Understanding the Lewis Acidity of Co(II) Sites on a Silica Surface.

Inorganic chemistry

Estes DP, Cook AK, Lam E, Wong L, Copéret C.
PMID: 28671845
Inorg Chem. 2017 Jul 17;56(14):7731-7736. doi: 10.1021/acs.inorgchem.7b00443. Epub 2017 Jul 03.

Heterogeneous catalysts consisting of isolated transition-metal sites dispersed on the surface of metal oxide supports are commonly used in the chemical industry. Often their reactivity relies on the Lewis acidity of the active sites on the surface of the...

The Role of Proton Transfer in Heterogeneous Transformations of Hydrocarbons.

Chimia

Estes DP, Copéret C.
PMID: 26507476
Chimia (Aarau). 2015;69(6):321-6. doi: 10.2533/chimia.2015.321.

Heterogeneous catalysis is essential for the transformation of light hydrocarbons into chemical feedstocks. Many of the catalysts that mediate these transformations consist of isolated metal ions on the surface of a metal oxide support, such as silica or alumina....

Factors Associated with Growth in Daily Smoking among Indigenous Adolescents.

Journal of research on adolescence : the official journal of the Society for Research on Adolescence

Whitbeck LB, Hartshorn KJ, McQuillan J, Crawford DM.
PMID: 23794792
J Res Adolesc. 2012 Dec 01;22(4):768-781. doi: 10.1111/j.1532-7795.2012.00825.x.

North American Indigenous adolescents smoke earlier, smoke more, and are more likely to become regular smokers as adults than youth from any other ethnic group yet we know very little about their early smoking trajectories. We use multilevel growth...

Myomectomy by Robotically Assisted Laparoscopic Surgery: Results at Foch Hospital, Paris.

Frontiers in surgery

Asmar J, Even M, Carbonnel M, Goetgheluck J, Revaux A, Ayoubi JM.
PMID: 26347871
Front Surg. 2015 Aug 20;2:40. doi: 10.3389/fsurg.2015.00040. eCollection 2015.

We reported an observational, retrospective chart review of 36 women who underwent robotic myomectomy at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Foch Hospital. Short- and long-term results were analyzed. We compared our results with literature data. Potential advantages and...

The low-temperature crystal structure of the multiferroic melilite Ca2CoSi2O7.

Acta crystallographica Section B, Structural science, crystal engineering and materials

Sazonov A, Hutanu V, Meven M, Roth G, Kézsmárki I, Murakawa H, Tokura Y, Náfrádi B.
PMID: 26830804
Acta Crystallogr B Struct Sci Cryst Eng Mater. 2016 Feb;72:126-32. doi: 10.1107/S2052520615023057. Epub 2016 Jan 29.

In the antiferromagnetic ground state, below TN ≃ 5.7 K, Ca2CoSi2O7 exhibits strong magnetoelectric coupling. For a symmetry-consistent theoretical description of this multiferroic phase, precise knowledge of its crystal structure is a prerequisite. Here we report the results of...

Transcription activation mediated by the bZIP factor SPA on the endosperm box is modulated by ESBF-1 in vitro.

The Plant journal : for cell and molecular biology

Conlan RS, Hammond-Kosack M, Bevan M.
PMID: 10476064
Plant J. 1999 Jul;19(2):173-181. doi: 10.1046/j.1365-313x.1999.00522.x.

A modified in vitro transcription system has been used to study the function of the cloned bZIP transcription factor SPA and the binding activity ESBF I in activating transcription from the bifactorial endosperm box region of the wheat prolamin...

Influence of molecular adsorption on the dielectric properties of a single wall nanotube: a model sensor.

The Journal of chemical physics

Langlet R, Arab M, Picaud F, Devel M, Girardet C.
PMID: 15538888
J Chem Phys. 2004 Nov 15;121(19):9655-65. doi: 10.1063/1.1808120.

Recent measurements of the resonance frequency of a copper disk covered with carbon nanotube bundles have shown characteristic resonance shifts during exposure with various gas molecules. The shifts were interpreted as the change of the dielectric permittivity of the...

Developing a translational discourse to communicate uncertainty in flood risk between science and the practitioner.

Ambio

Faulkner H, Parker D, Green C, Beven K.
PMID: 18240686
Ambio. 2007 Dec;36(8):692-703. doi: 10.1579/0044-7447(2007)36[692:datdtc]2.0.co;2.

The language and tools of risk and uncertainty estimation in flood risk management (FRM) are rarely optimized for the extant communication challenge. This paper develops the rationale for a pragmatic semiotics of risk communication between scientists developing flood models...

Design and use of organic nanoparticles prepared from star-shaped polymers with reactive end groups.

Journal of the American Chemical Society

Van Renterghem LM, Lammens M, Dervaux B, Viville P, Lazzaroni R, Du Prez FE.
PMID: 18627145
J Am Chem Soc. 2008 Aug 13;130(32):10802-11. doi: 10.1021/ja801055f. Epub 2008 Jul 16.

Star-shaped poly(isobornyl acrylate) (PiBA) was prepared by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) using multifunctional initiators. The optimal ATRP conditions were determined to minimize star-star coupling and to preserve high end group functionality (>90%). Star-shaped PiBA with a narrow polydispersity...
