The role of manganese in CoMnO catalysts for selective long-chain hydrocarbon production via Fischer-Tropsch synthesis.

Cobalt is an efficient catalyst for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) of hydrocarbons from syngas (CO + H) with enhanced selectivity for long-chain hydrocarbons when promoted by Manganese. However, the molecular scale origin of the enhancement remains unclear. Here we present an experimental and theoretical study using model catalysts consisting of crystalline CoMnO nanoparticles and thin films, where Co and Mn are mixed at the sub-nm scale.

[EVALUATION OF THE BASIC PERFORMANCE IN THE SPECIFIC IGE ANTIBODY TEST KITS, VIEW ALLERGY 39 AND SILIS ALLERGY 45+1].

Background And Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the basic performance and accuracy as a screening test by comparing SiLIS Allergy 45+1 with View Allergy 39.

Methods: Measurements were performed with reagents and measuring instruments for View Allergy 39 and SiLIS Allergy 45+1 using blood samples of individuals with a previous history of IgE sensitizations. We compared the results between SiLIS Allergy 45+1 with View Allergy 39.

The TEG 6s Global Hemostasis System is Useful for Coagulation Management in Simultaneous Pancreas and Kidney Transplantation: The First Two Cases.

Introduction: Hypercoagulability-related graft thrombosis is the leading cause of graft failure after simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation (SPK). Addressing this issue is crucial to improve the outcomes of SPK recipients. Thromboelastography (TEG) has been used to assess the coagulation profiles of SPK recipients.

D-aspartate stimulates growth hormone secretion in wethers.

Growth hormone (GH) is an essential factor in enhancing the productivity of animals. In ruminants, L-aspartate (L-Asp) stimulates the secretion of GH; however, the effect of D-Asp on GH remains unknown. Here, we examined the effect of D-Asp on GH secretion in wethers.
