higher in the proximal sideport group (p = 0.02), but the magnitude of difference was probably not clinically significant. No significant difference was detected between groups when we compared largest absolute drop in O2 saturation. Secondary analyses found no effect of birth weight or dose number (second vs third dose) on either outcome measure.     

Red-green colour blindness in the Tormes-Alberche Valley (Avila-Central Spain)

A population from a Central Spanish region (Tormes-Alberche Valley) has been investigated for the presence of red-green colour vision defects. A sample of 998 subjects (469 male and 529 female) was analyzed. To identify colour vision defects, Ishihara test plates were used. The red-green colour blindness percentage obtained was 4.69 +/- 0.976% for males (2.13% protan and 2.56% deutan types) and none of the females tested were found to be colour blind. These results are within the variation range of Mediterranean populations and lower than the usual frequencies among non-Mediterranean European samples.
