Metal solution precursors: their role during the synthesis of MoVTeNb mixed oxide catalysts
[EN] Synthesized via the slurry method and activated at high temperature (873 K), MoVTeNb multimetallic mixed oxides are applied to catalyze the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane to ethylene (ODHE). Mixed oxides typically contain M1 and M2 crystalline phases, the relative contribution of these phases and the respective catalytic behaviour being notably influenced by the preparation conditions of the metallic aqueous solution precursor, given the complexity of the chemical interactions of metal species in solution. Thus, detailed in situ UV-vis and Raman studies of the chemical species formed in solution during each step of the synthetic procedure are presented herein. The main role of vanadium is to form decavanadate ions, which interact with Mo species to generate an Anderson-type structure. When niobium oxalate solution is added into the MoVTe solution, a yellow-coloured gel is immediately formed due to a common ion effect. When liquid and gel phases are separated, the M1 crystalline phase is produced solely from the gel phase. Attention is also devoted to the influence and role of each metal cation (Mo, V, Te and Nb) on the formation of the active M1 crystalline phase and the catalytic behaviour in the ODHE. The catalyst constituted mostly of M1 crystalline phase is able to convert 45% of the fed ethane, with a selectivity to ethylene of around 90%.This work was financially supported by the Instituto Mexicano del Petroleo (IMP) Project D.61010.

Bone Marrow-Derived Cells from Male Donors Do Not Contribute to the Endometrial Side Population of the Recipient
Accumulated evidence demonstrates the existence of bone marrow-derived cells origin in the endometria of women undergoing bone marrow transplantation (BMT). In these reports, cells of a bone marrow (BM) origin are able to differentiate into endometrial cells, although their contribution to endometrial regeneration is not yet clear. We have previously demonstrated the functional relevance of side population (SP) cells as the endogenous source of somatic stem cells (SSC) in the human endometrium. The present work aims to understand the presence and contribution of bone marrow-derived cells to the endometrium and the endometrial SP population of women who received BMT from male donors. Five female recipients with spontaneous or induced menstruations were selected and their endometrium was examined for the contribution of XY donor-derived cells using fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), telomapping and SP method investigation. We confirm the presence of XY donor-derived cells in the recipient endometrium ranging from 1.7% to 2.62%. We also identify 0.45–0.85% of the donor-derived cells in the epithelial compartment displaying CD9 marker, and 1.0–1.83% of the Vimentin-positive XY donor-derived cells in the stromal compartment. Although the percentage of endometrial SP cells decreased, possibly being due to chemotherapy applied to these patients, they were not formed by XY donor-derived cells, donor BM cells were not associated with the stem cell (SC) niches assessed by telomapping technique, and engraftment percentages were very low with no correlation between time from transplant and engraftment efficiency, suggesting random terminal differentiation. In conclusion, XY donor-derived cells of a BM origin may be considered a limited exogenous source of transdifferentiated endometrial cells rather than a cyclic source of BM donor-derived stem cells
Constraints on the χ_(c1) versus χ_(c2) polarizations in proton-proton collisions at √s = 8 TeV
The polarizations of promptly produced χ_(c1) and χ_(c2) mesons are studied using data collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC, in proton-proton collisions at √s=8 TeV. The χ_c states are reconstructed via their radiative decays χ_c → J/ψγ, with the photons being measured through conversions to e⁺e⁻, which allows the two states to be well resolved. The polarizations are measured in the helicity frame, through the analysis of the χ_(c2) to χ_(c1) yield ratio as a function of the polar or azimuthal angle of the positive muon emitted in the J/ψ → μ⁺μ⁻ decay, in three bins of J/ψ transverse momentum. While no differences are seen between the two states in terms of azimuthal decay angle distributions, they are observed to have significantly different polar anisotropies. The measurement favors a scenario where at least one of the two states is strongly polarized along the helicity quantization axis, in agreement with nonrelativistic quantum chromodynamics predictions. This is the first measurement of significantly polarized quarkonia produced at high transverse momentum
