Combined chemical and optical methods for monitoring the early decay stages of surrogate human models
(2011)As the body decays shortly after death, a variety of gases and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) constantly emanate. Ethical and practical reasons limit the use of human corpses in controlled, time-dependent, intervening ...

A diffuse reflectance fourier transform infra‐red study of carbon dioxide adsorption on silicalite‐I
(1991)The adsorption of carbon dioxide at room temperature on large, well‐defined crystals of Silicalite‐I was studied by diffuse reflectance Fourier transfer infra‐red spectroscopy. The zeolite samples had a mean crystal size ...

Effects of sol-gel synthesis on 5Fe-15Mn-40Zn-40Ti-O mixed oxide structure and its H2S removal efficiency from industrial gas streams
(2009)A novel Fe-Mn-Zn-Ti-O mixed metal oxide has been developed for efficient low-temperature (25-50°C) removal of H2S from a gas mixture containing 600 ppm H2S, 25 vol% H2, 7.5 vol % CO 2, and 1-3 vol% H2O that simulates typical ...

Environmental aspects of VOCs evolved in the early stages of human decomposition
(2007)In the present study, the time profile, measured as "accumulation", of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) produced during the early stages of human decomposition was investigated. A human cadaver was placed in a sealed bag ...

Mathematical modeling of the oxygen storage capacity phenomenon studied by CO pulse transient experiments over Pd/CeO2 catalyst
(2003)A mathematical model has been developed for the first time to study the oxygen storage capacity (OSC) phenomenon by the CO pulse injection technique over a 1 wt% Pd/CeO2 model catalyst in the 500-700°C range. A two-step ...

Simultaneous resonance Raman detection of the heme a3-Fe-CO and CuB-CO species in CO-bound ba3-cytochrome c oxidase from Thermus thermophilus: Evidence for a charge transfer CuB-CO transition
(2004)Understanding of the chemical nature of the dioxygen and nitric oxide moiety of ba3-cytochrome c oxidase from Thermus thermophilus is crucial for elucidation of its physiological function. In the present work, direct ...

Trace detection of endogenous human volatile organic compounds for search, rescue and emergency applications
(2015)Since Pauling's paper in the 1970s, interest has increased in volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released from different bio-fluids, such as blood and urine. A number of VOCs reflect internal biochemical pathways occurring ...

The trapped human experiment
(2011)This experiment observed the evolution of metabolite plumes from a human trapped in a simulation of a collapsed building. Ten participants took it in turns over five days to lie in a simulation of a collapsed building and ...
