Radioactive iodine-129 (I-129) and technetium-99 (Tc-9(9)) pose a risk to groundwater due to their long half-lives, toxicity, and high environmental mobility. Based on literature reviewed in Moore et al. (2019) and Pearce et aL (2019), natural and engineer ...
This study focuses on Butyraldehyde (C4H8O) degradation using catalytic ozonation oriented to the optimization of non-thermal plasma/photocatalytic coupled processes. After the first oxidation by non-thermal plasma coupled photocatalytic processes, a secon ...
One of the most critical challenges for nanofluids in practical applications is related to their stability and reusability since a gradual agglomeration of nanoparticles in nanofluids occurs with time and is accelerated by heating. In this study, we propos ...
In the past decades different methods based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) have been developed to image a variety of hemodynamic parameters in tissue. However, simultaneous high resolution imaging of oxy- and deo ...
The activation of highly catalytic gamma-alumina surfaces by thermal treatment and the description of the related chemical processes at atomic scale is a topical issue. According to a recent study [J. Am. Chem. Soc. 134 (2012) 14430], the enhanced reactivi ...
Purpose Functional activation protocols are widely applied for the study of brain-cognition relations. Only few take advantage of the intrinsic characteristics of SPECT, particularly those allowing cognitive assessment outside of the camera, in settings cl ...
Gd3L is a trinuclear Gd3R complex of intermediate size, designed for contrast agent applications in high field magnetic resonance imaging (H12L is based on a trimethylbenzene core bearing three methylene-diethylenetriamine-N,N,N00,N00-tetraacetate moieties ...
{Fe[Gd2bpy(DTTA)2(H2O)4]3}4- is a self-assembled, metallostar-structured potential MRI contrast agent, with six efficiently relaxing Gd3+ centers confined into a small mol. space. Its proton relaxivity is particularly remarkable at very high magnetic field ...
Technetium is an artificial element and its isotope 99mTc is now used for several years as radio-imaging agent. Much research effort is directed towards enhanced targeting of the imaging agents in order to improve accuracy of the diagnosis and reduce the r ...
