In this study, a Pd catalyst was prepared with promoters such as CeO2, BaO and SrO in a washcoated form on a metallic monolith for autothermal reforming of methane to syngas for the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. A reactor was installed with an electric heater in the form of the metallic monolith as a start-up device instead of a burner with which stable and fast start-ups (within 4 min) were achieved. Gas hourly space velocity and O2/CH4 governed, methane conversion, while H2O/CH4 controlled H2/CO ratio. A methane conversion of approx. 96%, H2+CO selectivity of approx. 85%, and H2/CO of approx. 2.6 were obtained under the conditions of gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) at 103000 h?1, O2/CH4=0.7 and H2O/CH4=0.35. 相似文献
A liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) assay was developed and validated for the quantification of lurasidone, an atypical antipsychotic drug, in rat plasma, bile, and urine. Rat plasma, bile, or urine samples were processed by liquid–liquid extraction and injected onto an LC-MS system for the quantification of lurasidone and ziprasidone (an internal standard). Lurasidone and ziprasidone were separated from endogenous substances using a Gemini C6-Phenyl column with mixture of acetonitrile and 0.1 % formic acid (80:20, v/v) as the mobile phase. Quantification was performed using the selected ion monitoring mode at m/z 493 for lurasidone and m/z 413 for the IS. The detector response was specific and linear for lurasidone in the concentration range 5–5,000 ng mL−1 The intra- and inter-day accuracy and precision of the method were determined to be within the acceptable criteria for assay validation guidelines. In addition, lurasidone was stable under a variety of processing and handling conditions. Lurasidone concentrations could be readily measured in rat plasma, bile, and urine samples up to 24 h after an intravenous or oral administration, suggesting that the assay can be used in pharmacokinetic studies of lurasidone in rats.
In this study, five microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) grades were physically characterized and their extrusion-spheronization behaviours were characterized in terms of water requirements and pellet shape profiles. It was found that the MCC grades differed significantly in the physical properties investigated. Physical properties of MCC were found to influence the water requirement for extrusion-spheronization. MCC grades of higher bulk densities, lower porosities and water retentive capacities required less water to produce pellets of equivalent size. These MCC grades were also found to produce pellets of lower sphericity and wider shape distributions. Packing of MCC particles within the agglomerate played a role in determining amount of water retention and pellet rounding during spheronization. However, there was a limit to the influence of packing density on the rate of pellet rounding because poor packing resulted in higher water retentive capacity, which also limited the rate of rounding. 相似文献
Using solid phase synthesis, a library has been constructed of benzamidine-derived sulfonamides which have strong inhibitory
activity against blood coagulant thrombin. The library compounds were obtained in good yield and high purity.

A new approach to the synthesis of hierarchical micro‐ and mesoporous MOFs from microporous MOFs involves a simple hydrolytic post‐synthetic procedure. As a proof of concept, a new microporous MOF, POST‐66(Y), was synthesized and its transformation into a hierarchical micro‐ and mesoporous MOF by water treatment was studied. This method produced mesopores in the range of 3 to 20 nm in the MOF while maintaining the original microporous structure, at least in part. The degree of micro‐ and mesoporosity can be controlled by adjusting the time and temperature of hydrolysis. The resulting hierarchical porous MOF, POST‐66(Y)‐wt, can be utilized to encapsulate nanometer‐sized guests such as proteins, and the enhanced stability and recyclability of an encapsulated enzyme is demonstrated. 相似文献
Three new uni-dimensional alkali metal titanium fluoride materials, A2TiF5·nH2O (A=K, Rb, or Cs; n=0 or 1) have been synthesized by hydrothermal reactions. The structures of A2TiF5·nH2O have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The Ti4+ cations have been reduced to Ti3+ during the synthesis reactions. All three A2TiF5·nH2O materials contain novel 1-D chain structures that are composed of the slightly distorted Ti3+F6 corner-sharing octahedra attributable to the Jahn-Teller distortion. The coordination environment of the alkali metal cations plays an important role to determine the degree of turning in the chain structures. Complete structural analyses, Infrared and UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra, and thermal analyses are presented, as are electronic structure calculations. 相似文献
