Experimental Study of Methane Hydrate Decomposition Kinetics
Authors: Windmeier Christoph , Oellrich Lothar R. 
Published: May 2015

AbstractExperimental investigations of methane hydrate dissociation kinetics were performed. The test rig consists of a stirred reactor equipped with particle size analysis. The observed dissociation rates were found to be about one order of magnitude faster than previously reported by others. A mass transfer control of the dissociation process is proposed to dominate in the proximity of a dispersed hydrate‐liquid interface. The results are relevant for the design of processes employing dispersed gas hydrates in chemical engineering and the production of natural gas from dispersed deposits.
Modulation of Retinoic Acid Receptor Subtypes by 5‐ and 8‐Substituted (Naphthalen‐2‐yl)‐based Arotinoids

Published: May 2015

AbstractRetinoid receptors (RARs and RXRs) transduce the signals of their natural and synthetic ligands (retinoids and rexinoids) to cellular transcriptional machinery to induce gene programs that control diverse biological and physiological effects on organisms. All‐trans‐retinoic acid, the natural ligand for RARs, is used therapeutically for the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), whereas the synthetic rexinoid bexarotene (a representative member of the aromatic retinoids or arotinoids) is approved for the treatment of cutaneous T‐cell lymphoma (CTCL). Other retinoids have found applications in the topical treatment of skin disorders. In continuation of previous work on the naphthalene‐based arotinoid scaffold, we synthesized a new series of (3‐halo)benzoic acids connected to C5‐ or C8‐substituted naphthyl rings via (E)‐ethenyl and amide and, for the C5 series, (E)‐chalcone linkers. These compounds were evaluated as RAR modulators in comparison with previously described dihydronaphthalene arotinoids with the same substitution pattern. Transactivation studies in this series revealed an absence of synergy between small halogen atoms (F, Cl) at C3 and the groups at C5 or C8, as had been observed on some of the dihydronaphthalene analogues. Instead, non‐halogenated 4‐(2‐naphthamido)benzoic acid derivatives transactivated toward the RARβ subtype in preference to the paralogues. The derivatives with bulkier substituents at C8 were characterized as dual RARβ/RARα antagonists, and (E)‐4‐[(8‐(phenylethynyl)naphthalene‐2‐yl)ethenyl]benzoic acid (11 c), with an ethenyl connector, was shown to be a potent antagonist of RARα.
The assessment of scattered light in ophthalmic materials
Authors: Dain Stephen J. , Yuen Gloria S‐C. 
Published: May 2015

AbstractThe assessment of scattered light in lenses, sunglasses and eye protection has been carried out in various ways. Wide‐angle scatter (haze) is used in the United States, Australia and New Zealand. Small‐angle scatter (light diffusion) is specified in Europe. Little is known of the relationships within and between the methods. In an international standard, a single method is generally required. The measurement of wide‐angle scatter (haze) (two variations of a method) and small‐angle scatter (light diffusion) (three variations of a method) were carried out on 12 samples, 4 abraded, 4 with inclusion defects and 4 with surface coating defects, in an international inter‐laboratory comparison. The consensus means and confidence limits were used to compare two haze methods: the “Basic” light diffusion method and two variations of the “Simplified” light diffusion method. For abraded samples, haze and light diffusion measures are linearly related. For the remaining samples, the haze method was a much more sensitive detector of low levels of light scatter. The three measures of light diffusion are highly linearly correlated. Haze is the more sensitive measure for lower levels of light scatter when due to smaller scattering elements. The Basic and Simplified methods are highly linearly correlated. The red laser Simplified method returns a value 10% lower than that of the Basic method, and the green laser Simplified method returns a value 12% higher than that of the Basic method. These can be accounted for by a calibration factor or different acceptance values. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Col Res Appl, 41, 416–423, 2016
Measurement of Large Dipolar Couplings of a Liquid Crystal with Terminal Phenyl Rings and Estimation of the Order Parameters
Authors: Kumar R. V. Sudheer , Ramanathan Krishna V. 
Published: May 2015

AbstractNMR spectroscopy is a powerful means of studying liquid‐crystalline systems at atomic resolutions. Of the many parameters that can provide information on the dynamics and order of the systems, 1H–13C dipolar couplings are an important means of obtaining such information. Depending on the details of the molecular structure and the magnitude of the order parameters, the dipolar couplings can vary over a wide range of values. Thus the method employed to estimate the dipolar couplings should be capable of estimating both large and small dipolar couplings at the same time. For this purpose, we consider here a two‐dimensional NMR experiment that works similar to the insensitive nuclei enhanced by polarization transfer (INEPT) experiment in solution. With the incorporation of a modification proposed earlier for experiments with low radio frequency power, the scheme is observed to enable a wide range of dipolar couplings to be estimated at the same time. We utilized this approach to obtain dipolar couplings in a liquid crystal with phenyl rings attached to either end of the molecule, and estimated its local order parameters.
Fluid Simulation of a Cusped Field Thruster
Authors: Liu H. , Wu H. , Meng Y. , Yang S. , Zhang J. , Yu D. 
Published: May 2015

AbstractThe cusped field thruster is a kind of newly developed electric propulsion device. The electric field at the channel exit and the low frequency oscillation were measured by former experiments. While the formation mechanism of them have not been fully interpreted yet. Through studying two distinguishing typical electron paths in the thrusters, a fluid model is built up along two electron paths, and then the model is completed by synthetically analyzing the effect of two electron paths. Time‐averaged electric potential distribution, anode current oscillation curve and time‐synchronized atom density and ion density distribution are obtained by simulation.

Published: May 2015

ABSTRACTRelating changes in gene expression to discrete developmental events remains an elusive challenge in neuroscience, in part because most neural territories are comprised of multiple cell types that mature over extended periods of time. The medial nucleus of the trapezoid body (MNTB) is an attractive vertebrate model system that contains a nearly homogeneous population of neurons, which are innervated by large glutamatergic nerve terminals called calyces of Held (CH). Key steps in maturation of CHs and MNTB neurons, including CH growth and competition, occur very quickly for most cells between postnatal days (P)2 and P6. Therefore, we characterized genome‐wide changes in this system, with dense temporal sampling during the first postnatal week. We identified 541 genes whose expression changed significantly between P0‐6 and clustered them into eight groups based on temporal expression profiles. Candidate genes from each of the eight profile groups were validated in separate samples by qPCR. Our tissue sample permitted comparison of known glial and neuronal transcripts and revealed that monotonically increasing or decreasing expression profiles tended to be associated with glia and neurons, respectively. Gene ontology revealed enrichment of genes involved in axon pathfinding, cell differentiation, cell adhesion and extracellular matrix. The latter category included elements of perineuronal nets, a prominent feature of MNTB neurons that is morphologically distinct by P6, when CH growth and competition are resolved onto nearly all MNTB neurons. These results provide a genetic framework for investigation of general mechanisms responsible for nerve terminal growth and maturation. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Published: May 2015

AbstractA one‐step hydrothermal process to convert Gd‐doped titanium glycolate precursor nanospheres into TiO2:Gd mesoporous nanospheres by Ostwald ripening and to cause in situ Mo‐ and S‐doping of TiO2 was investigated. Importantly, the photocatalytic ability of the Mo,S‐doped TiO2:Gd mesoporous nanospheres was 3.8 times higher than that of the only S‐doped samples and better than that of the MoS2 sub‐microspheres under visible‐light irradiation. Moreover, treatment of the samples under a low vacuum for 3 days (6.7 ± 0.7 Pa, 150 °C) reinforced the photocatalytic properties of the nanospheres and increased their efficiency threefold.
