Omics Markers of Red Blood Cell Transfusion in Trauma by Ian S. LaCroix, Mitchell Cohen, Ernest E. Moore, Monika Dzieciatkowska, Travis Nemkov, Terry R. Schaid, Margaret Debot, Kenneth Jones, Christopher C. Silliman, Kirk C. Hansen, Angelo D’Alessandro

“…We thus show that transfusion of packed RBCs transiently increases the circulating levels of plasticizers—likely leaching from the blood units during refrigerated storage in the blood bank. Changes in the levels of arginine metabolites (especially citrulline to ornithine ratios) are indicative of an effect of transfusion on nitric oxide metabolism, which could potentially contribute to endothelial regulation. …”

Production of polycrystalline silicon by chlorination from rice husk and purification of chlorine-containing gases by adsorption method by Zhanbolot K.Aidaraliev, Imilya A.Rysbaeva, Bekbolot kyzy Baktygul, Mairam K.Chimchikova, Rashid kyzy Burulcha

“…It has been established that highly volatile silicon (IV) chloride (SiCl4) at a given temperature remains in the gaseous phase and is completely distilled off in the next receiver of the refrigerator. This indicates that the silicon is in the form of SiCl4 (60°C) and condenses only at a lower temperature in the next receiver. …”
