    Notes: Abstract Industrial doubly-promoted iron catalysts and model systems of singly-promoted K- and Al-iron catalysts were characterised by their catalytic performance at 1 bar pressure. The relevance of bulk nitrogen for catalytic performance is shown. The catalysts were also activated in an in-situ reaction chamber of a He-ion scattering spectrometer (ISS) and their top atomic layer elemental composition was determined after they had reached similar performance as in the microreactor tests. The bulk microstructure of these samples was investigated by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and microdiffraction. All evidence indicates that small highly crystalline α-Fe platelets act as active phase. Their surfaces are covered to a large extent by promotor compounds which are partly present as poorly crystalline aggregates with iron oxide leaving only a small fraction of elemental iron directly exposed to the gas phase. The intimate contact between iron crystals and promoters particles prevents recrystallisation and is the key to the understanding of the structural stability of the catalyst system.

    Notes: Abstract Reaction of Ru(NH3)6Cl3 with Na-A and K-A zeolites yielded oligomeric amino-oxo-complexes supported on the zeolite. Controlled thermal activation under hydrogen converted the precursor in a two-step reaction into an active catalyst with good long-term stability and resistance against small doses of oxygen poison. Several nanometers sized Ru metal particles are chemically bonded to the zeolite surface which provides in the K form an alkali promoter at the metal-zeolite interface. Extensive oxidation breaks the metal-support anchoring and re-reduction produces Ru metal particles sintering rapidly into large metal crystals with only small residual catalytic activity.

    Notes: Summary The effect of hypoxia and the renin-angiotensin system on metabolic coronary regulation in hemorrhagic shock was studied in 22 anesthetized open-chest dogs. Left circumflex coronary blood flow was measured with an electromagnetic flowmeter. Dogs were ventilated with room air (n = 8) or 100% oxygen (n = 7). A third group of dogs was ventilated with room air and bilaterally nephrectomized 5 h prior to starting the experimental protocol (n = 7). After control data had been obtained, dogs were bled from the femoral arteries into a pressurized reservoir which maintained blood pressure at 45 ± 1 mm Hg. The angiotensin II receptor blocker, saralasin, was then infused i.v. (0.1, 1.0, 10.0 µg/kg per min). Coronary blood flow was reduced by hemorrhage, and no significant difference existed in coronary flow during hemorrhage among the three groups. Coronary sinus oxygen saturation was diminished in control animals during hemorrhage from 26% ± 1% to 17% ± 1% (P 〈 0.05) but normal in 100% oxygen ventilated animals (30% ± 3%) and in nephrectomized dogs (34% ± 4%). Coronary oxygen extraction was reduced by saralasin in intact but not in nephrectomized dogs. In six additional experiments, in which blood pressure was not artificially held constant during saralasin infusion, saralasin still significantly improved coronary sinus oxygen saturation and thus reduced coronary oxygen extraction. The data suggest that both hypoxia and the reninangiotensin system participate in the restriction of metabolic coronary regulation in hemorrhagic shock.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung An 21 narkotisierten thorakotomierten Hunden wurde der Einfluß von Vorhofflimmern auf die Koronardurchblutung untersucht. Vorhofflimmern wurde entweder durch lokale Applikation einer 10%-Acetylcholinlösung auf das linke Herzohr oder durch elektrische Stimulation (2–7 Volt, 2 ms, 50 Hz) induziert. Unter Vorhofflimmern (n=10) kam es zu einem signifikanten Abfall des mittleren Aortendruckes und Anstieg der Herzfrequenz; die Koronardurchblutung änderte sich nicht (78±6 gegenüber 75±5 ml/min×100 g), dagegen nahmen der Koronargefäßwiderstand von 1,16±0.05 auf 0,87±0.07 (mmHg×min×100 g)/ml (RU), p〈0,0001 und die koronarvenöse Sauerstoffsättigung von 26±2% auf 22±1%, p〈0,05, ab. Nach maximaler Koronardilatation durch Carbochromen (5mg/kg in 3 min i.v.) waren Koronardurchblutung (311±48 gegenüber 205±30 ml/min×100 g, p〈0,01) und koronarvenöse Sauerstoffsättigung (65±6 gegenüber 42±6%, p〈0,01) bei Vorhofflimmern deutlich niedriger, der Koronargefäßwiderstand (0,27±0,03 gegenüber 0,37±0,04 RU, p〈0,0001) hingegen um 38±8% (p〈0,0005) größer als bei Sinusrhythmus. Während der ebenfalls durch elektrische Vorhofstimulation ausgelösten supraventrikulären Tachykardie mit identischer Herzfrequenz wie bei Vorhofflimmern (n=11) waren Koronardurchblutung (92±9 gegenüber 125±14 ml/min×100 g, p〈0,001) und koronarvenöse Sauerstoffsättigung (24±2 gegenüber 30±2%, p〈0,0025) größer, der Koronargefäßwiderstand (1,16±0,11 gegenüber 0,97±0,10 RU, p〈0,0005) niedriger als bei Vorhofflimmern; auch bei maximaler Koronardilatation waren Koronardurchblutung (168±16 gegenüber 233±24 ml/min×100 g, p〈0,0005) und koronarvenöse Sauerstoffsättigung (57±2 gegenüber 70±3%, p〈0,0005) größer, der Koronargefäßwiderstand (0,46±0,02 gegenüber 0,35±0,02 RU, p±0,0005) niedriger als bei Vorhofflimmern. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, daß bei Vorhofflimmern zwar der Koronargefäßwiderstand abnimmt, dennoch die Sauerstoffausschöpfung ansteigt. Dieser vasokonstriktorische Effekt des Vorhofflimmerns wird dann sichtbar, wenn die Herzfrequenz kontrolliert wird. Das vasokonstriktorische Effekt ist unter maximaler Koronardilatation größer als unter Ausgangsbedingungen.
    Notes: Summary The influence of atrial fibrillation on coronary circulation was studied in 21 anesthetized open-chest dogs. Atrial fibrillation was induced either by local application of acetylcholine (10% in normal saline) on the left atrial appendage or by electric stimulation (2–7 volts, 2 ms, 50 Hz). When atrial fibrillation was induced (n=10), mean aortic pressure fell and heart rate rose significantly; coronary blood flow (CBF) remained unchanged (78±6 vs. 75±5 ml/min×10 g) while coronary vascular resistance (CVR) (1.16±0.05 vs. 0.87±0.07 [mHg×min×100 gl/ml [RU], p〈0.0001) and sinus oxygen saturation (26±2 vs. 22±1%, p〈0.05) decreased. Following the application of carbochromen (5 mg/kg in 3 min i.v.) resulting in maximal coronary dilatation, atrial fibrillation resulted in a reduction in CBF (311±48 vs. 205±30 ml/min×100 g, p〈0.01) and coronary sinus oxygen saturation (65±6 vs. 42±6%, p〈0.01), while CVR (0.27±0.03 vs. 0.37±0.04 RU, p〈0.0001) was 38±8% (p〈0.0005) higher during atrial fibrillation than at sinus rhythm. When hearts were paced to a rate which was identical to the average heart rate at atrial fibrillation (n=11), CBF (92±9 vs. 125±14 ml/min×100 g, p〈0.001) and sinus oxygen saturation (24±2 vs. 30±2%, p〈0.0025) were higher and CVR (1.16±0.11 vs. 0.97±0.10 RU, p〈0.0005) lower than during atrial fibrillation; during maximal coronary dilatation by carbochromen, pacing also resulted in a higher CBF (233±24 vs. 168±16 ml/min×100 g, p〈0.0005) and sinus oxygen saturation (70±3 vs. 57±2%, p〈0.0005), while CVR (0.35±0.02 vs. 0.46±0.02 RU, p〈0.0005) was lower than during atrial fibrillation. Thus atrial fibrillation results in a decrease in coronary vascular resistance but an increase in coronary oxygen extraction. When heart rate is controlled, the vasoconstrictor effect of atrial fibrillation becomes unmasked. Coronary vasoconstriction during atrial fibrillation appears to be greater during maximal coronary dilatation than during control.

    Notes: Summary The mechanism of coronary vasoconstriction induced by atrial fibrillation during maximal coronary dilatation was studied in 19 chloralose-urethane anesthetized dogs. Maximal coronary dilatation was achieved by carbochromene (5 mg/kg i.v.) or dipyridamole (0.2 mg/kg i.v.) Left circumflex coronary blood flow was measured with an electromagnetic flowmeter. Atrial fibrillation was compared with rhythmic atrial pacing at similar heart rates (207±12 vs. 204±12 beats/min). During maximal coronary dilatation, coronary resistance was 0.38±0.05 mm Hgxminx100 g/ml (RU) at sinus rhythm, 0.41±0.06 RU at atrial pacing, and 0.52±0.07 RU at atrial fibrillation, that was significantly (p〈0.005) higher than during sinus rhythm and atrial pacing. Accordingly, coronary oxygen extraction was 14±1% at sinus rhythm, 17±1% at atrial pacing (p〈0.005 vs. sinus rhythm) and 27±2% at atrial fibrillation (p〈0.001 vs sinus rhythm and atrial pacing). Beta-adrenoceptor blockade with propranolol (1 mg/kg i.v.) did not prevent this coronary vasoconstrictive effect. Following alpha-blockade with phenoxybenzamine (10 mg/kg i.v.), however, coronary resistance was 0.52±0.08 RU during sinus rhythm, 0.54±0.10 RU during atrial pacing and 0.57±0.09 RU during atrial fibrillation. The data suggest coronary vasoconstriction induced by atrial fibrillation mediated by an alpha-adrenoceptor mechanism.

    Notes: Summary Studies were carried out in 39 barbiturate-anesthetized dogs to determine whether the renin-angiotensin system is important in control of hemodynamics and coronary flow during myocardial ischemia. Plasma renin activity (PRA) was 2.2±0.4 ng·ml−1·hr−1 immediately before coronary artery occlusion (CAO) and increased to 3.8±0.5 (p〈.005) 15 minutes after CAO. In nephrectomized dogs, PRA was 0.76±0.14 ng·ml−1·hr−1 two hours after nephrectomy and remained unchanged after CAO. In contrast, hemodynamic changes following CAO were similar between nephrectomized and intact dogs: mean arterial pressure fell from 126±4 pre CAO to 116±4 mm Hg post CAO (p〈0.005) in nephrectomized dogs and from 130±11 to 120±11 mm Hg (p〈0.005) in intact dogs. Left atrial pressure rose from 5.4±0.9 pre CAO to 7.7±0.9 mm Hg (p〈0.005) post CAO in nephrectomized dogs and 6.3±1.3 to 9.0±1.8 mm Hg (p〈0.005) in intact dogs. Heart rate remained unchanged in both groups. In sham-operated dogs without CAO, neither the angiotensin II blocker Saralasin nor the converting enzyme inhibitor Captopril had significant effects on systemic (SVR) and coronary (CVR) vascular resistances. In contrast, in dogs with CAO, these drugs reduced CVR from 1.28±0.13 mm Hg·ml−1·min·100 g heart weight (resistance units=RU) to 0.85±0.08 RU (p〈0.05) (Saralasin) 15 minutes after treatment and from 1.17±0.09 to 0.88±0.08 RU (p〈0.025), (Captopril) respectively. However, only Captopril reduced SVR, from 10.7±1.13 to 8.2±0.8 RU (p〈0.025). Both Captopril and Saralasin induced a significant increase in collateral blood flow. Nephrectomy, two hours prior to CAO, significantly reduced the effect of Captopril on CVR and collateral blood flow while the effect on SVR persisted. Thus the reduction in CVR appears to be an effect of inhibition of the renin-angiotensin system; this system participates in control of CVR during CAO and may limit coronary collateral blood flow.

    Notes: The occurrence of instabilities in chemically reacting systems, resulting in unsteady and spatially inhomogeneous reaction rates, is a widespread phenomenon. In this article, we use nonlinear signal processing techniques to extract a simple, but accurate, dynamic model from experimental data of a system with spatiotemporal variations. The approach consists of a combination of two steps. The proper orthogonal decomposition [POD or Karhunen-Loève (KL) expansion] allows us to determine active degrees of freedom (important spatial structures) of the system. Projection onto these “modes” reduces the data to a small number of time series. Processing these time series through an artificial neural network (ANN) results in a low-dimensional, nonlinear dynamic model with almost quantitative predictive capabilities.This approach is demonstrated using spatiotemporal data from CO oxidation on a Pt (110) crystal surface. In this special case, the dynamics of the two-dimensional reaction profile can be successfully described by four modes; the ANN-based model not only correctly predicts the spatiotemporal short-term behavior, but also accurately captures the long-term dynamics (the attractor). While this approach does not substitute for fundamental modeling, it provides a systematic framework for processing experimental data from a wide variety of spatiotemporally varying reaction engineering processes.
