Cracking and polymerization of the tar occur simultaneously at the proximity of inverse diffusion flame. Experimental study has been performed to clarify the effect of hydrogen concentration on soot formation and the growth of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. In the present study, hydrogen concentration is controlled by the small amount of hydrogen addition to the oxidizer. The main results are as follows. Soot formation is suppressed by the small amount of hydrogen addition. The suppression of soot formation is caused by higher concentration of hydrogen. Carbon yield increases by hydrogen addition since carbon content in the undetectable components by the integrated gas chromatograph decreases. In addition, the increase in carbon yield is caused mainly by the increase in carbon monoxide stemmed from reforming of high-boiling components.展开更多

Methods: lymphocytes and macrophages were obtained from ten 60-day-old male mice weighing 42-45 g, and then cultured in 24-well plates. Cells were treated with concentrations of 2%, 5%, 10% and 20% of oil from Copaiferalangsdorffii before or after induction of apoptosis with ultraviolet light. We used positive and negative controls. Hoechst staining was performed, and then images of cells under fluorescence microscope were captured and digitalized. We used Image J_1.46o to quantify the fluorescence intensity/brightness of condensation of the chromatin ofapoptotic cells. We used one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni's and Tukey's multiple comparison tests. Results are expressed as the means of relative densities after adjustment and 95% confidence intervals; P 〈 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: oil from Copaiferalangsdorffii at different concentrations has decreased necrosis and apoptosis of both lymphocytes and macrophages from mice, when compared to C+ (all P 〈 0.05). Discussion: Copaiferalangsdorffii is typically Brazilian and found in the Amazon region, with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antineoplastic effects due to its oil compounds, such as xyloglucans and kaurenoic acid. Its potential therapeutical usage was demonstrated in a national study. The present study showed that its oil has significant in vitro antiapoptotic and antinecrotic activity and it should be tested experimentally in vivo.展开更多
