In this study, we synthesized hyaluronic acid-conjugated gadolinium (HA-diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA)-Gd) and evaluated as hepatocyte-specific magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent for the diagnosis of hepatic metastasis. We conducted Fourier transform (FT)-IR analysis to determine the conjugation of

The Rare Earth Crisis—The Supply/Demand Situation for 2010–2015

The rare earth elements impact nearly everyone in the world. All of the people living in advanced technological countries and almost all those living in third world countries utilize the rare earths in their everyday living—the car that one drives (gasoline is refined from oil using rare earth catalysts and catalytic converters reduce the polluting emissions from the automotive exhaust), watching the news on TV (the red and green colors in TV screens), the telephones and computers we use to communicate (the permanent magnets in speakers and disc drives), just to name a few examples.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
