Radiotracer determination of dynamic parameters of a superphosphate granulator

An experiment on rabbits was carried out with the aim to check results obtained formerly with the help of the neutron activation analysis indicating that Na⁺ ions can be /by contrast to K⁺ ions/ only very slowly removed from the bone tissue by extraction with water. The data resulting from a radiotracer experiment with²²Na are in a good agreement with the above mentioned results.

Identifying Symmetry Classes of Elasticity Tensors Using Monoclinic Distance Function

We present a method to identify the symmetry class of an elasticity tensor whose components are given with respect to an arbitrarily oriented coordinate system. The method is based on the concept of distance in the space of tensors, and relies on the monoclinic or transversely isotropic distance function. Since the orientation of a monoclinic or transversely isotropic tensor depends on two Euler angles only, we can plot the corresponding distance functions on the unit sphere in ℝ³ and observe the symmetry pattern of the plot. In particular, the monoclinic distance function vanishes in the directions of the normals of the mirror planes, so the number and location of the zeros allows us to identify the symmetry class and the orientation of the natural coordinate system. Observing the approximate locations of the zeros on the plot, we can constrain a numerical algorithm for finding the exact orientation of the natural coordinate system.

Theoretical investigation of triazine based a star shape pyrrole monomer

In this work, we report a comprehensive theoretical investigation of electroactive star shaped pyrrole functionalized triazine monomer with two main goals. First goal of this work is to explore the physical and chemical properties of the monomer, then to investigate correlation between the experimental and the theoretical properties of monomer. The scale factor which is calculated from B3LYP/cc-pVDZ was determined as 0.985 for FT-IR and it is an important and reliable contribution to the literature. It is determined that the most appropriate basis set for this molecule. The other novel objective of this research is to investigate temperature effect on displacement of chlorine atoms in 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine. This method applied for the first time in the literature for triazines is especially crucial to the synthesis of unsymmetrical triazines.     

Histidine-epoxy-activated sepharose beads embedded poly (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) cryogels for pseudobiospecific adsorption of human immunoglobulin G

The use of highly purified immunoglobulin became among the most powerful adopted strategies in therapeutic trials nowadays. Their role as immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory agents has widened their scope of use. A novel continuous supermacroporous monolithic cryogels embedded with histidine-epoxy-activated-sepharose beads were synthetized as a new monolithic adsorbents for the separation of immunoglobulin G from human serum. The histidine-epoxy-activated-sepharose beads were embedded into the 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) cryogels present in frozen aqueous solution inside a plastic syringe. The microstructure morphology of the cryogels was characterized by swelling measurement and scanning electron microscopy. The adsorption of human IgG on the histidine-epoxy-activated-sepharose beads pHEMA cryogels appeared to follow the Langmuir–Freundlich adsorption isotherm model. The maximum IgG adsorption was observed at 4°C and pH 7.4 and was found to be 26.95 mg/g of cryogel which is close to that obtained experimentally (24.49 mg/g). The cryogels were used for several adsorption-desorption cycles without any negligible decrease in their adsorption capacity.
