Ruthenium(0) nanoparticles supported on bare or silica-coated magnetite are prepared by impregnation of ruthenium(III) ions followed by their reduction with aqueous solution of sodium borohydride on the surface of support. These magnetically isolable catalysts are used in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane at room temperature. They conserve their initial catalytic activity even after the fifth reuse in the hydrolysis reaction. Ruthenium(0) nanoparticles supported on bare magnetite ...

The amount of epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), a component of body visceral adiposity, has been linked to the presence and severity of cardiovascular disease through multiple mechanisms. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is characterized by insulin resistance and subclinical inflammation, which participate in the mechanism of atherosclerosis. We searched if the patients with PCOS have increased EAT thickness (EATT), along with its relation to the measures of adiposity and insulin sensitivity. A total ...
