Study on Pyrolysis of Shale Gas Oil-Based Drilling Cuttings: Kinetics, Process Parameters, and Product Yield.

The main reaction range (350-550 °C) of oil-based drilling cutting (OBDC) pyrolysis was studied by a thermogravimetric analyzer and a vacuum tube furnace. The average activation energies calculated by four model-free methods were 185.5 kJ/mol (FM), 184.

Pro-apoptotic activity of mBNIP-21 depends on its BNIP-2 and Cdc42GAP homology (BCH) domain and is enhanced by coxsackievirus B3 infection.

Our previous study reported that mouse BNIP-21 (mBNIP-21) induces apoptosis through a mitochondria-dependent pathway. To map the functional domains of mBNIP-21, we performed mutational analyses and demonstrated that the BNIP-2 and Cdc42GAP homology (BCH) domain is required for apoptosis induction by mBNIP-21 targeting the mitochondria and inducing cytochrome c release. This pro-apoptotic activity was enhanced by coxsackievirus infection.
