A study was made of the infrared absorption spectrum for
cyanate ion in KCl and KBr host lattices containing small amounts of
calcium or barium ion. Both pellets and single crystals were
scanned during the course of this study. The spectra of the barium
or calcium doped crystals contained many...
Graphite oxides which had been prepared from three different
size graphite particles by the modified Brodie method were observed
with the electron microscope. The thermal decomposition products
of the oxides, obtained by heating them at 240° and 300°,
were observed using the electron microscope and x-ray diffraction.
Graphite oxide was...
The Institute of Medicine has identified Latino and American Indian populations as populations experiencing significant health and health care access inequities. Previous research indicates that Latinos and American Indians suffer from excess morbidity in respect to same-aged White adults due to higher rates of preventable chronic diseases (i.e. high blood...
A survey of the methods of purification of KC1, for use in
preparing single crystals by growth from the melt, was made. Two
methods, fractional recrystallization and ion exchange, were used.
The purity of the salt and crystals grown from the same salt were
compared with the findings of other...
Bicyclo [6.1.0] non-4-ene was prepared by two routes; (1) reaction
of cis-cis-1, 5-cycloöctadiene with methylene iodide and zinc-copper
couple, (2) sodium-methanol reduction of 9, 9-dibromobicyclo-[6.1.0] non-4-ene. The bicyclononene was characterized by its infrared
spectrum, nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum and common
physical properties. The olefin was hydrogenated to bicyclo [6.1.0] -...
With Alzheimer’s disease being the most prominent form of dementia, finding potential treatments for the disease is imperative. This study explored the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug ibuprofen as a potential treatment to normalize the hyperactive N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) within the 5xFAD mice early in the disease pathology before cognitive decline. Female...
