Abstract: The present invention relates to the catalytic conversion of hydrocarbons for generating a gas that is rich in hydrogen, to the use of said apparatus and to a process for generating hydrogen. The apparatus comprises a reforming catalyst (5), as well as a means (8) for supplying hydrocarbons to the catalyst. The reforming catalyst is arranged in an exhaust pipe (3) through which the exhaust gases of combustion processes are passed.
Abstract: Efficient sequence specific gene silencing is possible through the use of siRNA technology. By selecting particular siRNAs by rationale design, one can maximize the generation of an effective gene silencing reagent, as well as methods for silencing genes.

Abstract: According to the present invention there is provided a compound in the form of a transition metal compound including a transition metal, a phosphorus containing ligand, and a cyclic organic ligand. The phosphorus containing ligand is a heterocyclic organic compound with a ligating phosphorus atom which ligates with the transition metal, and which ligating phosphorus atom is an atom in the heterocyclic ring structure of the heterocyclic organic compound. The cyclic organic ligand is a cyclic organic compound with a ligating carbon atom in the cyclic ring structure of the cyclic organic compound which ligates with the transition metal by means of a double bound. The invention also relates to a method preparing such a compound and a metathesis reaction wherein such a compound is used as a catalyst.

Abstract: New and improved systems and methods for confirming transmission of email and other similar messages (e.g., instant messages, wireless device messages, etc.). Such systems and methods includes and involve generation means for permitting a sender to generate an email message to be sent to a specified recipient via a messaging system, confirmation means for confirming that the email message is to be sent to the specified recipient by presenting to the sender a confirmation notice requesting the sender to confirm that the specified recipient is an intended recipient of the email message, and sending means for causing the email message to be sent to the specified recipient via the messaging system after the sender operates the confirmation means and confirms that the specified recipient is an intended recipient.
