Crystallization of medium length 1-alcohols in mesoporous silicon: An X-ray diffraction study [PDF]
The linear 1-alcohols n-C16H33OH, n-C17H35OH, n-C19H37OH have been imbibed and solidified in lined up, tubular mesopores of silicon with 10 nm and 15 nm mean diameters, respectively. X-ray diffraction measurements reveal a set of six discrete orientation

H4-Alkanes: A new class of hydrogen storage material?
The methane-based material (H$_2$)$_4$CH$_4$, also called H4M for short, is in essence a methane molecule with 4 physisorbed H$_2$ molecules. While H4M has exceptionally high hydrogen storage densities when it forms a molecular solid, unfortunately, this

Characterization of carbon monoxide, methane and nonmethane hydrocarbons in emerging cities of Saudi Arabia and Pakistan and in Singapore [PDF]
We investigate the composition of 63 C2-C10 nonmethane hydrocarbons (NMHCs), methane (CH4) and carbon monoxide (CO), in Jeddah, Mecca, and Madina (Saudi Arabia), in Lahore, (Pakistan), and in Singapore. We established a database with which to compare and

Thermal Study on Adducts of Urea with n-Alkanes and n-l-Alkanols [PDF]
Crystalline adducts of urea with n-alkanes (C(8)~C(20)) and n-l-alkanols (C(12)~C(18)) were prepared. From thermal analysis and X-ray diffraction study on the adducts, we found that the composition of adducts and the heat of decomposition can be obtained

Role of Internal Motions and Molecular Geometry on the NMR Relaxation of Hydrocarbons
The role of internal motions and molecular geometry on $^1$H NMR relaxation times $T_{1,2}$ in hydrocarbons is investigated using MD (molecular dynamics) simulations of the autocorrelation functions for in{\it tra}molecular $G_R(t)$ and in{\it ter ...

Ozone and alkyl nitrate formation from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill atmospheric emissions [PDF]
Ozone (O3), alkyl nitrates (RONO2), and other photochemical products were formed in the atmosphere downwind from the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) oil spill by photochemical reactions of evaporating hydrocarbons with NOx (=NO+NO2) emissions from spill response

Responses of CYP450 dependent system to aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons body burden in transplanted mussels from South coast of Portugal [PDF]
Mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis were cross-transplanted at South Portugal from a reference site (site 1) to a site more contaminated with hydrocarbon compounds (site 2), and vice versa, in an active biomonitoring (ABM) concept, to assess the ...

In this explorative biomarker analysis, we assessed serial sampling of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) with CellSearch in two randomized trials testing immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in metastatic breast cancer. Our data demonstrate a prognostic potential of CTCs, most apparent 4 weeks into ICI therapy.
