In this work, Pseudomonas delafieldii R-8 cells are immobilized in calcium alginate beads and used for BDS of transportation fuels. It is found that thiophene and dibenzothiophene (DBT) can be simultaneously metabolized by immobilized R-8 cells. The initial sulfur content in the model oil is 300 mg·kg-1 (thiophene " DI3T= 1 " 1). After 10 h of treatment, the thiophene concentration is reduced by 40%, while DBT is reduced by 25%. The utilization rate of thiophene is faster than that of DBT. Moreover, the oil/water ratio of alginate immobilized cells is studied to reduce the water volume in desulfurization systems. Long-term recycling of BDS by alginate immobilized cells is carried out with oil/water ratio at 5 : 1. The immobilized cells are successfully reused over 15 batch cycles. In the last batch, the desulfurization activity remains at least 75% of the first batch.展开更多

METHODS: Eighty-six patients were randomly divided into two groups: treatment group (n = 44) and control group (n = 42). DHEAS (100 mg q.d.) was given to the treatment group for 6 months. Bone mineral density, (BMD), biochemical markers of bone absorption and formation and other serum biochemical markers were measured before and after DHEAS treatment. Drug side effects were also evaluated. RESULTS: After oral administration of DHEAS (100 mg q.d.) for 6 months, the serum concentrations of DHEAS and IGF-I in the treatment group were 93.75% +/- 16.1% and 17.71% +/- 4.2% higher respectively than those in the control group (P展开更多
