Kinetic, intracellular ATP growth and maintenance studies, and modeling of metabolically engineered Zymomonas mobilis fermenting glucose and xylose mixtures
(2006)
Intracellular adenosine-5’-triphosphate (ATP) levels were measured in a metabolically engineered Zymomonas mobilis strain 8b over the course of batch fermentations of glucose and xylose mixtures. Recombinant Z. mobilis, a ...
Autothermal reforming (ATR) for fuel cells in automotive applications
(2004)
Autothermal reforming of liquid fuels had been demonstrated to be feasible for use in fuel cell vehicles. One of the main problems with reforming systems is that the concentration product of carbon monoxide has to be less ...
Characterization of proton exchange membrane fuel cell and PEM electrolyzer using non-steady electrochemical techniques.
(2004)
Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs) and PEM Electrolyzer were
characterized using Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). Faradaic resistance
(RΩ), kinetic and mass transfer parameters such as charge ...
Operational parameters optimization of cross-flow ceramic membrane ultrafiltration for water depyrogenation
(2004)
Water ultrafiltration has been suggested as an alternative for the removal of
lypopolysaccharides in the production of Water for Injection and, Pyrogen Reduced
Water. Ultrafiltration of water using an annular ceramic ...
Oil accumulation via Chlorella species using carbon sources from waste
(2009-12)
One of the global issues acquiring significant attention these days is related to energy supply and demand. The irreversible decrease of fossil fuels left to supply energy and the greenhouse gases increase in the atmosphere ...
Carboxymethylation of dextran for surface modification of magnetite nanoparticles
(2009)
Magnetite nanoparticles are currently studied for biomedical applications such as MRI, drug delivery, and magnetic fluid hyperthermia (MHF). These applications require nanoparticles with a suitable coating which provides ...
Studies of ferrite based magnetic nanoparticle uptake and magnetocytolysis effects on model cell cultures
(2009)
Suspended ferrite magnetic nanoparticles are known to dissipate energy under an oscillating magnetic field. Such energy dissipation could be employed to locally raise temperature inside a tumor to 41-45°C (hyperthermia), ...
Rheology and gelation of physical polymer gels
(2011)
The discovery of new potent and water-insoluble drugs has emphasized the need for novel drug-delivery systems and personalized dosification. Biopolymers solutions are an alternative over conventional methods since they can ...
Molecular simulation studies for the templated synthesis of ultrathin metal nanowires in zeolites
(2012)
In the present work geometric optimizations, Metropolis Monte Carlo, and molecular dynamics simulations were done to study the feasibility of synthesizing Ni and Pt nanowires inside the pores of one dimensional zeolite ...
Atomic pair distribution study of the growth of Pt nanoparticles in zeolites
(2016)
The Pair Distribution Function (PDF) is a total scattering method used to study the local structure of a material and yields a function in real space with peaks that represent the interatomic distances. In this work, we ...
