Assessment of Growth in Cardio‐Facio‐Cutaneous Syndrome
ABSTRACT Cardio‐facio‐cutaneous (CFC) syndrome is a rare, multiple congenital anomaly disorder in which individuals commonly experience faltering growth; however, systematic analysis of growth parameters in this disorder has not been performed. We recruited 69 participants with CFC through CFC International and collected data on assessing height ...

Observationally-derived Fractional Release Factors, Ozone Depletion Potentials, and Stratospheric Lifetimes of Four Long-Lived CFCs: CFC-13 (CClF3), CFC-114 (C2Cl2F4), CFC-114a (CF3CCl2F), and CFC-115 (C2ClF5) [PDF]
The longer an Ozone Depleting Substance (ODS) remains in the stratosphere, the longer it will be available for the process of ozone depletion. We present improved policy-relevant parameters: Fractional Release Factors (FRFs), Ozone Depletion Potentials ...

Abstract The development of renewable energy sources is important in order to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Waste cooking oil (WCO) is a promising feedstock for biodiesel production through transesterification. Heterogeneous bifunctional catalysts offer a sustainable alternative to conventional homogeneous bases such ...

Germylium Catalyzed Dehydrofluorination Reactions of Fluorinated Alkanes
Dehydrofluorination reactions of fluorinated alkanes catalyzed by germylium ions are reported. Computational studies of the mechanism revealed an E2 type mechanism involving a germane as a base to facilitate olefin formation in competition with an SN2 mechanism for hydrodefluorination.

From Nonfinancial Reporting to Management Control: A GRI‐Based Sustainability Balanced Scorecard
ABSTRACT The integration of sustainability into strategic management systems has shifted from a reporting‐oriented exercise to a challenge of implementation, control, and accountability. Although the SBSC is widely acknowledged as a suitable framework to embed environmental and social objectives into strategy execution, its practical application ...
