Genetic and metabolic determinants of methotrexate-induced mucositis in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia
(Springer Nature, 2014-11-04)
Methotrexate (MTX) is an effective and toxic chemotherapeutic drug in the treatment of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL). In this prospective study, we aimed to identify metabolic and genetic determinants of MTX ...
Stability of a Rh/CeO2–ZrO2 Catalyst in the Oxidative Steam Reforming of Raw Bio-oil
(ACS, 2018-02-21)
The oxidative steam reforming (OSR) of raw bio-oil (obtained by fast pyrolysis of pine sawdust) has been studied on a Rh/CeO2-ZrO2 catalyst under a wide range of operating conditions (600-750 ºC; steam to carbon molar ratio ...
