Abstract OBJECTIVE To determine safety and distribution of MTX110 delivered by CED in newly diagnosed DIPG patients. METHODS DIPG patients (3–21 years) were enrolled after radiation. CED of MTX110 combined with gadoteridol was completed based on dose levels (DL) (30–90 µM with volumes ranging from 3 cc (single dose) to 2 consecutive doses of 6 cc; total number of DL=7). Catheter position was chosen to maximize tumor coverage. Distribution of infusate was monitored with real-time MR imaging. Repeat CED was performed every 4–8 weeks if tolerated. Quality of life (QOL) assessments using PedsQL Generic Core and Brain Tumor modules were obtained at baseline (n=5), 3-months (n=3), and end of therapy (n=2). Single-cell RNA sequencing and analysis of histone modifications was performed to assess pharmacodynamic effects on DIPG cells. RESULTS Between May 2018-Dec 2019, 6 patients were enrolled (median age 8 years, range 5–21). Dose limiting toxicities included: grade 3 gait disturbance (DL7; cycle 1); grade 3 muscle weakness/vagus nerve disorder (DL5; cycle 4) and grade 2 intolerable dysphagia (DL7; cycle 4). Twelve CED procedures were completed at DL7 and repeated cycles ranged from 2 to 7. Infusion to distribution volume ratio was approximately 1:3.5. There were no significant changes in self-reported QOL. Parent ratings of patients’ worry (p = 0.04) and overall QOL (p = 0.03) significantly decreased at 3-months. CONCLUSION Repeat CED of MTX110 at the highest dose is tolerable. Tissue concentrations are likely to be substantially higher compared to oral dosing. Pharmacodynamic effects will be presented.

Cooling has been used for the preservation of fresh produce such as fruit and vegetables due to its low cost and high effectiveness in maintaining the product quality. Recently, several researchers have conducted theoretical and experimental studies for obtaining the kinetics of cooling and cooling time for fruits with different geometries. Present work, therefore, aims to simulate the cooling of fruits with particular reference to banana, orange, strawberry and Tahiti lemon. The transient heat conduction equation and its analytical solution using Galerkin based integral method are presented. It has been found that the strawberry has lower dimensionless cooling time compared with time required to cool other fruits, which is due to its higher surface area/volume ratio value. In orange and lemon the temperature distribution was found to be homogeneous in the angular direction, while in banana and strawberry it was two-dimensional due to shape of the fruits.

Syngas (CO, CO2, and H2) has attracted special attention due to the double benefit of syngas fermentation for carbon sequestration (pollution reduction), while generating energy. Syngas can be either produced by gasification of biomasses or as a by-product of industrial processes. Only few microorganisms, mainly clostridia, were identified as capable of using syngas as a substrate to produce medium chain acids, or alcohols (such as butyric acid, butanol, hexanoic acid, and hexanol). Since CO plays a critical role in the availability of reducing equivalents and carbon conversion, this work assessed the effects of constant CO partial pressure (PCO), ranging from 0.5 to 2.5 atm, on cell growth, acid production, and solvent production, using Clostridium carboxidivorans. Moreover, this work focused on the effect of the liquid to gas volume ratio (VL/VG) on fermentation performances; in particular, two VL/VG were considered (0.28 and 0.92). The main results included—(a) PCO affected the growth kinetics of the microorganism; indeed, C. carboxidivorans growth rate was characterized by CO inhibition within the investigated range of CO concentration, and the optimal PCO was 1.1 atm (corresponding to a dissolved CO concentration of about 25 mg/L) for both VL/VG used; (b) growth differences were observed when the gas-to-liquid volume ratio changed; mass transport phenomena did not control the CO uptake for VL/VG = 0.28; on the contrary, the experimental CO depletion rate was about equal to the transport rate in the case of VL/VG = 0.92.

Dried and milled haulm of potato (Solanum tuberosum L) was used as the solid phase. An ethanolic solution of hydrochloric acid mixed with chloroform in different volume ratios was the liquid phase. The aim of paper was to unite in a single step the processes of glycoalkaloids extraction from haulm, their hydrolysis to solanidine and the extraction of solanidine. This could make the procedure of obtaining solanidine faster and simpler. The best degree of solanidine hydrolytic extraction of 84.5% was achieved using 10% w/v hydrochloric acid in 96% vol. ethanol mixed with chloroform in a volume ratio of 2:3, after 120 min of hydrolytic extraction.

Kinetics of electron transfer between ferrocene or its derivative (1,1'-diethyl- or 1,1'-distearoylferrocene) in dichloroethane and hexacyanoferrate(III) in water was studied by means of convolution potential sweep voltammetry. Within the accessible range of experimental conditions no effect of either the potential or concentrations of reactants on the rate constant of electron transfer from the organic to the aqueous phase (ko→w = 1 . 10-7 m4 mol-1 s-1) was observed. Electron transfer was shown to occur far from the potential range, in which the ferricenium ion transfer can take place. However, the reaction was complicated by the chemical decomposition of ferricenium in dichloroethane (k = 0·346 s-1).

A powerful technique for the concentration of rhodium (Rh) in plating wastewater was developed. The technique entails complexing Rh with 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN) followed by homogeneous liquid–liquid extraction (HoLLE) with Zonyl FSA. The optimum HoLLE conditions were determined as follows: [ethanol]T = 30.0 vol.%, pH = 4.00, and Rh:PAN = 1:5. Under these optimum conditions, 88.1% of Rh was extracted into the sedimented liquid phase. After phase separation, the volume ratio [aqueous phase (Va) /sedimented liquid phase (Vs)] of Va and Vs was 1000 (50 mL → 0.050 mL). We then applied the new method to wastewater generated by the plating industry. The phase separation was satisfactorily achieved when the volume was scaled up to 1000 mL of the actual wastewater; 84.7% of Rh was extracted into the sedimented liquid phase. After phase separation, Va/Vs was 588 (1000 mL - 1.70 mL).

AbstractThe kinetics of collision and bouncing of an air bubble on hydrophilic and hydrophobic solid surfaces immersed in distilled water is reported. We carried out the experiments and compared the bubble collision and bouncing courses on the stagnant and vibrating, with a controlled frequency and amplitude, solid/liquid interface. For stagnant interface differences in the outcome of the bubble collisions with hydrophilic and hydrophobic solid surfaces are resulting from different stability of the intervening liquid film formed between the colliding bubble and these surfaces. The liquid film was unstable at Teflon surface, where the three-phase contact (TPC) and the bubble attachment were observed, after dissipation of most of the kinetic energy associated with the bubble motion. For vibrated solid surface it was shown that kinetics of the bubble bouncing is independent on the hydrophilic/hydrophobic properties of the surface. Similarly like at water/glass hydrophilic interface, even at highly hydrophobic Teflon surface time of the bubble collisions and bouncing was prolonged almost indefinitely. This was due to the fact that the energy dissipated during the collision was re-supplied via interface vibrations with a properly adjusted acceleration. The analysis of the bubble deformation degree showed that this effect is related to a constant bubble deformation, which determined constant radius of the liquid film, large enough to prevent the draining liquid film from reaching the critical thickness of rupture at the moment of collision. The results obtained prove that mechanism of the bubble bouncing from various interfaces depends on interrelation between rates of two simultaneously going processes: (i) exchange between kinetic and surface energies of the system and (ii) drainage of the liquid film separating the interacting interfaces.

Spontaneous imbibition processes can play an important role in oil production. It can be enhanced or influenced by wettability changes generated by properly designed chemicals or by the natural surfactants resulting from reactive crude oils in the presence of alkaline solutions. The reaction of basic salts with some components of oil can, indeed, lead to the formation of natural soaps that reduces the interfacial tension between oil and brine. The latter scenario is studied herein on samples and oil from the St Ulrich oil field in the Vienna basin. To that end, spontaneous imbibition experiments were performed with two brines differing by the absence or presence of alkali. We first present a general novel technique to monitor saturation changes on small rock samples for the purpose of assessing the efficiency of a given recovery process. Samples of only 15 mm in diameter and 20 mm in length and set at irreducible saturation were fully immersed in the solution of interest, and the evolution of the samples’ saturation with time was monitored thanks to a dedicated NMR technique involving the quantification of the sole oil phase present within the sample. A fully-3D imbibition configuration was adopted, involving counter-current flows through all faces of the sample. The experimental method is fast for two reasons: (i) the kinetics of capillary imbibition process is proportional to the square of sample size, i.e. very rapid if accurate measurements can be acquired on tiny samples, (ii) the present 3D situation also involves faster kinetics than the 1D configuration often used. The NMR technique was crucial to achieve such conditions that cannot be satisfied with conventional volumetric methods. The kinetics of oil desaturation during spontaneous imbibition is interpreted with the help of an analytical 3D diffusion model. For the alkaline solution, the diffusion coefficient is reduced by a factor of only two compared to the non-alkaline brine, although the interfacial tension between the oil and the imbibing solution is reduced by a factor of 10. Hence, a wettability change to a more water wet state has to be assumed when the alkaline solution replaces the non-alkaline solution in the imbibition process. However, no significant impact on the final saturation was observed.
