The noble gas argon is one of the most promising neuroprotective agents for hypoxic-reperfusion injuries of the brain. However, its effect on traumatic injuries has been insufficiently studied. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of the triple inhalation of the argon-oxygen mixture Ar 70%/O 30% on physical and neurological recovery and the degree of brain damage after traumatic brain injury and to investigate the possible molecular mechanisms of the neuroprotective effect.

A novel catalyst was fabricated using a two-step nonthermal plasma method by regulating surface hydroxyl groups on Na/activated carbon (AC) with 0.1 wt% Pt loading (Pt/Na/AC (P&P)) and achieved high formaldehyde (HCHO) oxidation performance at ambient temperature. Based on characterization results, we found that in the first step of nonthermal plasma treatment under argon-water, the proportion of terminal OH groups (ter-OH groups) evidently increased.

In the past decade, noble gases have emerged as highly promising neuroprotective agents. Previous studies have demonstrated the efficacy of argon neuroprotection in rodent models of cerebral ischemia. The objective of the present pre-clinical study was to confirm the neuroprotective effect of argon in a non-human primate model of endovascular ischemic stroke.

Post-compression methods aim to increase the peak intensity of amplified laser pulses via spectral broadening through self-phase modulation (SPM), followed by temporal pulse compression. However, other unavoidable nonlinear self-action effects, which typically occur parallel to SPM, can lead to phase distortions and beam quality degradation.

Argon (Ar) and helium (He) are two noble gases, highly stable single atoms. Their chemical inertness is well known.
