Improvement of Catalytic Performance in Isobutane Oxidation to Methacrylic Acid of Keggin-Type Phosphomolybdates by Preparation via Lacunary Precursors: Nature of the Active Sites
Heterogeneous catalysts for the oxidation of isobutane to methacrylic acid were prepared by precipitation of ammonium salts of P/Mo polyoxometalates (POMs) at pH ranging from strongly acidic (pH<1) to mildly a...

Temporary Immersion for Plant Tissue Culture
Mass propagation of plants by tissue culture is labour-intensive and costly. Gelling agents have many drawbacks: they are not an inert medium component and do not enable easy automation. So liquid culture syst...

New Approach in Immunometric Assays
Since their development in the 1960s, immunoassays have been used analytically in a wide variety of biological fields (1). Their success is largely due to the remarkable ability of antibodies to recognize mole...

Enhancement of catalytic activity of the ammonium/potassium salt of 12-molybdophosphoric acid by iron ion addition for the oxidation of isobutane to methacrylic acid
The oxidation of isobutane to methacrolein and methacrylic acid was carried out over potassium/ammonium salts of 12-molybdophosphoric acid (Keggin-type heteropoly compounds), with overall selectivity to the de...
