Vapor-based polymer coatings for potential biomedical applications
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2006-12)
Over the last decade, biology and biotechnology have witnessed an extraordinary development spanning genomics, proteomics, and metabolics. This progress was so rapid and definite that it not only changed the face of modern ...
Influence of n -paraffin composition on the aging of wax-oil gel deposits
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2003-12)
An excess Gibbs free energy model is applied to investigate the influence of n-paraffin composition on the aging behavior of wax-oil gel deposits known to form in subsea petroleum transport pipelines. The aging of wax-oil ...
Low-Temperature SCR of NO with NH 3 over USY-Supported Manganese Oxide-Based Catalysts
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 2003-04)
A series of catalysts of manganese oxide, manganese–cerium and iron–manganese oxide supported on USY (ultra-stable Y zeolite) were studied for the low-temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with ammonia in ...
Minimizing the surface effect of PDMS–glass microchip on polymerase chain reaction by dynamic polymer passivation
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2007-01)
Polydimethyl siloxane (PDMS)–glass microchip has a very strong surface effect on polymerase chain reaction (PCR), leading to a very poor PCR yield. In the work reported here, practical dynamic passivation of surfaces of ...
Monitoring Chemical Reactions by Using Ion-Channel-Forming Peptides
(WILEY-VCH Verlag, 2006-03-06)
No Abstract
Excluded volume effects on the birefringence and stress of dilute polymer solutions in extensional flow
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 2000-10)
An algorithm is derived for calculating flow-induced birefringence using a bead-spring model with and without excluded volume effects. The simulation results for the bead-spring model compare well with experimental results ...
New sorbents for desulfurization of diesel fuels via Π-complexation
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2004-04)
Desulfurization of a commercial diesel fuel by different adsorbents was studied in a fixed-bed adsorber operated at ambient temperature and pressure. In general, the adsorbents tested for total sulfur adsorption capacity ...
Cell affinity separations using magnetically stabilized fluidized beds: Erythrocyte subpopulation fractionation utilizing a lectin-magnetite support
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2003-03-20)
A magnetically stabilized fluidized bed is used to separate erythrocyte subpopulations. Binding specificity was obtained by immobilizing the lectin Helix pomatia Agglutinin (HpA) or Griffonia simplicifolia I (GSI) onto ...
Pore-scale investigation of biomass plug development and propagation in porous media
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2002-03-05)
Biomass plugging of porous media finds application in enhanced oil recovery and bioremediation. An understanding of biomass plugging of porous media was sought by using a porous glass micromodel through which biomass and ...
Growth of Leuconostoc mesenteroides NRRL-B523 in an alkaline medium: Suboptimal pH growth inhibition of a lactic acid bacterium
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2005-01-05)
Bacterial profile modification (BPM), a form of tertiary oil recovery, diverts water from the water-flooded high-permeability zone into the oil-bearing low-permeability zone. During field use, exopolymer-producing bacteria ...
