A new HILIC stationary phase comprised of native cyclofructan-6 (CF6) bonded to superficially porous silica particles (2.7μm) was developed. Its performance was evaluated and compared to fully porous silica particles with 5μm (commercially available as FRULIC-N) and 3μm diameters. Faster and more efficient chromatography was achieved with the superficially porous particles (SPPs). The columns were also evaluated in the normal phase mode. The peak efficiency, analysis time, resolution, and overall separation capabilities in both HILIC and normal phase modes were compared. The analysis times using the superficially porous based column in HILIC mode were shorter and the theoretical plates/min were higher over the entire range of flow rates studied. The column containing the superficially porous particles demonstrated higher optimum flow rates than the fully porous particle packed columns. At higher flow rates, the advantages of the superficially porous particles was more pronounced in normal phase separations than in HILIC, clearly demonstrating the influence that the mode of chromatography has on band broadening. However, the minimum reduced plate heights (hmin) were typically lower in HILIC than in the normal phase mode. Overall, the superficially porous particle based CF6 column showed clear advantages over the fully porous particle columns, in terms of high throughput and efficient separations of polar compounds in the HILIC mode.

Nanoparticles have gained attention as drug delivery vehicles for cancer treatment, but often struggle with poor tumor accumulation and penetration. Single external magnets can enhance magnetic nanoparticle delivery but are limited to superficial tumors due to the rapid decline in the magnetic field strength with distance. We previously showed that a 2-magnet device could extend targeting to greater tissue depths.

Purpose: Successful regeneration of cranial defects necessitates the use of porous bone fillers to facilitate cell proliferation and nutrient diffusion. Open porous microspheres, characterized by their high specific surface area and osteo-inductive properties, offer an optimal microenvironment for cell ingrowth and efficient ossification, potentially accelerating bone regeneration.

Materials And Methods: An in vitro investigation was conducted to assess the physicochemical properties, porosity, and biocompatibility of PHA-nano-clay open porous microspheres.

School of Chemical Science and Engineering, Department of Thoracic Surgery, Shanghai Tongji Hospital, Tongji University, Shanghai, 200092, P. R. China.

Anthropogenic activities have caused a significant rise in nitrate and ammonia nitrogen levels in natural water bodies, disrupting the balance of the nitrogen cycle. The electrocatalytic reduction of nitrate and the oxidation of ammonia are promising strategies for converting polyvalent nitrogen into nontoxic and harmless N. Herein, a bifunctional electrode loaded with diatomic iron-nickel site on porous N-doped carbon (FeNi-NC) is designed and successfully applied for the co-electrolysis of nitrate and ammonia.

Introduction: The two most severe complications of single-stage, porous polyethene microtia reconstruction are flap necrosis/framework exposure and frontal nerve paralysis. To reduce these risks, require a temporoparietal fascia (TPF) flap that includes both the parietal and frontal branches of the superficial temporal artery (STA) while sparing the nerve. We propose a classification that helps minimize said complications.

Chiral superficially porous stationary phases for enantiomeric separation of condensed 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives.

1,4-dihydropyridine (DHP) scaffold occupies a prominent position among all heterocyclic compounds owing to its versatile pharmacological properties, particularly its well-known calcium channel blocking activity. In the quest of developing new calcium channel blockers, fifty seven 5-oxo-hexahydroquinoline (HHQ) derivatives carrying DHP framework in a condensed ring system were recently synthesized as racemic mixtures. Due to their potential as drug candidates, enantiomers arising from the asymmetric center at the C-4 position of the HHQ ring were separated.
