Spring 2011
Selective ring opening of naphthenic molecules is a preferred reaction to increase cetane number of fuels, and it should result in products with no loss in molecular weight and longer alkyl side chains. Benzocyclopentane (indan) ring opening was studied under hydrogen atmospheric pressure at 609...

Bimetallicity is known to provide synergistic effects and improve catalytic performance of monometallic counterparts in a variety of applications. Conventional impregnation methods for supported catalyst preparation do not allow for the control of bimetallic nanoparticle structure or size, which...

Recently, considerable research has been conducted into solid-acid catalyzed carbonylation of dimethyl ether (DME) to methyl acetate (MeOAc), which can be further used for the iodine-free production of ethanol or acetic acid. The zeolite mordenite (H-MOR) is known as a potential catalyst but is...

Inhalable nanoparticles in lung cancer treatment; efficacy, safety, distribution and nanoparticle-macrophage interactions
DownloadFall 2012
In 2002, lung cancer was responsible for 17.6% of the total worldwide deaths from cancer. Beyond the three traditional forms of cancer treatment, surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy, targeted drug delivery therapy has shown to be a potential treatment option. The design of a successful...

Macrophages are the primary cells of innate immunity that provide the first line of defence against any external stimuli. Their phagocytic properties enable them to engulf invading microbes or foreign particles. The phagocytic capability of macrophages plays a major role in interfering with drug...

The changing causal foundations of cancer-related symptom clustering during the final month of palliative care: A longitudinal study
Download2008
Hanson, J., Hayduk, L., Quan, H., Olson, K., Strasser, F., Cui, Y., Lawlor, P., Cree, M.
Background: Symptoms tend to occur in what have been called symptom clusters. Early symptom cluster research was imprecise regarding the causal foundations of the coordinations between specific symptoms, and was silent on whether the relationships between symptoms remained stable over time. This...
