Effects of Ketone Bodies on Brain Metabolism and Function in Neurodegenerative Diseases
Under normal physiological conditions the brain primarily utilizes glucose for ATP generation. However, in situations where glucose is sparse, e.g., during prolonged fasting, ketone bodies become an important energy source for the brain.

Baeyer-Villiger Oxidation of Ketones with Hydrogen peroxide in the presence of Nano Zinc oxide [PDF]
In this work, a new application of nano zinc oxide in Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of ketones with hydrogen peroxide has been introduced. The capability of nano zinc oxide as a heterogeneous catalyst on the basis of of its very small size and large surface ...

Dependence of Biofuel Ignition Chemistry on OH-Initiated Branching Fractions
ion of hydrogen by ȮH is the dominant initiation step in low-temperature oxidation of biofuels. Theoretical chemical kinetics calculations for such reactions provide a direct means of quantifying rates of abstraction, which are critical to modeling ...
