Simulation‐based evaluation of the performance of the F test in a linear multilevel model setting with sparseness at the level of the primary unit
Authors: Bruyndonckx Robin , Aerts Marc , Hens Niel 
Published: May 2016

In a linear multilevel model, significance of all fixed effects can be determined using F tests under maximum likelihood (ML) or restricted maximum likelihood (REML). In this paper, we demonstrate that in the presence of primary unit sparseness, the performance of the F test under both REML and ML is rather poor. Using simulations based on the structure of a data example on ceftriaxone consumption in hospitalized children, we studied variability, type I error rate and power in scenarios with a varying number of secondary units within the primary units. In general, the variability in the estimates for the effect of the primary unit decreased as the number of secondary units increased. In the presence of singletons (i.e., only one secondary unit within a primary unit), REML consistently outperformed ML, although even under REML the performance of the F test was found inadequate. When modeling the primary unit as a random effect, the power was lower while the type I error rate was unstable. The options of dropping, regrouping, or splitting the singletons could solve either the problem of a high type I error rate or a low power, while worsening the other. The permutation test appeared to be a valid alternative as it outperformed the F test, especially under REML. We conclude that in the presence of singletons, one should be careful in using the F test to determine the significance of the fixed effects, and propose the permutation test (under REML) as an alternative.
Stabilizing Low‐Silica Zeolites through Aluminum Sulfate Assisted Cannibalistic Dealumination

Published: May 2016

AbstractA versatile dealumination strategy was proposed to stabilize low‐silica zeolites through cannibalistic interaction between the host framework Al (FAL) and the guest aluminum salt. It is possible to capture selectively the FAL and Na ions in NaY zeolite by employing a special external Al source such as aluminum sulfate as the dealuminating agent. This unique postmodification reduces the FAL amount efficiently and converts the chemically reacted Al species into a γ‐alumina support for the catalytically active component of zeolite, which avoids wasting Al sources. Possessing greatly enhanced hydrothermal stability, newly generated intracrystal mesopores, as well as an optimized distribution of FAL, the resultant dealuminated Y zeolite catalysts can be used practically in heavy oil cracking.

Published: May 2016

AbstractThe mild and fast copper‐catalyzed radical and regioselective aminoalkoxylation of styrenes by using N‐fluorobenzenesulfonimide and simple alcohols as nitrogen and alkoxy sources, respectively, was investigated. The aminoalkoxylated products obtained could be used in the synthesis of new compounds with possible activity as neurotransmitter receptor ligands.
Pure Pyridinic Nitrogen‐Doped Single‐Layer Graphene Catalyzes Two‐Electron Transfer Process of Oxygen Reduction Reaction
Authors: Zheng Bo , Cai Xiao‐Li , Zhou Yue , Xia Xing‐Hua 
Published: May 2016

AbstractA post‐treatment approach is presented to prepare nitrogen‐doped single‐layer graphene via ultraviolet/ozone (UV/O3) irradiation followed by NH3 annealing. Under optimal experimental conditions, a maximum atomic ratio (N/C) of 16.6 % can be reached. X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis reveals that only one type of pyridinic N is doped in the graphene lattice, which can be used as an ideal platform to investigate its catalytic activity toward oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Electrochemical results demonstrate that ORR on the pyridinic N doped graphene sheet occurs via a two‐electron transfer process, indicating that the pure pyridinic N doped graphene is not an effective 4e‐process promoter.
Evaluating the Feasibility of Microbial Electrosynthesis Based on Gluconobacter oxydans
Authors: Gimkiewicz Carla , Hunger Steffi , Harnisch Falk 
Published: May 2016

AbstractPrimary microbial electrochemical technologies are utilizing the interfacing of microbial redox reactions and electrodes. Based on its exploitation as recognition element for bioelectrochemical glucose sensors and inspired by its biotechnological potential Gluconobacter oxydans was studied on its suitability for microbial electrosynthesis. It is demonstrated that in bioelectroreactors the conversion of glucose by G. oxydans based on mediated extracellular electron transfer is not related to electric current flow. Oxidation current can only be recorded after preceding aeration phase, but the response does strongly depend on the microbial activity status, pO2 and gas supply as well as the pH regime. It is proven that the electric current is derived from the microbial cells, but the mechanism still needs to be elucidated. The suitability of G. oxydans for microbial electrosynthesis but also for bioelectrochemical sensors is critically assessed.
